Sacrifice Or Murder

I killed my son I sacrificed my little one So I could continue to party He was to be just like his daddy Smile and chase girls like his many god-daddies I killed my daughter It’s like I brought my baby girl to the beach And held her head under the water Like I put poison in her bottle I gave my seed cyanide in a water bottle Heartless bastard What kind of man kills his seed What possesses his heart to commit such a deed Lord forgive your son and daughter Who killed her son Who killed his daughter We slit his wrists Though there were no wrists to slit Yet we put razors to her tiny hands Cause he would mess up our plans We should’ve made it work Looking back I’d make it not hurt To take her life I would’ve done my baby right I’d been just like my daddy Teach my boy to swim Teach him to shave and drive I’d teach my baby girl to ride her bike Tell her that little boys were evil I want my “daddy’s girl” I want my son to see this world Parents from two islands, paradise Life would be a walk through paradise But our seed is gone That dream is done That nightmare now relived Spiritual pain now received Mommy’s gone Our love is done We sacrificed you To murder our love We sacrificed our love To murder you
