| Live by the sword, die by the sword so I traded my pistola for a QWERTY keyboard A life on the run pays little reward I don't need a gun, son, if I rely on the Lord...
Anytime I'll change a rhyme with a line-swap right there but I never could make a bullet stop right there I watched a grown man belly-flop right there and I shoulda, coulda, woulda closed shop right there You ever laugh at the time, but later on you cried 'cause you finally realized that a person had died Two things you can't take back, homicide and suicide Growin' up dyin'...livin' in the East Side
C'mon baby-girl, we can make a new start You're the only one I love, I never wanna be apart I'll always play my role if you always play your part Never will I ever be the one to break your heart You ever cool at the time, but later on you feel ill 'cause you know you took advantage of somebody's goodwill Didn't physically hurt 'em, more like an emotional kill Growin' up dyin'...livin' in Capitol Hill
Thank you, Lord, for turnin' me around for pullin' me up before I finally drowned for helpin' me stand before I'm put in the ground and for allowing me to hear salvation's beautiful sound You ever glance at yesterday and the way you were livin' and wonder why those cards were the ones you'd been given and know you did wrong, but doin' right keeps you driven Growin' up dyin'...but I know I'm forgiven |
