."MY LAST WORDS"
Razor wire fence
I'm held in suspense
Surrounded by concrete and steel
held to surrender to your will.
Premeditated hate
I await my fate
and here I am to face
your execution date.
Step off in a room
I feel the doom
and I look around
as your strapping me down.
Strapped to a table
completely unable
my last words will be heard
I will speak them loud
and hold my head proud
and then I'll say.
An eye for an eye
America will cry
but I'm here to say
that that's a lie
for a rich man will walk
and a poor mand will die
and this we can't deny
nor can we justify.
Worst of the worst?
Yeah maybe so...
for its a lawyer
that put me here
on death row.
He was assigned by the state
to determine my fate.
I was poor white trash
baby just another junky
and that's why you assigned me
a two bit flunky.
And I knew...
I knew at first glance
that I didn't stand
any kind of chance.
