Dead Man Walking Lyrics

I don't remember my mama,
dad sold crack all night.
My life was f***** from the jumpstreet,
now this kite I write.
Never had half a f***** chance,
my whole trial I was broke.
Circumstantial that's bullshit,
my defense was a joke!
[You go in a m*********** courtroom,
with a f***** public defender - the public
defender works with the f***** D.A.!
m************ ain't got no chance, you
ain't got no money you're f*****, you're
f*****!]

Now this cell is my residence,
my address is The Row.
24 hour lock down,
when they'll kill me who knows ?

Guilty - we the unfree!
Dead men walking
Guilty - we the unfree!
Dead men walking

I'm a genius from books now,
Never read on the street.
Never lifted a f***** weight,
now my boys concrete.
Filed a hundred appeals or more,
no response from the state.
Get no phone calls or visits,
My mentality's hate!
[When I was on the street I had mother-
f***** boys, where's my b**** ? She won't
even accept my f***** phone calls! Yo,
they better not let me up out this mother-
f****, you this s***'s on, f*** that word!]

I get visits from doctors,
a***yzing the ill.
Families pray for my death now,
vengeance lays for the kill.

CHORUS

[Does the defendant have any final words
he would like to say to the court ?
Yeah, I got somethin I'd like to say. Yo,
you, judge, you a racist m***********. I
feel like bustin your m***********...no, let
me go...I'm gonna kill everyone one of you
jurors. If I ever get out of here, I'm
comin one by one and blow your mother-
f***** brains out. You m************!
No, keep your m*********** hands off!
f*** that!]
So I think 'bout my past now,
my future holds only pain.
Involuntarily drugged by the state
for years,
now I know I'm insane.
When I'm moved shackled hands and feet,
my skin's covered in ink.
I read the bible 'bout twenty-five times,
now f*** god's how I think!

[You can save all that religious bullshit,
stay the f*** out of my cell. If that priest
comes in my cell, I'm a bust him in the -
I'll break your f***** neck with my bare
hands, f*** that.]

So live your life to the fullest,
but remember don't trip.
One mistake you're my neighbor,
and there's no one here rich!
