lyrics

Cover me I'm going in
Kill spray everything
Jaws lock tight
Like methamphetamine
PCP when I'm
On this beat
Pulling out flesh
When I floss my teeth
I swear to God
They want see me act up
Try to push the pacifist
To the point of dumbstruck
Like I'm gone fuck around
And rely on dumb luck
Put the body in a bin
And leave it for a dump truck
Must think I'm stupid
Like I'm gonna use this life
On the worthless type
And then lose my life
On mandatory twenty five to life
Like my pride's worth it
N***a, yeah right

Still young enough to shoot for dead at 27
And that's the only way they'll ever mention me with legends
27 candles 21 gun salute
27 candles and
I'm still as statues

I've got an obsession with death
Well who doesn't it?
Mine is more about
Keeping control on who does it
State sacrifice
Call it execution
I know enough to keep an eye
On who is eyeing what I'm doing
Paranoia
Extra precautions
Pardon my pause
I think hear somebody coming
Right around the corner
It's as good as over
Don't bother calling police
Call a coroner

Still young enough to shoot for dead at 27
And that's the only way they'll ever mention me with legends
27 candles 21 gun salute
27 candles and
I'm still as statues

Live fast and die young
That's the anthem
Die young, dude
You'll sell more albums
Still young enough to die as old as Hendrix
Then it's R.I.P. Bizzy
Now your legacy is endless
You can blame it all on manicdepression
You can blame it all on my new obsession
Self destruction
Passive aggression
Always being told
Never learn my lessons
Never been shit
Might never be shit
Still not gonna let it end like this
Keep this bit of pride wrapped inside my fist
Just to keep the suicide off my wrist
I am not sure of anything that happens
I am steadfast stand by my actions
If I make the list of dead at twenty seven
Burn the fucking corpse
And throw a party like I'm living

Still young enough to shoot for dead at 27
And that's the only way they'll ever mention me with legends
27 candles 21 gun salute
27 candles and
I'm still as statues
