DEFENDER'S RAP

• //Verse\\
• It’s twelve in the morning. Noose round my neck.
• If momma wakes up and sees that I’m dead,
• She won’t be same because I’ll break her heart.
• So I take off the noose and I walk to the park.
• Rope dragged behind me. I cannot live blindly.
• It’s funny how death is a work of art.
• It’s funny what happens when loved ones depart.
• Guess every beginning is just a start.
• It’s one o’clock and I hop on the swing.
• My mind has gone numb. I can’t see a thing.
• I smile, and think that if life was a dream.
• I would be ok. Why can’t I scream?
• //Chorus\\
• When you life is a mess, and you’re so close to death,
• Why ain’t no one helping your pain?
• Is it because you’re the one who’s to blame?
• Funny how tears can get lost in the rain.
• When you life is a mess, and you’re so close to death,
• Why ain’t no one helping your pain?
• Is it because you’re the one who’s to blame?
• Funny how tears can get lost in the rain.
• //Verse\\
• Now it’s five o’clock. I’ve been swinging a while.
• Why do I feel so suicidal?
• I quote the Bible as take my final,
• Breaths. Death is a vicious cycle.
• I grasp the rope and put it round my throat.
• I love this Earth but now it’s time to go.
• I climb the pole and shut my eyes.
• And let go as I take my life.
• //Chorus\\
• When you life is a mess, and you’re so close to death,
• Why ain’t no one helping your pain?
• Is it because you’re the one who’s to blame?
• Funny how tears can get lost in the rain.
