[Eb]
[Fm]
[F] I'm just [Eb]
a man with a gun in hand [Cm] protecting what I love, with a daily off I [Ab] plan to persevere
and stay [Fm] above, cause at any time the boss could come tumbling down and knock you off
the top of the ladder, back down to the [Eb] ground, and now you're back to point A for the strike
again, US society don't like you though they might [Fm] pretend to, we don't fight what men
do, but damn it's reality and I'ma do the best I can and not become [Cm] a casualty and stand
up for my faculty at any time required, hammers cocked back, [Eb] the devil aimed and [Fm] fired, just
another buried sin, till my life comes to [F] an end, lost my fill of boring once around
the age of 9 [Eb] or 10, they gave up half my soul when I lost my closest friend to his brother
who went from young as the oldest [Fm] kid, every day and every night of my life, my sanity
is standing on the edge, slipping over the [Cm] ledge, while mama prays I find to keep mama
right, sneaking with my lead under my [Eb] head, quick to hop out the [Fm] bed, and point naming
every noise in the night, pacing my [F] house to sell, I get my armored vest, box of socks
and [Eb] cortez, been infected by last [Cm] poison despite, since I loved a man spread full of [Eb] lead, fled
and left him for [Fm] dead, show a little mercy lord, you did [F] drop us in the middle of some
dirty wars, I don't [Eb] lose a brother still I give my love to you, please understand my
actions stem from what these [Ab] judges do, in 98 [Fm] when Blackbird died, yeah I cried, in 99
[F] I cried again, after Raymond died, for several [Eb] years shed so many tears they dried up, pain
manifested to anger that keeps me fired up, yeah I [Fm] swallowed great jokes when I'm with
the homies, but when alone I'm in the zone, if you would wanna know me, I'm murder [Eb] prone
every time I step outside my home, law enforcement I despise, make them [Bbm] taste their own, bad
medicine [Fm] they force on citizens every day, can never [F] lock them in the cage, watch them
beg and pray, [Eb] humiliate them, strip them butt naked, bend them over, make them bow four times
for the fallen soldiers, use a [Fm] broody gun to break their bones, hold them to us, then
shock them with a taser gun, while we spray the guts, peppers for [Cm] the eyes, blind and
a throat till they can't breathe, then let them die slowly [Eb] knowing that they can't leave,
[Fm] defend and shock use their own gun to shoot them in the gut, release an acid from their
stomach that'll eat them up, [Cm] and to anybody questioning my way [Eb] of thinking, obviously
having smoked [Eb] the death these demons raping, [Fm] every day and every night of my life, my sanity
is standing on the edge, looking over the ledge, [Eb] while mama [Cm] prays I find the key by my right,
sweep her with my lead under my [Eb] head, quick to hop out the bed, [Fm] and point an aim at every
noise in the night, [F] they say my house was a spot, in my armored vest, box of socks and
cortez, [Cm] made infected by last poison despite, since I let the man spray it, pull the [Eb] lead
flat and left her for dead, [Fm]
