Dead man
who am I
I am the man that was killed
not by murder not by homicide
suicide did the trick
suicide was the answer to all my problems
only because of the simple fact that
someone else would have in a long run
so that is why it had to be done
and though I am going straight to the ground
it is not worth it but I didn't realize it
til' I was cursed to spend the rest
of my life walking the earth
I am still a
'Dead man'

Label Me A Legend
smell of blood
sight of blood
walked into the zoo today walked out covered in tiger's blood
stomping hearts and killing tiger love
in the eye of the tiger i wonder if he saw a thug
or a political nigger who just
really hates you because
you were at the top of the food chain but
it happened so fast
that you had no chance to brag
i hope that when they put you to rest in that dark pit
will you go to a better place or be only surrounded by darkness
no pun intended but just to end it all my friend
all the people of my culture will label me a legend
