I Don't Want 2 Die - Mark Morrison, DMX

I once read in the Bible, wages of sin is death

So I made a vow to try to live my best

Cause the life I was living

Paths I chose was wrong

I guess I was forsaken

So I’d write this song

Y’all see

I don’t to die, because

I, don’t want you to cry

Y’all see

I don’t to die, because

I, don’t want you to cry

Who God blessed, no man cursed

That’s my favorite verse

As I wake every morning,

That’s the lines I rehearse

Cause I know what I’m facing

And I know what they’ll say

What you reaps what you sow

Those words haunt me each day

Y’all see

I don’t to die, because

I, don’t want you to cry

Y’all see

I don’t to die, because

I, don’t want you to cry

There is no smile on my face no laughter in my eyes

As they see them go to waste, but after a nigger dies

Then you get the picture I’ve been trying to show you for longs

Niggers know don’t touch the floor cause I’m the strongest

But strongest, way you fake niggers make niggers, let them have it

Reaching for the flame, let them grab it

What you don’t know is gonna get your hurt

5 years later, shit, you dirt

Back to the essence, presence is gone

Cask out the reverence the reference is strong

We all knew it was wrong

But it would still happen

And the punk mutherfuckers that did it still strapping

Like they can’t get it, but they will

Niggers talk about doing something but they chill

Cause they know like I know the black albino

Is coming through like a rhino

Y’all see

I don’t to die, because

I, don’t want you to cry

Y’all see

I don’t to die, because

I, don’t want you to cry.
