[Intro]

Murder One, Murder One

Murder One in the first degree


[Verse 1]

I've been re-birthed by the fire, live in stereo roots

And we the street prophesiers, screaming truth to the youth

So bring it on Babylon, you wanna come test me?

'Cause I'm gonna break you off proper, most definitely

With this raised power fist, my freedom for a death wish

I sign my life on the line, then seal it with a kiss

See I know this, ready to die for my belief

'Cause this is Murder One coming in the first degree


[Pre-Chorus]

Murder One, Murder One

Murder One in the first degree


[Chorus]

What does it mean, if you don't really want it?

With all these things in my mind that are going on

Don't bother wasting my time, your falling down by the waste side

Falling down by the waste side

This is the last time I feel I can run it

Don't wanna try 'cause you know I'm gonna blow it all

If it's alright with you, I think I'd rather just stay blind

I'd rather die than to let it go


[Verse 2]

This is for the soul rebels and the sole survivors

Still waving on their flags after these fakes retire

One love magnifier, pass the real, light the wire

So all you naturalistics can get a little bit higher

This is the revolution, the sounds of execution

And I'm known to keep it moving, so don't ask me how I'm doing it

Guilty as charged and even if they sentence me

I'm gonna plead the fifth, face the judge and take the penalty


[Pre-Chorus]

Murder One in the first degree


[Chorus]

What does it mean, if you don't really want it?

With all these things in my mind that are going on

Don't bother wasting my time, your falling down by the waste side

Falling down by the waste side

This is the last time I feel I can run it

Don't wanna try 'cause you know I'm gonna blow it all

If it's alright with you, I think I'd rather just stay blind

I'd rather die than to let it go


[Bridge]

I don't care what they say, this is real

That's the thing that's keeping me alive, that's the truth

That's the stuff that I believe in, ain't no turning back from this point

I've been through the fire, I don't wanna go back

I know in what I believe, and I'm willing to lay my life down for the things that I believe

And you can never take that away

I'll never let it go


[Chorus]

What does it mean, if you don't really want it?

With all these things in my mind that are going on

Don't bother wasting my time, your falling down by the waste side

Falling down by the waste side

This is the last time I feel I can run it

Don't wanna try 'cause you know I'm gonna blow it all

If it's alright with you, I think I'd rather just stay blind

I'll never let it go

I'll never let it go (Let it go)
