The Noose - Lyrics - Tech N9ne

I've tried writing this letter now Several times before When the party's over and the liquor is no more I tell you now that living has become somewhat a chore And following their rules is such a God forsaken bore Now I say god because I'm program but I believe in none I see no interventions and I see no holy sons And if I'm wrong then strike me down and break these breathing lungs Just take the words reverse them back upon my evil tongue I've seen children harm each other like it's second nature Some just want to watch the world burn *** upon the drums And that is why the music and the rhythm will live on Cuz chaos has a melody and death is like a song I sing, sing out to the rafters I sing Close this little chapter and I think This life is a disaster and it stings I'm trying to find a way to just sing Sing out to the rafters I sing Close this little chapter and I think This life is a disaster and it stings You seem him trying to find a way out What a world x2 I'm hanging up the noose now Waiting for the end What a world x2 I'm hanging up the noose now Waiting for the end I went to visit wounded soldiers out on Camp Pendelton And the cause of the missing limbs it meaned that it's no love like Wimbledon When they sat before me young as hell Look at me accolades like gentlemen I'm thinking that the enemy took away their ability To walk and to touch No way of rekindlin' What is now gone Unless they got money like Forest and Lieutenant Dan The war If you in a dam They have no remorse and that any minute bam That's *** off While we chillin' on tour on the bus getting sucked off Know a families greaving Because war is receding Their peeps and they crying their butts off That's why I get so much When I flow bust While we got it so good Cuz it's so rough But the young soldiers who do exactly what they are told to do Damn Do exactly what they told to do Defend their country and uphold the crew But give my one and only soul for you That's a hell of a job description I don't know if my gods with this one But I guess its the laws of sickman Sending out youngins and they fall the victims Of an evil klans plan That's why I be saying "Dwam" Cuz on 9/11 I realized our fate is in another mans hands What a world x2 I'm hanging up the noose now Waiting for the end What a world x2 I'm hanging up the noose now Waiting for the end When I see how my love ones had left I wonder how long I would fight I wonder if I would give in And let the reaper lead me into night See I got to much pride left Like my grandma that died to early Reaching for moments More but instead the cancer in her lungs took her from me We drift Naturally like two ships in the roughest of seas That's why this moments precious yet I'm to distant to feel it complete See these days I feel so disconnected It gets harder to drop to my knees I guess that's a side effect of living in generation x-y-z Obsessed with pain and greave Man I wished we were both kids again Things were simpler than 90's incident got me loosing friends to the hands Of violent men Fast Faster then speeding bullets Whizzing down alley ways So bubbly I'm waking up from this haze But only to realize the world hasn't changed Suddenly I'm not even fazed Y'all think it's the way we been raised *** it I'm sick and right back in this haze Cause this can turn out to be my last of days With a hope and a prayer Put a rope in the air But I'm just too scared Choking from the pressure While I rock this chair Swing back and forth and tempt death with a blank stare What a world x2 I'm hanging up the noose now Waiting for the end What a world x2 I'm hanging up the noose now Waiting for the end
