If They Charge You

If they charge you, you’ll be in jail
Maybe prison most of your life is gone
Straight down the drain
If they charge you you’ll learn the 
Hard way the guilt you told the pity 
I felt its you not me im the good one 
You’re the bad one you could of prevented 
This all with the most simplest calls if 
You would of thought of the consequences
You could of saved one more life then you did
Your lucky to be here 
But if they charge you your better off dead 
you’ve thrown your life away 
If they charge you you’ll see why 
Were empty you’ll feel it all
You have a slight chance to get way only cuz
The test came up clean 
If you lie you’ve hurt yourself  just think 
About the mistake that got you here 
So if they charge you that means you
Came clean which means you did the right thing
You told the truth and that’s why they charged you.

Without a Care

It's here, nor there,
when living on a prayer.
Rolling on,
without a care.
I watch, 
as you live out your nightmare.
One bad dream,
the worlds become.
But who should complain;
the damage already done.
Like you; I've turned my back,
you're way to serious.
And I'm having to much fun.
Living life under the smoking gun.
I depend on life itself,
you're to worried about collecting wealth.
Now you're the ones sitting on the store shelf.
Sold to the highest bidder,
They're not broke, but they are fibbers.
Making promises they won't deliver.
Yet they label me, the sinner.
As they sell the country, up the river.

Rest In Peace

walking out your house 
taking out the trash
BOOM!!
a gun shoot
laying on the ground 
without you thinking twise 
your life just past by
than  in two second you see your self in the sky
your love life 
crying on the ground 
asking to Chris
what is that all about
why he din't watch over your back 
why he let them Down
but it not all like that
j.Christ just thing its time 
for you to move on to paradise
i know your with god right know 
but ima cry 
all cause i din't say good buy
