I been thinkin I’ve never been free

And I been thinkin that I probably will never be

The confines of my reality -

All the riches in the world couldn't save my life from me

You know- death comes in threes

First Pain, then denial and grief

Maybe my soul is the fee

A requiem for the innocence of the dream

And if I ride my nine on the side of me

Pray to my .45 to survive

Either way in time, time comes to bury me

What evil lurks within the hearts of men?

Envy love lust hate, man, it all starts to blend

Brothers to enemies

Like life and death

Rendered heartless

I’m dying regardless

Maybe I should just accept it

Reflect it

Better to respect it and perfect it than reject it

It’s a lonely life

When your only and best friend is a weapon

It’s a shame

My kin throw dirt on my name

They'd break my neck

For a check

Or an ounce of respect

Yeah, Misery loves company

But it’s the loneliness that stuck with me

And if I ride my nine on the side of me

Pray to my .45 to survive

Either way in time, time comes to bury me

What evil lurks within the hearts of men?

Envy love lust hate, man, it all starts to blend

Brothers to enemies

Like life and death

Rendered heartless

I’m dying regardless

Truth be told

I traded my soul

For fools gold

And after all this stress I’m thinkin’ I’ll be blessed

Cause I’m dying regardless
