chorus:
i dont carry a cross
i carry my own soul across the pearly gates
waitin for an answer by the great
leavin fear and lust "on the highway"
( 0:41 - 1:38 )
i dont even have dreams anymore
cuz when i sleep
all i see is demons comin through my door
they all after me and then the sky darkens
i awake in a cold sweat with a lighter sparkin
can't turn it on
fillin all the chills coming through my bone
im alone in my own zone thinkin
what can i do to calm myself and start drinkin
all i see is movin pictures knowin my walls have eyes
i dont see dead people i see my own demise
and i dont even realize
if i have a pulse or not, its too hot to block
i feel it comin closer but it runs away
is it afraid to come after me this way
learnin each day to notice whats not even there
casualties of money that's not fair
yeah but im not one to start complainin
and i love it when it starts pourin rainin
i can feel it all over my skin
ratio from nails and veins is a pin
pull the plug on me cuz im going in
hopin i dont become another victim of the machine
chorus:
i dont carry a cross
i carry my own soul across the pearly gates
waitin for an answer by the great
leavin fear and lust "on the highway"
( 2:03 - 3:02 )
i start to wonder why should i run
if it is evil or a good entity it will still come
find me cuz of my sins
im pretty sure those are blueprints
like fingers
and im sorry but they are itchy for some triggers
they have their own mind but im the commander
lietenant
speakin to god for a lease im the tenant
all we have to look for is money money and more money
mad people shootin for it and still goin hungry
the root of all evil then reach my level
think about it motherfucker fuck the devil
have ya noticed everyone wants a piece of the kid
but since im whole i give no damn piece
i give peace a chance
yous a yes man "sir a lot like lance" now dance
see i dont like to talk a lot about my past
if you want to know somethin just stand up and ask
im the source for my power and knowledge
i get respected cuz i can school niggas like college
leave it and ill carry myself
because i dont want to count on anyone else
