Dead Prez - Scared To Die Lyrics

Lyrics Scared To Die - Dead Prez



I ain′t scared to die, I ain't got shit to lose
Plus I ain′t happy here livin' on a planet full of fools
I ain't scared to die, I ain′t got shit to lose
Plus I ain′t happy here, no, I ain't happy of your family
I ain′t scared to die, even though I wanna live
Deep down inside I'm a cross between homicidal, suicidal
′Coz I was born to give my life like the Messiah
Smokin' weed till I can? t get no high, tryin′ to ease the tension
Heavenly Father, did I mentioned in my confession
The world got me stressin', maybe death will be a blessin'?
[Incomprehensible] grew up learnin′ lessons in the street
From seminary to 72nd in Lacey in the east
Side of Oakland, California I was on my own at a early age
That′s why I'm filled with rage
I know the system is responsible
For the conditions of my black folks in the ghetto
All across America, their funk is deeper
I put the message in the music to wake you up out your sleep but
How could I keep my head above the water
When the force of the current is pullin′ me harder than I can swim?
Sometimes I feel like I oughta die the death of a martyr
Before they kill me, I'ma slaughter [Incomprehensible]
I ain′t scared to die, I ain't got shit to lose
Plus I ain′t happy here livin' on a planet full of fools
I ain't scared to die, I ain′t got shit to lose
Plus I ain′t happy here, no, I ain't happy of your family
I ain′t scared to die, I ain't got shit to lose
Plus I ain′t happy here livin' on a planet full of fools
I ain′t scared to die, I ain't scared to kill
I'm a righteous black gorilla from the hill of 72nd in Lacey St.
To all my comrades in the pen, wait for me
I swear to God, I′ma set you free
Even if I gotta lay it down in the dirt and if I′m lyin' I′m dyin'
If I′m dyin' atleast I died puttin′ in work
And if there's Hell below, we all gon' go
Death can′t hurt unless we die slow
Sometimes I look up in the mirror starin′ deep into my own eye
Searchin' for the strength to carry on
Wonderin′ if I died a physical death
Will my people remember me when I'm gone?
The ghetto is a warzone, 7200 is my head code
′Coz when the funk is on I pop the clip up in my chrome millimeter
The Grim Reaper, keep my heater in my shoulder
[Incomprehensible] soldiers at the hideout
Righteous black gorillaz 'bout to ride out, to put the smash down
Run up in the bank, yellin′,? We want the cash now?
To finance a revolutionary struggles all around
Lay it down on the ground
And if I hear the sound of a siren
I won't hesitate to get the firin' on everybody in the buildin′
Killin?, I′m a villain because I'm black
Put your hands up to the ceilin′, keep on fillin' up the sack
I ain′t scared to die, I ain't got shit to lose
Plus I ain′t happy here livin' on a planet full of fools
I ain't scared to die, I ain′t got shit to lose
Plus I ain′t happy here, no, I ain't happy of your family
I ain′t scared to die, I ain't got shit to lose
Plus I ain′t happy here livin' on a planet full of fools
I ain′t scared to die, I ain't got shit to lose
Plus I ain't happy here, no, I ain′t happy of your family
