4/22/14 Straight Pyro! By LeVae Ejon

They call me a pyro! I admit that's what I was
was known as a church boy now it's "hey fire bug!"
They said "if I did it before, I'll do it again!"
I doubt it! not after doing 18 years in the pen.
They say I'm crazy, and out of my rabbit as mind,
say I cant get paid, cause I'm profitting off my crime.
Im telling my story, hopefully itll help someone learn.
you wanna roll the dice? or skip your turn?
The label I have believe me! its not pretty,
having to register as an arsonist, in every damn city
where I live, and if theres a fire nearby
I better have, one good damn solid alibi.
Im not known as Levar, Im known as an inmate,
by my CDC number, by burning up wooden gates,
by all the monikes they game me, sparky, torch,
neighbors scared of me, fire kept em on the porch
Didn't get paid by the city, to put on a spectacular show.
got paid by the state with a 21 year sentence, 3 years parole
They say Im crazy, and Im really a psycho,
made my own damn fireworks! hes a straight pyro.
