Many years stuck in this field you wouldn't think that I could feel Would you believe me if I told you what I said was real I've seen the darkest side of man, you might think me a liar I watch the bodies burning when they set the world on fire
Many centuries in this penitentiary Stuck up on this post cause they wanna try and ___ me Hinder me, and never let me speak my piece Keep these secrets to myself to keep the panic off the streets I try to make a noise but I don't really have a voice If you knew the truth, could you even make a choice Or would I see my breath is wasted lost deep in time Sew my mouth up shut, Nail me up, Throw me to the side
I can see, but can't speak I can think, but can't breathe Nailed up, out here scopin Mouth sewn shut with eyes wide open [x2]
The sun beats on my head distractin me from my perception The crows keep tellin lies and feedin me with their deception I wanna break these chains, get these nails up out my back But I can't do a fuckin thing stuck on this torture rack
I seen the devestation servin this incarceration Evil come and go disguised in every single incarnation Wars fought famines sweep across the land Planes crashin people bashin seen the water from the dam So let me paint a little picture Watch the poor get poorer and the rich get richer It's a mothafuckin shame in this life game When you stuck out on your own and you can't do a damn thang
I can see, but can't speak I can think, but can't breathe Nailed up, out here scopin Mouth sewn shut with eyes wide open [x4]
