Write Of Passage Piece
As I begin my journey home..My insides burn alone
While my outsides cold enuff to turn to stone
Emotions so deep..a certain tone.. its like I need a boat to help me paddle
By myself I travel..thinkin bout life and how my wealths unravelled
Nice house..wife n kids..nice car..life is rich
But its true that strife exists..and I aint the type to bitch
One problem ignites a switch..my brains desire
Im jus the same..a liar..obsessed with games of fire
Flames are prior..to what should come first in life
As I head to the gas station..another blood thirsty night
Approach the house…what im about to create is amazing
Games that im playin..minutes later its blazin
Show no hate as I gaze in..death of an unsuitable youth
Kid deserved it for fuckin my niece..what a beautiful truth
Amends is born..my revenge was sworn
I never go back on my word..now the end has dawned
Alacahol effected worse..until you could no longer detect my words
Thas about the last thing I remember..until the next I heard
Woke up in pain..as i go to leave my bed
I realize I cant.. im strapped in from my knees to head
Please I beg..id rather not breathe, be dead, ..than cover this pain
I hear my lovers name..read out..trouble became
I turn my head to the side ..see my wife n child
I dunno whas happenin..they coverd in burns..life is wild
Doctors and police approach..as they see I’ve come around at last
I fear last nights attack had gone wrong..and sorrows have drowned my laughs
Quickly recovered...surived...unlike my kid n my lover
Cared for’em like I did for my mother..now my fate was the decision of others
I finally was fit for interview..the police came
As that night lives in my mind like a freeze frame
Guilt ridden..the truth is the only option to tell
But by the time id told’em wha happened..i was thrown in a cell
Meetin with pshychiatrists..soon an appointment wit court
guilty was definate ..coz it was me who the evidence pointed towards
Told’em I didnt burn my own home..and it was revenge for my sisters daughter
That it was sumone elses house victim of the flames..there existence slaughterd
Court didn’t believe me either..i was sentenced to death
6 months later I sat there in that dreaded chair..no incentive was left
After all id been told..id come to terms with the truth
It was my own home..when I climbed and started burnin the roof
My own wifes killer..I cant be forgiven for sins
So evil…you cant understand how im livin within
All of a sudden the electric chairs switched on..ppl laugh and applaud me
As lifes drains away tho..my life passes before me
My child hood to bein a father..respectable right?
Now I sit here…simply rejected from life
All of a sudden the end approaches..my wife stands
I guess I killed the reason for my life..damn
But sumtihns not right with this picture..on this night with no hope
She got a petrol can and she don’t drive..a lighter..she don’t smoke
the wife took vengenance upoin the pyromanic husband of hers
the pyro remembered what he had done, but it was becoming a blur
the police locked him up, not wifey? but evidence? no traces
he pleaded innnocent, stared in to the juries empty faces
but the wife had commited the captial sin..........................
