- Bad Man
I got this girl she's not quite of woman but tries time and again
She plays with her baton and she sings all day long
And she stands up for her man
She looks the other way when I do wrong
But I know she understand
You've got a bad man on your hands
She lies under oath for myself or for both
- Carve My Name
My mother told me to stop talking about killing
So I promised that I’d give her a song
But it won’t be long cuz I aint got long cuz I’ve done wrong
And I feel as if I’m barely hanging on
If you feel like I do and there’s hollowness inside you
And you just can’t seem to get things right
Your skins too tight and it keeps you up at night
Then wrap your fists around the handle of a knife
- Desperate Lovers
I used to run to you but we're through
I used to lean on you but we're through
Today I’m going away
Cause I needed something from you
That shit you're ashamed of
That’s sick and disgusting
Your pride wouldn't let it get by
And love is not enough
- Devil Don't Cry
So I'm sittin here with ghosts again some are women mostly men
Telling me of times they have had
And I'm fantasizing about a hole in the ground
How and where I'm gonna lay myself down and still die at 27 like we planned
Then she saw the look in my eyes
And began to sing a song I won't describe
"In another life we'll be king and queen you and I"
- State Of Nature
State of Nature
When I was growing up not long ago though it seems like it’s so far away
We played under the sun we didn’t plug ourselves in were made to pray at the end of the day
Now everything changing these people aren’t real and our children are dying
Cuz they’re hard and don’t feel and its lie and its cheat and its steal and its kill
And its mothers go bury your sons
- Take It
Woke on the left side of the bed today that still won’t go away
And although I’m shamed of this new world I’ll do another day
A kid gave me his soul today and I took it to the man to pay
My part of the deal we made but it still won’t go away
Take it
They try to take the light so I can’t see
They try to take the clothes off of me
- War Outside
War Outside
Oh here goes another gift for this world
This world that keeps filling my body with holes
My scars they itch and I pick my scabs and I grow
While they all try to cut my throat
But god aint gonna let me go to my grave
- Write About Us
"Write About Us"
I hail from a place where nobody wants to come
Cuz you better bring a gun and you better not run
And I grew up with the pushers and the killers and the thieves
But some students and some artists and some workers knew me
And we all had that in common and we had this place
And we’d grow up to be dead because our city breeds hate
