loss of life
For love may be deeper than bragging rites
But it wasn't love that dressed you in black and white pyjama stripes
Took the bat and made all strikes
It all crumbled over in one single night
Stepped in the ring for your first title fight
Didn't it sting? He's a thing called life
Did you not hear the ding? He's won 25 fights.
Or am i mistaken? Thought i heard 25 to life.
Held at a stop sign you ignored their right
Full speed ahead. Called it, "...one drunken night"
Now one kids dead but two lost their life
All because you sped...

Silence is deadly
correlation to hate, stationed at fate
manipulation is the bait;
states changing state;
shooting down men in capes.
fight the power but its too late
paid at a 12 percent rate
leant to arming states; alarming waste
to stylin' debates of hunger upstate
made men can make
but can he make man great before its too late?
Was it his fate to take the ticket to poverty state?
A vacation he wasn't proud to take
inflation taking his home away
wishing he just flown away
instead he's stoned; mind blown away,
left alone to stay;...
