[00:25.19]This will be my last confession
[00:26.64]This industry can leave harsh impressions
[00:29.66]I have little faith forgive me for my past discretions
[00:32.32]But we live and learn that history and past are lessons
[00:34.17]The day this is work the love of it dies
[00:38.05]A handful make it, the others will strive
[00:40.74]And hunger can drive hatred but such is just life
[00:43.33]I guess jealousy’s the curse that the struggle inspires
[00:45.70]These critics seek to break and divide
[00:49.30]I know I’m bitter but my faith is divine
[00:52.48]Take it in stride yeah I act like I hate it at times
[00:53.57]But I found love through this music and a place to reside
[00:57.84]For every friend I have an eager opponent
[01:00.82]For every cent I spent on meager components
[01:03.93]I gave something back so I don’t feel the need for atonement
[01:06.01]Cause we all get our hands dirty when we’re seizing the moment
[01:09.10]We always took the lead peers would follow
[01:12.60]And paid for everything that we cleared or borrowed
[01:15.63]If my son can benefit from what you see here my sorrows
[01:17.67]Justified, just that I might not be here tomorrow
[01:20.07]When it rains it pours, when you’re soaked and the world
[01:22.21]Tries to **** with ya, trust in ya own and yourself
[01:25.67]My biggest fears to die not knowing you well
[01:28.72]And I aint afraid to die I’m afraid of going to hell
[01:55.10]This will be my last confession,
[01:56.66]Liberty can leave harsh impressions,
[01:59.45]I have little faith forgive me for my past discretions,
[02:02.33]But we live and learn that history and past are lessons
[02:05.24]I’ve always played the hand I was given
[02:08.02]No exceptions here humanity’s driven
[02:10.79]You see all men are born equal, just the standard of living
[02:12.67]That differs between the Jewish, Adriatic and Christian
[02:15.72]I’m a logical man given to science,
[02:19.29]Forgive me I know religion inspires,
[02:22.37]But too many have government and political ties,
[02:24.85]And use state of the art war fare to bridge their divides,
[02:27.55]There’s hate crime wars on day time talks,
[02:31.01]And rape trials walk in state wide courts
[02:33.89]We don’t pray no more we only break thy laws
[02:36.24]So what this world don’t give us we going to take by force
[02:39.13]Assertion, aggressions, murder then vengeance
[02:42.12]We treat peace like it’s a term of acceptance
[02:44.96]Exception we’re not accepting if we’re searching for penance
[02:47.17]So these words are for my son so he can learn from my lessons
[02:50.42]So when it rains it pours, when you’re soaked and the world
[02:53.17]Tries to **** with ya, trust in ya own and yourself
[02:55.77]My biggest fears to die not knowing you well
[02:58.65]And I aint afraid to die I’m afraid of going to hell
