Given a Break (Angel of Sadness)

If we lost our lives for every mistake we made We wouldn't make mistakes So I'mma give them a break Some say my soul may perish in flakes So for now I'mma cherish these blue lakes Later I'mma give them a break You living right, Die any given night Dig up your corpse, no remorse Mistake for mistake Now I'mma give em a break I script my soul, this uncherished life on blank disc Lie killed, smothered by the only blanket this fire missed Taken by the same barrell you kissed Come back in twenty years if your truly missed U.P.D harrassing me Patting me down, chestising me Claiming they smell marijuana Different topic if you choose to sell at a beach in Laguana I've never puffed a blunt Never gripped a new port Should I ever bluff a stunt But I got better things to do than sue the courts Duck tape ankles to knees Hands to thighs Let their flesh dangle in ease so simple to please No demands, my spand to die Pulled me over nine times in seven days Twice in ten minutes Stressed my shoulders, I'mma define crime, murder, each in in eleven ways Roll the dice, darkness begins Uniformed body's being pulled up by janitors and tenants I work my anus off, literally I work it off Taking 17 hours, working 3 jobs 70 hours of production a week For this promise I will keep Your nightmares Are preminitions of me coming for you during sleep
