Title: SOUL SOLD
Post by: Head_Fiyah on July 26, 2006, 10:11:56 PM
As the rooster yants twice
Thou art mine enemies that have
denied me thrice

For thirty pieces of silver
You sold your soul one last
time

Your belly became that of the
beast
And produced a tobacco field
Filling nostrils with smoke
On a false toke
Killing what was left of
The Surgeon General's warning
Creating global warming

As the sun moves closer to the earth
It is getting on their nerves
Melanin is rewarded
Divine blackness is awarded
Three hundred and sixty degrees
of burnin'
Shootin' an' lootin'

As the rooster yants twice
It is the eleventh hour
Thou art mine enemies whom have
denied me thrice

For thirty pieces of silver
You sold your soul one last time

For thirty pieces of silver
You sold your soul one last time

For Thirty Pieces of Silver
You sold your soul one last time
One Last Time.
