lyrics

VERSE 1
I was born in the city, it wasn't pretty dawg.
My life fallin' through the crack that I'm smokin' on.
Rationalizing everything that I knew was wrong.
Sippin' sin 'til it baptized me, wrapping myself in these chains...
And I'll be gone in a minute.

Sin called... I heard.
Compromised my heart for a pile of dirt.
One wrong, turned right...
a second later I can't even tell wrong from right.
Top speed, downhill.
A little anger turns quick into the thought to kill.
A couple blunts, a couple pills,
a couple lines, just to cover up how I feel.
I'm wrong and I know it, but I can't even care no more.
I'm just tryin' not to show it... wonderin' what I'm livin' for?
Stuck in between my faith and my demons, and I'm
kickin' and screamin' just lookin' for meaning in life.
Too proud to believe in a God I ain't seein'
still I want it even though I'm...

HOOK
A slave tonight, free in regard to right.
Thinkin' I'm lovin' every minute.
A slave for life, and I can't even see the light.
But I'll be gone any minute.

VERSE 2
Forget the God-thing...
If anything's raining down on me from heaven, it's a lot of pain.
But in the end, I'll be wonderin' what it was I gained
from fillin' my life with the things of which I'm now ashamed.
What if in the end I find I'm wrong,
and I ain't got nothin' left?
When everything I loved is dead and gone,
and the paycheck to my sin is death?
God you see what I've been through
and all this life that I've ruined.
Where all these things that I don't want to do,
is what I find myself doin'.
But I'm free! And I love it!
I've seen God and I want some more of it!
I'm still a slave... just a different master.
But I've never worn chains that felt so free!!!

HOOK
