The story of a man in prison, facing his destiny after murdering his wife and son.
Thick Shady, the slim shady from a mirrored universe..Or, the complete opposite, I dunno
Thick Shady sounds like Slim Shady only with a few more pounds, and some really whack rhymes.
Story behind the song
I was motivated by Immortal Technique's "Dance with the devil" which is a song that tells an amazingly vivid story. I wanted my track to tell a story
Lyrics
So I sit here,
behind bars, tellin the tale..
why I'm here, in the first place,
watchin all these bars melt..
the cold rain outside,
freezes my jail cell...
My heart lay colder,
alive or dead, I can't tell...
It was a monday,
yo, I remember it clear..
she was on my ass all night,
forgetting all the blind fear..
I said for her to watch it,
she's bein too damn loud,
so get back on the damn couch
before I punch her in her damn mouth
And then I hit her...
what the fuck have I done???
before I knew it,
I was dazed,
loadin bullets in a warm gun
I saw her cryin,
tears flow mixxin with blood,
I closed my eyes,
wouldn't open till I knew it was done...
I pulled the trigger..
sat back, mouth open,
stunned...
I turned around..
hands still covered in blood,
I felt the rage..
hand shakin holdin the gun..
I know she's done..
one down,
next is my son
So I'm facin, all the charges
for those crimes I did in life
I regretted
Locked and loaded
cell block lonely
whole life wasted
on a single moment
So I'm facin, all the charges
for those crimes I did in life
I regretted
Locked and loaded
cell block lonely
whole life wasted
on a single moment
----
As I walked away,
my legs sway,
head spun, in a daze.
my body crashed in the walls,
pictures fall, and glass breaks...
I looked down,
I see his face...
an image burned inside my brain,
a moment that'll never fade..
the burdon of my lifes mistakes...
I push through it..
I ignore the cries...
I open his door,
I take notice to the night light..
It's little horses,
dancin together in the lamp light...
wavin goodbye,
to my lifes one and only pride...
I just smile,
and I cover his eyes...
drop the gun,
to make room for the butcher knife...
I plundge down,
the moments blur echoes sound,
it aint words..
It's slurs that I can't work out
I feel him movin,
like a kid who can't swim
so he drowns...
the movement slows,
his destiny awaits in the ground
Chorus 2x
I run as fast as I can from the scene of the crime...
I see cars passin by,
red and blue strobin street lights...
what the fuck have I done??
I killed my son and my wife,
my baby girl with a gun,
my baby boy with a knife...
I took their life..
And now they gonna take mine..
I'm gonna fry...
A thousand volts,
until my blood dries...
I had to hide..
a place to keep my head dry...
to be alone...
to face these thoughts I can't hide..
they're alright..
they ghost watchin me through the fog..
I'm down here..
stranded as I run from the dogs...
I'm fucked up..
I lost everything that I got...
they caught up...
so here I sit, facin the charge...
Chorus 2x
