Letra de Pay in Blood
Well, I'm grindin' my life out, steady and sure Nothin' more wretched than what I must endure I'm drenched in the light that shines from the sun I could stone you to death for the wrongs that you doneSooner or later, you make a mistake I put you in a chain that you never will break Legs and arms and body and bone I pay in blood but not my ownNight after night, day after day They strip your useless hopes away The more I take, the more I give The more I die, the more I liveI got somethin' in my pocket make your eyeballs swim I got dogs could tear you limb from limb I'm circlin' around the Southern Zone I pay in blood but not my ownA low cards are what I've got But I'll play this hand whether I like it or not I'm sworn to uphold the laws of God You can put me out in front of a firin' squadI been out and around with the risin' men Just like you, my handsome friend My head's so hard, must be made of stone I pay in blood but not my ownAnother politician comin' out the abyss Another angry beggar blowin' you a kiss You got the same eyes that your mother does If only you could prove who your father wasSomeone must of slipped a drug in yer wine You gulped it down and you cross the line Man can't live by bread alone I pay in blood but not my ownHow I made it back home? Nobody knows Or how I survived so many blows? I been through hell, what good did it do? You bastard! I'm suppose to respect you!I'll give you justice, I'll fathom your purse Show me your moral that you reversed I hear me holler, I hear me moan I pay in blood but not my ownYou get your lover in the bed Come here, I'll break your lousy head Our nation must be saved and freed You been accused of murder, how do you plead?This is how I spend my days I came to bury, not to raise I'll drink my fill and sleep alone I play in blood but not my own
