Borrowed Time

Living on the streets, I ain't got a dime
People look at me and say I'm living on borrowed time
Everything I own isn't worth a dime
Spend all my time and my money getting high
I don't really care about what people say and do
I live my life by my own set of rules
Everything I do, I'm living just to die

I'm living by the laws of a gun and a knife
Within the perimeter of this world, I just don't feel real right
I'm living by the laws of a gun and a knife
My soul cannot be tamed, I'm living just to die
I'm living by myself on the outskirts of life

Everything I say is for the make
I don't need no work 'cause I'm stealing everything
I hustle for my keep, I steal for my pay
Everything I do is what I do today
I'm coming round to take what I can take
But she's gonna be mine today
My soul cannot be tamed 'cause I'm living just to die

I'm living by myself on the outskirts of life
Within the perimeter of this world, I just don't feel real right
I'm living by the laws of a gun and a knife
My soul cannot be tamed, I'm living just to die
I'm living by myself on the outskirts of life

Around, around and down, live from state to state
I don't know where I'll be from day to day
I'm on the road, never slowing down
Don't stop for nothing for my feet get hit the ground
I'm singing with my gun, and I'm running with the best
I don't care about nothing 'cause I only care myself
Everything I do is what I wanna try

But I'm living by myself on the outskirts of life
Within the perimeter of this world, I just don't feel real right
Well, people look at me and say I'm living on borrowed time
Within the perimeter of this world, I just don't feel real right
I'm living by the laws of a gun and a knife

With a gun and knife, that's all I need
I kiss that sweet knife and I take her where I need...
