Tied To The Whipping Post Lyrics - Singles - King 810

I sit alone in this four-cornered room 

Houses are graves for the living 

Let this dope spot be my tomb 

You can have my soul 

I don't need it where I'm going 

You can't look me in my face 

When my scars are showing 

I can't sweat through these scars 

I can't feel the wind blow 

You never get used to not feeling 

You just know you're not like them 

So I feel like everything I died for has died for me 

And I'm left here alone lost walking in the streets 

Where I've seen where men deteriorate 

And then do the same 

Before I knew it I had changed 

And I ain't going back there again 

Things are moving so fast 

For what it's worth I apologize 

I've spilled blood on God's earth 

Father please forgive me, I was born in a city 

Where if you wanna be somebody you gotta kill somebody 

(And claim the body) 

Father please forgive me, I was born in a city 

Where if you wanna be somebody you gotta kill somebody 

(And claim the body) 

(Feel like I'm dying)

(Feel like I'm dying) 

Artistic bravery 

They say to get it you gotta risk it 

I risk my life everyday 

Why wouldn't I risk this petty shit? 

Huh? 

Don't make me take aim again 

I miss my dead friends 

But I don't miss men 

So when my gun raises up 

Remember Momma couldn't raise me 

So you'll be a dead fuck 

And pardon it 

The man with the skin with all the scars in it 

My soul, my city's hardened it 

My heart, I don't know where it went! 

All I know is there's a war in my head 

My eyes don't close when I lay in my bed! 

Wish I could give my sister all the strength I posses 

And let the heroin kill me instead 

You see my grandmother was murdered 

My mother used a gun 

This killing is in my blood, it's best I don't make a son 

I'm in the mirror trying to find my father in my face 

So I can shoot myself right in that very place 

I... feel... like... I'm... dying... 

(Feel like I'm dying)
