[Boondox - Off the Post lyrics]
Many years stuck in this field
You wouldn't think that I would feel
Would you believe me if I told
You what I said was real?
I've seen the darkest side of man
You might think me a liar
I watched the bodies burnin' when they
Set the world on fire (Oh)
Many centuries in this penitentiary
Stuck up on this post
Cuz they wanna try and censor me
Hinder me, and never let me speak my piece
Keep these secrets to myself to keep
Thе panic off the streets
I try to make a noise
But, I don't rеally have a voice
If you knew the truth
Could you even make a choice?
Or would you see my brothers wasted lost
Deep in time
Sewed my mouth up shut, nailed me up
(The Scarecrow)
I can see, but can't speak
I can think, but can't breathe
Nailed up, out here scopin'
Mouth sewn shut with eyes wide open
I can see, but can't speak
I can think, but can't breathe
Nailed up, out here scopin'
Mouth sewn shut with eyes wide open
The sun beats on my head
Distracting me from my perception (yeah)
The crows keep tellin' lies and
Feeding me with their deception
I wanna break these chains
Get these nails up out my back
But, I can't do a fuckin' thing
Stuck on this torture rack
I've seen the devastation
Servin' this incarceration evil come and go
Disguising every single incarnation
Wars start and would sweep across the land
Planes crashin', people bashin'
Seen the water from a dam i've seen it all
So let me paint a little picture
Watch the poor get poor and
The rich get richer
It's a motherfuckin' shame in this life game
When you're stuck out on your own and
You can't do a damn thang (yeah)
I can see, but can't speak
I can think, but can't breathe
Nailed up, out here scopin'
Mouth sewn shut with eyes wide open
I can see, but can't speak
I can think, but can't breathe
Nailed up, out here scopin'
Mouth sewn shut with eyes wide open
Yo whaddup, DJ Clay! Yo what's
Up man, it's ya homie, blaze!
Let 'Em Bleed, Volume 1, that's
What it's about! Come on, man!
I can see, but can't speak
I can think, but can't breathe
Nailed up, out here scopin'
Mouth sewn shut with eyes wide open
I can see, but can't speak
I can think, but can't breathe
Nailed up, out here scopin'
Mouth sewn shut with eyes wide-
