You just a broken man
With a gun in hand
Bribed by a briefcase and 100 grand
Look at the course you ran
The way you wrecked this land
Now you've come to make one final stand
[Verse 1]
So as you stand here, dead child in your arms
You'd have done anything to mind her from harm
But in the war of life, you can't always be there
So now as you cry, in your head you start to see her
She was always innocent, she was always sweet
But innocence? They've got rid of it, you fall in your dreams
They shot her with a bullet, now your head is drilling
Paid a visit to her mother, in her grave she's spinning
You're thinking that you can't move on, it's hopeless
You're sinking into quicksand, you've got to sit, focus
You've got to find her murderers, got to find a blade
And stick it in the back of their head, like they did your mate
Every time you try to get away from this life
Someone dies, and you want to reach for the light
Then you need vengeance, no time for repentance
I guess the way you left this, it's no wonder you're reckless
[Chorus]
You just a broken man
With a gun in hand
Bribed by a briefcase and 100 grand
Look at the course you ran
The way you wrecked this land
Now you've come to make one final stand
[Verse 2]
(Sung) Now you're straight back into the hood life
If you wanted to leave, you could, right? (End Sung)
Right?
Once your family's left you, your life'll be destitute
They'll have nothing to get you, you can ride away in your Lexus too
But you'll be dying of boredom, because you haven't outgrown them
Your life has been recorded, just guess what the tout told 'em
Too bad your wife couldn't have fallen in love with a preacher man
Now she's praying, summoning, calling a dove to rip the weed from your hands
How could you do this to yourself? You coulda been somebody
You're not affecting your own health, you're affecting everybody
Else
(Sung) And please, for your own sake, call the police or CIA
Then get a car and drive away onto the highway (End Sung)
You think you're fucking clever, don't you? In school you were so smart
I never knew you could turn into a fool with a cold heart
Remember what your teacher said? Don't give up on him
Son, you've lost me, your daddy's jumping off the brim
[Outro]
Dear God, I hope you haven't forgot
This young brave astronaut
