Lyrics I Don't Want 2 Die - Mark Morrison, DMX

I Don't Want 2 Die

I once read in the Bible, wages of sin is death
So I made a vow to try to live my best
Cause the life I was living
Paths I chose was wrong
I guess I was forsaken
So I’d write this song
Y’all see
I don’t to die, because
I, don’t want you to cry
Y’all see
I don’t to die, because
I, don’t want you to cry
Who God blessed, no man cursed
That’s my favorite verse
As I wake every morning,
That’s the lines I rehearse
Cause I know what I’m facing
And I know what they’ll say
What you reaps what you sow
Those words haunt me each day
Y’all see
I don’t to die, because
I, don’t want you to cry
Y’all see
I don’t to die, because
I, don’t want you to cry
There is no smile on my face no laughter in my eyes
As they see them go to waste, but after a nigger dies
Then you get the picture I’ve been trying to show you for longs
Niggers know don’t touch the floor cause I’m the strongest
But strongest, way you fake niggers make niggers, let them have it
Reaching for the flame, let them grab it
What you don’t know is gonna get your hurt
5 years later, shit, you dirt
Back to the essence, presence is gone
Cask out the reverence the reference is strong
We all knew it was wrong
But it would still happen
And the punk mutherfuckers that did it still strapping
Like they can’t get it, but they will
Niggers talk about doing something but they chill
Cause they know like I know the black albino
Is coming through like a rhino
Y’all see
I don’t to die, because
I, don’t want you to cry
Y’all see
I don’t to die, because
I, don’t want you to cry.
