10. Green Mile:
INTRO:
I see the people and they're crying for help/
so I ain't ready to die until I'm done dying to myself/
V1:
No more looking the other way first/
no more waiting on the samaritan/
no more waiting for you to care/
and debating on who should carry him blatantly its embarrassing/
"it aint my responsibility, the calling is gonna choose them"/
try saying that with a straight face/
when I pass through the great gates and he asks, whats my excuse then?/
I'm walking this Green Mile now/
but I don't see a finish line/
'cause he aint finished with me yet/
finish breakfast first that last suppers dinner time/
I see the people and they're crying for help/
so I aint ready to die until Im done dying to myself/
(2X)
POEM:
but lets be honest/
the circle of those out of reach is a diameter far superior to the sphere of those who are actually in arms length/
and the bitter irony of it all/
is that so many who are actually in arms length are so far out of touch, that they couldn't reach those without, even if they tried to/
viewing life with binoculars on backwards/
non exposure becoming non existence/
we don't stand for what we don't see/
I see the people and they're crying for help/
so I aint ready to die until Im done dying to myself/
(2X)
BRIDGE:
rarely do you see an MC out for justice
(3x)
everything is anything/
anything everything/
and all of it is only for the ones who are in reach/
V2:
When I'm dead and gone/
my vital isn't on but life within the song is ripe within it strong/
When I'm dead and gone/
I tried to end a wrong I trifled with the "johns" and fighted them with brawn/
When I'm dead and gone/
I sighted timid, calm ignited them along inspired them to spawn/
When I'm dead and gone/
my title isn't gone he knighted him a don the night'll end at dawn/
