Burdens

Living broke is like watching a film that's out of focus
 They clipped a note right on his door
 That's the eviction notice
 Down on his luck lost his job feeling kind of stuck
 D.U.I. lost his license, he used to ride a truck
 Girlfriend and two kids looking at him like
 What we gonna eat tonight?
 Baby crying everybody tight
 Chain smoking and pacing in front the building
 Stressed and feeling like he's disappointing his children
 Fuck it, he bout to rob a store
 Decision made
 Pistol on his waist, wild grimace on face
 Automatic door slides open, as he slides in toting
 Loud sound, bystander drops his bottle and broke it
 Shoots him off the reflex the bullet checked em
 Time stopped arm extended black smif n wessun
 Half drunk, left him laying in a puddle off blood
 God damn, dashing out the store like what the fuck?
 Crazy work ethic, educated man of ethics
 Well-respected at work, his smile infectious
 Doubled his goal today bout to go home and meditate
 To get his head straight spotify streaming Etta James
 Loud headphones in the drug store, copped a Guinness
 Got all his ducks lined up and feeling optimistic
 He hears a woman gasping
 Dude with a black jackets toting
 A canon walks in like assassin
 The shock hit him dropped his bottle on the store floor
 Cocked the 44 shot em and took off his jaw
 Looking at hands bloody he hits the ground without a sound
 And see his soul elevating from his crown
 Vision out of focus as the colors fade to light
 He hears his kids voice and sees the face of his wife
 As his heart slowly tapers floating towards the holy sacred
 If sleep is the cousin of death that statements overrated
