Dead And Buried Lyrics

I'm dead and buried oh yeah

[Verse 1]
Hi, my name is Jack and I'm living proof of a dead man walking
This spirit, this body that's still talking
It's too late to take precautions my whole worlds already fallen apart, broke as easy as porcelain
And all because I didn't wear a hat when I fucked a yat
Now I wish I never even took her back to my flat
I've been cursed from my dick to the hearse, I can't think of nothing worse and it hurts
'Cos all this pain I've inflicted on myself, always thought casual sex would do me good never bad for my health
What a foolish thing to think, if I had an ounce of heart left it would probably sink, now I'm on the brink of death
Seemingly there was nothing left for me too look forward to in this life, believe
I'm at my wits end and I can no longer
Pretend to be a happy person when'.. I'm dead and buried

[Hook]
I'm dead and buried
There ain't no hope left for me in this world no
I'm dead already
Can never live in heaven when I live in hell
I'm living in hell'


[Verse 2]
Hi my name is Alex and I'm a drug addict
Name any illegal substance on this planet, I've had it
Leave anything valuable lying around and I'll grab it, I'll do absolutely anything to support my habit
'Cos without my buzz I'm a nervous wreck, an insecure smackhead running out of veins to inject
Reality checks get me so upset, gonna make me realise my life's a fucking mess and
I ain't got no where to go 'cos my Family hates me
Paranoia sets in and the whole worlds against me, so I buy another 20 bag of scag
Take it all in one go like an arsehole being fucked by a fag, and all my worries get washed away in an instant
Yo as soon as the rush hits my brain there's a distance
Between fact and fiction the truth hurts so much though I've Become a slave to this addiction
I owe dangerous people money I can't afford to pay
Every penny gets spent on this buzz my body craves
It's man made, A grade, powder with a dark shade
I'm too far gone now to ever be saved, I'm dead and buried
[Hook]

[Verse 3]
Can't tell you my name for legal purposes 'cos I'm a convicted felon
Looking at 15 years inside and I'm Only 27
Court told me they'd knock it down to at least 11, on good behaviour get bail after reduced sentence
But things ain't looking good for me back at the scrubs
Already caught up in world of violence and drugs
Walked into This shit with my eyes closed looking a mug
Came in as a man now its turning me out as a thug
I've shanked two inmates already, one of them's dead
The other's close to recovering and is after my head
There's nothing I can do now 'cos I've Made my bed
Just gonna have to lie in it and watch where I tread
Yo I made a mistake and I know that now
The only Reason I'm in here is 'cos I thought somehow that what I was doing was right
When I loaded up that shotgun and Attempted to end that mans life
Yo what the fuck would you do if you was in my position?
Found out your sisters been Beaten into submission
By her own boyfriend on the floor of her own kitchen and violently raped by him as he tells her To stop bitching
Yeah you'd do the exact same thing as me
Play God with a sawn off and cap him in his knee
You'd Chop his balls of if you had the opportunity, cut his dick in half and leave him with only an inch to pee
Only to find out That it was all in vain
'Cos your dumb bitch of a sisters got back together with him again
They're engaged to get Married, you're going insane
Contemplating a life in prison where you're gonna remain
You're dead and buried'
[Bridge]
I'm dead and buried
As good as already half dead
Dunno if I got any heart left
I'm dead and buried
As good as my time past yeah
Might as well be six feet under in a casket
I'm dead and buried
As good as already half dead
Dunno if I got any heart left
As good as my time past yeah
Might as well be six feet under in a casket
I'm dead and buried
As good as already half dead
Dunno if I got any heart left
I dunno if I got any heart left
