Lannie Johnson (Mr. Superintendent) (My Secret Sin)
Split two razors and a line of coke
Exhale the dimes and swallow the smoke
Nine-twenty-one, eighty-six
Gamble my life like lottery picks
Cry tears of blood and see what your god does
Bringing future problems
To those who so desperately want to solve them
And to think that I could be all but immortal
Swap Sorrow and throw my sins through a portal
How did you make my list
The elements that have gotten me pissed
Tears no longer fall from my left eye
What more can I do, besides consume meth and die
“Curious to know why”
No one wants “Sweet” to reach the top
Better yet pull out the heat and beg them to stop
Now I’m more than desperate to leave such an ungodly world
Depressed as a toddler that’s oddly curled
The accusations you brought
The courtroom battles I’ve fought
I’ll never make it to heaven
For I could never forgive you
The only punishment
Is to lift you from hell and give you
I’ve taken this community to a level
In which the sunrise ain’t even elevated, Ever!
Just another angel with forehead extensions
Suspect is inching
Next to me, your platform is a pondering invention
Only faces with political smiles receive honorable mentions
Got a purple heart, for smirking in the dark
Jotting things down with my right hand
Seems you got to fight to stand
And I’m back from the edge of town
Carrying a bloody sledge, my heavily hearted frown
