The Charge
Had a false battery
Pressing up against me
The thought is almost maddening
Stressing, getting tense
See the charge won't stop until I'm drained
Fucking up my future
My image and my whole domain
Should have called a mover
But I thought that they loved me
And getting beat was part of it
And by the time I realized and signed for my apartment
Got thrown out on the street while getting beat
Trying to save my mom
Next thing I know the police cuffing her only son
Spent the night in jail without my rights or a phone call
Couldn't stand another second staring at those stone walls
Got released on bond
Back to moms
Had to grab my clothes
Packed it in the challenger without a word and hit the road
Down to Indy for a minute then Chicago
Spending time between attorneys and trivago
Still awaiting my sentence and trial
If I go to prison and lose out on my own future again
This is the end
No I ain't perfect but look at my environment
Surviving surrounded by pious tyrants who try to end
My future and path that I alone have paved
Feels like I just dug an early grave
And all the money I've made
And all the music created
Suddenly all just goes right to waste
I'm making movements in haste
Not sure how long I'll be present
Charges back to back, a very lethal weapon
It's not my fault you pregnant at 17
With less than a present father
Slinging dope while drinking, that ain't water (Yeah)
Then you found a man that you thought you could fix
Didn't matter that he hit you and called you a bitch
Didn't matter that he came with a psychotic kid
That would try and kill anyone she could for kicks (The fuck?)
Had your own kid with him and you finally knew love
Unfortunately as that kid start to grow up
Was facing the same treatment that you swore to slow up
And now and then you'll see it and you 'bout to throw up
But never act on your instincts, must be spineless
Continuing the generational abuse, its timeless
Thought this was my time, bitch?
Said that I could shine
But when I'm getting close you'd rather see me doing time
If you have to lie, that must be fine
Try and find my peace of mind
But pieces got left behind in that cell
No I ain't perfect but look at my environment
Surviving surrounded by pious tyrants who try to end
My future and path that I alone have paved
Feels like I just dug an early grave
And all the money I've made
And all the music created
Suddenly all just goes right to waste
I'm making movements in haste
Not sure how long I'll be present
Charges back to back, a very lethal weapon
Pressing up against me
The thought is almost maddening
Stressing, getting tense
See the charge won't stop until I'm drained
Fucking up my future
