Deadman Talkin

Look who's talkin,
A deadman walkin,
Comin live from deathrow,
Payin a debt a jury says I owe,
My life, was decided by who put on the best show,
My innocence, never was an issue,
The D.A. said, "I'm out to get you,"
Now I'm waitin in the attorney line,
Behind the guilty, who admitted their crimes,
Where are the protesters for my injustice,
Where are the people I entrusted
I'ma deadman talkin with disgust,
After this, they will want to censor my written talk,
They already scan my nuts
And eye my butt,
But I have no intentions on shuttin up,
Let me tell ya, the death penalty is no deterrent
When murder continues to be a reoccurrence,
Just admit, it's revenge
A systems' means to an end,
Sin beget's sin,
Cruel and inhumane treatment is your trend
But I will bare it and grin,
Even when your torture makes me bend.
Sentenced under the Anti-Terrorism Effective Death Penalty Act,
My terror, my rights being attacked,
Suspending my due process and illegal search and seizure under your Patriot Act,
This has happened,
For talkin, I'm labeled an enemy combatant,
How do I fight against your terrorism
And state bred racism
And every one of your isms,
My public tribunal was of your peers,
Judgin me not on evidence, but, on their fears.
Instant terrorist,
Add United Snakkkes politricks,
The same Dick and Bush shit

Deadman Talkin

They fuckin you and me wit
And got me communicatin with the T.V.,
Respondin to the propaganda I hear and see.
A deadman talkin
Got to watch where he's walkin,
I live under the gun,
Walk under the gun
And sleep under the gun,
Patiently waitin on my execution date to come
And live T.V., will be banned
But I seen the execution of a woman in Afghanistan.
Yes, they will execute the innocent,
They have done it before, what makes me different?
The same they, that professed the innocence of Jews in Iran
And went as far as makin release demands,
DAMN!
And I'm a stipulated Amerikan.
Y'all don't hear me,
Did I tell ya, most pled guilty?
Society I object,
To your legal right to inject,
Me with murderous poisons,
You already got me illegally in prison,
Told me ignorance of the law is no excuse,
You should've told that to the attorney you appointed for my use
And addressed the government's misconduct and abuse.
You make 'em, you break 'em,
They are your laws,
You raised reasonable doubt and won on probable cause,
I'm too black for you to see your flaws
And the nerve of you, to require me to sign the death certificate
Or it's the choice of your wish,
Gas or electricity,
Isn't this a crime against humanity?
