We ain't so different now are we Very different very different Said the cop to the killer inside of me
I've heard your story boy that bullshit gets old
We have the right to take your life so do just what you're told
We ain't so different now are we
Said the cop to the killer inside of me
I've heard your story boy that bullshit gets old
We ain't so different now are we
Said the cop to the killer inside of me
I've heard your story boy and that bullshit gets old
We've got the right to take your life so do just what you're told
He ain't so big ****ing now is he Play the victim won't play the victim When compared to the ****er next to me She lives inside us all I've read about those storied boys what about real girls
More than a wife or giver of life those antiquated roles So Now that everybody's listening Will you shout or shut your mouth again closed mouths again
You gotta learn to accept disparity
Said my mother to the ****er inside of me
You're no guevara boy just a poor man's marx Now I think you better take a step down off that cross So that shoe doesn't fit you comfortably It don't fit you will never fit you So you're better off cutting off both your feet Bootstraps that bind us all Cause if you try to stand up you might look too tall
The bigger they are the better view we get to watch them fall So Ain't no city like the one I'm from That one time got me stressing
Hands up high praying I don't get shot Ha ha ha ha ha ha Now that everybody's listening Will you shout or shut your mouth again closed mouths again I'm a shame but you're a saint It's hard to see when you don't understand it at all Now that everybody's listening Will you shout or shut your mouth again closed mouths again I'm a shame but you're a saint
Hard to think that you'd understand this at all We don't back away we go that way now I never got it I never ever got it Who got shot today what's your body count We'll never get it you know we won't get it We don't back away we go that way now I never got it I never ever got it Who got shot today what's your body count We'll never get it you know we won't get it
Now that everybody's listening Will you shout or shut your mouth again closed mouths again I'm a shame but you're a saint
It's hard to see when you don't understand it at all Now that everybody's listening Will you shout or shut your mouth again closed mouths again I'm a shame but you're a saint
Hard to think that you'd understand this at all
