A Registered Arsonist

Here I go again 'bout to put myself on blast
A lot don't like me so y'all can kiss my ass
I been to prison 'cause a match left my hand
21 year prison sentence some time no one can stand
Came in at age 22 but people keep coming back
I never went home, now I'm known as a pyromaniac
Some people say they're scared, they say I'm crazy
Think I'll set your house on fire and kill your babies
They say I need to see a shrink and put me on meds
Need to be observed and strapped to a hospital bed
When I was 18 I developed some bad habits
I'm not that crazy till where I'll need a straight jacket
Nobody's perfect, everybody makes mistakes
Took me to come to prison to change my fate
Even though I'm an arsonist, I bet you couldn't tell
If you seen my tattoos, you'll know I got 'em in jail
A lot of people put me in the category of a killer
Say that I'm no better than a notorious drug dealer
They look at me different because of my mug shot
Because of my fingerprints now all of a sudden I'm watched
Sometimes I hate I was born 'cause my demons started this
They say I won't be shit but a registered arsonist!
