Scared To Die
Dead Prez

I ain't scared to die, I ain't got shit to lose

Plus I ain't happy here livin' on a planet full of fools

I ain't scared to die, I ain't got shit to lose

Plus I ain't happy here, no, I ain't happy of your family


I ain't scared to die, even though I wanna live

Deep down inside I'm a cross between homicidal, suicidal

'Coz I was born to give my life like the Messiah

Smokin' weed till I can't get no high, tryin' to ease the tension


Heavenly Father, did I mentioned in my confession

The world got me stressin', maybe death will be a blessin'?

[Incomprehensible] grew up learnin' lessons in the street

From seminary to 72nd in Lacey in the east


Side of Oakland, California I was on my own at a early age

That's why I'm filled with rage

I know the system is responsible

For the conditions of my black folks in the ghetto


All across America, their funk is deeper

I put the message in the music to wake you up out your sleep but

How could I keep my head above the water

When the force of the current is pullin' me harder than I can swim?

Sometimes I feel like I oughta die the death of a martyr

Before they kill me, I'ma slaughter [Incomprehensible]


I ain't scared to die, I ain't got shit to lose

Plus I ain't happy here livin' on a planet full of fools

I ain't scared to die, I ain't got shit to lose

Plus I ain't happy here, no, I ain't happy of your family


I ain't scared to die, I ain't got shit to lose

Plus I ain't happy here livin' on a planet full of fools

I ain't scared to die, I ain't scared to kill

I'm a righteous black gorilla from the hill of 72nd in Lacey St.


To all my comrades in the pen, wait for me


I swear to God, I'ma set you free

Even if I gotta lay it down in the dirt and if I'm lyin' I'm dyin'

If I'm dyin' atleast I died puttin' in work

And if there's Hell below, we all gon' go

Death can't hurt unless we die slow


Sometimes I look up in the mirror starin' deep into my own eye

Searchin' for the strength to carry on

Wonderin' if I died a physical death

Will my people remember me when I'm gone?


The ghetto is a warzone, 7200 is my head code

'Coz when the funk is on I pop the clip up in my chrome millimeter

The Grim Reaper, keep my heater in my shoulder

[Incomprehensible] soldiers at the hideout


Righteous black gorillaz 'bout to ride out, to put the smash down

Run up in the bank, yellin', â€~We want the cash now'

To finance a revolutionary struggles all around

Lay it down on the ground


And if I hear the sound of a siren

I won't hesitate to get the firin' on everybody in the buildin'

Killin', I'm a villain because I'm black

Put your hands up to the ceilin', keep on fillin' up the sack


I ain't scared to die, I ain't got shit to lose

Plus I ain't happy here livin' on a planet full of fools

I ain't scared to die, I ain't got shit to lose

Plus I ain't happy here, no, I ain't happy of your family


I ain't scared to die, I ain't got shit to lose

Plus I ain't happy here livin' on a planet full of fools

I ain't scared to die, I ain't got shit to lose

Plus I ain't happy here, no, I ain't happy of your family
