I was born in the city, it wasn't pretty dawg My life fallin' through the crack that I'm smokin' on Rationalizing everything that I knew was wrong Sippin' sin 'til it baptized me, wrapping myself in these chains... And I'll be gone in a minute Sin called... I heard Compromised my heart for a pile of dirt One wrong, turned right... A second later I can't even tell wrong from right Top speed, downhill A little anger turns quick into the thought to kill A couple blunts, a couple pills A couple lines, just to cover up how I feel I'm wrong and I know it, but I can't even care no more I'm just tryin' not to show it... wonderin' what I'm livin' for? Stuck in between my faith and my demons, and I'm Kickin' and screamin' just lookin' for meaning in life Too proud to believe in a God I ain't seein' Still I want it even though I'm... A slave tonight, free in regard to right Thinkin' I'm lovin' every minute A slave for life, and I can't even see the light But I'll be gone any minute Forget the God-thing If anything's raining down on me from heaven, it's a lot of pain But in the end, I'll be wonderin' what it was I gained From fillin' my life with the things of which I'm now ashamed What if in the end I find I'm wrong And I ain't got nothin' left? When everything I loved is dead and gone And the paycheck to my sin is death? God you see what I've been through And all this life that I've ruined Where all these things that I don't want to do Is what I find myself doin' But I'm free! And I love it! I've seen God and I want some more of it! I'm still a slave... just a different master But I've never worn chains that felt so free! A slave tonight, free in regard to right Thinkin' I'm lovin' every minute A slave for life, and I can't even see the light But I'll be gone any minute
