Album:  South of Hell
Song:   Nothing to Lose
Typed by: AZ Lyrics

Sittin' in my cell, this breakin' bar hell
Dreamin' of the days of murder enlocked in Cartel
Drive by's, date rapes, and weight like barbells
I stuck my girls throat, stuffed it in the cart well
Oh well, it's what I thought at the time
Cause in my own mind it didn't seem like a crime
It seemed to be fine all it was was good times
Shoot a bitch snort a line at the drop of a dime
Matter of fact the local mob was my first job
It's kinda easy when your killin' to rob
At least I wasn't sittin' home bein' a slob
I got up off my ass and started climbin' to the top
They color me a demon and I'm askin "How can I be?"
I know I got a heart just lack of humanity
But now my sanity is somethin' I ain't seen in a while
Sittin' on death row, this is my Green Mile

[Chorus X2]
Locked up ain't where I wanna be
Confined to my mind is like a prison to me
Since birth had nothin' to choose
I'm on the run with a gun with nothin' to lose

Childhood is to blame, poverty stricken
Add some defects to the mix and watch the plot thicken
I was sick of bein' poor, sick of just livin'
Sick of depression and this trailor park livin'
That my mamma had me stuck in and where was my dad?
I think that he forgot about the son that he had
So the chances of survival were none to slim
And my mamma keeps sayin' I remind her of him
So went from just like my dad, then I'm goin' for broke
Pulled the kick door, stabbed my neighbor in the throat
I set off on my journey just to see what I could find
Sittin' in my cell, this breakin' bar hell
Dreamin' of the days of murder enlocked in Cartel
Drive by's, date rapes, and weight like barbells
I stuck my girls throat, stuffed it in the cart well
Oh well, it's what I thought at the time
Cause in my own mind it didn't seem like a crime
It seemed to be fine all it was was good times
Shoot a bitch snort a line at the drop of a dime
Matter of fact the local mob was my first job
It's kinda easy when your killin' to rob
At least I wasn't sittin' home bein' a slob
I got up off my ass and started climbin' to the top
They color me a demon and I'm askin "How can I be?"
I know I got a heart just lack of humanity
But now my sanity is somethin' I ain't seen in a while
Sittin' on death row, this is my Green Mile

[Chorus X2]
Locked up ain't where I wanna be
Confined to my mind is like a prison to me
Since birth had nothin' to choose
I'm on the run with a gun with nothin' to lose

Childhood is to blame, poverty stricken
Add some defects to the mix and watch the plot thicken
I was sick of bein' poor, sick of just livin'
Sick of depression and this trailor park livin'
That my mamma had me stuck in and where was my dad?
I think that he forgot about the son that he had
So the chances of survival were none to slim
And my mamma keeps sayin' I remind her of him
So went from just like my dad, then I'm goin' for broke
Pulled the kick door, stabbed my neighbor in the throat
I set off on my journey just to see what I could find
I watched Scarface and knew the world was mine
As far back as I recall I was fearless
But now my death is near and it's clear that I fear this
I know that Satan's waitin' and I ain't found heaven
So I put my salvation in this chrome Mac11

[Chorus X2]
Locked up ain't where I wanna be
Confined to my mind is like a prison to me
Since birth had nothin' to choose
I'm on the run with a gun with nothin' to lose

It's about that time, I hear 'em comin' down the line
My cell door slides and I'm hopin' that it bind
I gotta make my move, it's the needle of death
About to shoot me in my veins till I take my last breath
Cold sweat bubbles up I can't stop shakin'
I gotta do somethin' keep thinkin' thinkin' thinkin'
I'm gonna die either way, nothin' to lose
I look him dead in the eye then I make my move
Kick the guard in the sternum not a second to waste
The strength of my adreneline caved his chest plate
I hit the next guard in the face with my shackles
Paint the walls dark red with blood and bone spackles
Knocked the next one off the C block balcany
I snatched his tazor gun, home free I'm about to be
Made a run for the door I didn't look back
I got shot in the back of my head and....

[Guards]
What the fuck!?! Did you get him?? Back up!!
Check his pulse!! Is he dead? Brandy, get over here
we need some help!! What happened?? Just move!!
C'mon, alright, backup!! Shit!! Son of a bitch!!
He just...He just jumped up!!

[Chorus X2]
Locked up ain't where I wanna be
Confined to my mind is like a prison to me
Since birth had nothin' to choose
I'm on the run with a gun with nothin' to lose
