Not even for a second when he wake up did he ask If today was gonna be his last An average day in the middle of a life Terminated by a sharp knife Killing, spilling the liquid blood As his boyz found him lying face down in the mud You might say this song is in poor taste But I must discuss the waste
[Chorus I:]
Of lives of friends that I have lost Who pays the price, who pays the cost Can't cry, just anger till the end It burns inside to lose a friend
Walking thin lines, anything to cop a dime Labelled habitual, a loser three times Just fucking' around, knuckles bloody to the bone Whatever, the future's unknown Unless you believe in predestination of fate The letter read termination It was fucked up I couldn't make out his face Through the blod, what a fucking waste
[Chorus I]
[Chorus II:]
My friend was there until the end (my friend) Can never be replaced The pain that I taste (It's over) What a fucking waste
[Chorus I]
Cold blooded murder, suicide, another body laid to rest Untimely demise, homicide, my faith is put to the test Is there a god, sometimes I just can't believe My friend who is dead was shot and then robbed Something quite hard to conceive People dying everyday there's got to be a better way The losses blow my mind away, the stain of blood will always stay Like the memory of a friend who stood with me until the end The losses blow my mind away, the stain of blood will always stay
[Chorus I]
[Lead]
It's not for me that I grieve, but for the families left berieved I question whether life is fair, I wonder if I even care We think we know what life is worth until they lower us beneath the earth Mother crying, forever hurt, my face like stone I shavel dirt
