Today I woke up angry And by the time I feel better it'll be too late to save me While the voice on the TV sang the ******** reasons why they think I did it. I got my snap back turned back Ready to make a head snap back When I let my rifle crack Everyone will know I did it. They will say I am mentally ill When they were the ones who gave me the **** pill Wrote depression as the cause on the itemized bill Then send my *** out for another refill. They turned the neighborhood into a war zone When the cops came to my home I would have come freely had they phoned Instead they had guns drawn, ready to unload. Hook me up to a gurney Stick me with a poison needle to send me on my final journey While a group of people look upon me Never once believing my story. The truth is, the bullet was meant for my own head But I got scared and pointed it at the window instead I shot a three year old girl as she slept in her bed When it was my own life I wanted to end. Today I woke up angry Today is the day they are going to hang me The death knell sings all around me Life's final reminder of the ******** reasons I gave not to live it.
