Die By the Gun - Bugzy Malone & TeeDee

The world around us, frozen in terror The balance of power, a thing of the past Anything human has been abandoned We're just drowning souls in a river of blood What was built up in thousands of years In just a moment is destroyed Have we lost all compassion and love Cast our souls into the void If you live by the sword - you will die by the sword If you live by the sword - you will die by the sword We're sinking deeper in a world of darkness It's kill or be killed from the day we are born We're an evil seed from the soul of a serpent An evil breed in a valley of thorns What was built up in thousands of years In just a moment is destroyed Have we lost all compassion and love Cast our souls into the void If you live by the sword - you will die by the sword If you live by the sword - you will die by the sword Blood and vengeance, iron and bone Fallen warriors, carved in stone Crush this mindless desire for blood And stop this endless crusade Conquer our instincts and lay down the steel Save our children from the blade If you live by the sword - you will die by the sword If you live by the sword - you will die by the sword

Live by the sword and help to contain the helpless minds of you all Die by my hand in pools of blood, clutch yourself as you fall Mindless tyranny, forgotten victims, children slaughtered in vain Raping the maids, in which they serve only the words of the Lord Die by the sword Die by the sword Satan watches all of us, smiles as some do his bidding Try to escape the grasp of my hand, and your life will no longer exist Hear our cry, save us from the Hell in which we live We turn our heads toward the sky and listen for the steel Die by the sword Die by the sword Watch as flowers decay on the cryptic life that died The wisdom of the wizards is only a nurtured lie Black knights of Hell's domain walk upon the dead Satanas sits upon the blood on which he feeds Die by the sword Die by the sword

Kept it movin' on my fake friends (Amen!) Dead silence never give a statement Let em watch me from the outside on the pavement Man don't need witness intimidation Be careful what you wish for (Amen) You do not want none of this war (Amen) What you clenching up your fists for? (Amen) There's about to be a real storm I was gonna ship it to the harbour (Amen) But I could hear them chatting blah blah (Amen) You better bring your body armour (Amen) Cause there's about to be some drama There's about to be some drama (There's about to be some drama) There's about to be some drama There's about to be some drama Oh my lord Drama (there's about to be some drama) There's about to be some drama There's about to be some drama Oh my lord Be careful what you wish for (Amen) You do not want none of this war (Amen) What you clenching up your fists for?

'Cause I feel alive when it all lights up Let my enemies know that I don't give a fuck When I swore to myself that I'd never look down when I first climbed I've done well for an ex gang member And I've done bits and bobs Just like what Montana done to Rebenga I'm one of the last ones standing Everyone's dead or in jail now And I've got trauma that creeps up on me That I try not to remember I was born in December, five days before Christmas day Haunted by the ghost of the Christmas past Didn't wanna blind him, so I kept my wrist tilted this way I'm not afraid to drop to my knees and pray 'Cause I never thought that I'd overcome this pain I was born in December, five days before Christmas day Haunted by the ghost of the Christmas past Didn't wanna blind him, so I kept my wrist tilted this way I'm not afraid to drop to my knees and pray 'Cause I never thought that I'd overcome this pain Yo, I've been studying psychology 'Cause I didn't wanna go and see a psychiatrist Thank God she accepted my apology 'Cause I don't even think I could do none of this From day one, she proven herself Back when I couldn't get shoes off the shelf Back when I couldn't even get into the club Didn't pop bottles, never have Louis on my belt I'm ready to make a commitment I've got trainers coming on a shipment I've got an M in one account and an M that I put into the crib, are you listening?
