Lawman -

Hey now mama, listen what I say

That old lawman he’s coming my way

He been on me since the day I was born

hunting me down till I go in the ground

I’m your son mother, and I’m a good man

I can’t do this alone here now, won’t you please hold me hand?

Darkness close around me… I can’t see the light

To me now the noon-day sun it’s as dark as the night

And in the distance I see

That lawman’s come for me

I’m always surrounded but feel out of place

It’s like I’m segregated, I’m another race

I’m feelin so tired because I never win

I never knew that being lonely is such a sin

And the tears sting my eyes

As I stare at the sky

How could I’ve ever known

He’d attack when I’s alone?

Death knocked on my door but I could not reply

I’m not bearing to live, but I’m not ready to die

It’s already over, the damage was done

I’m at the end of your smoking gun

Getting harder to breath

‘cause I’m gnashing my teeth

Hearin' voices in my head

And they want me dead
