[Hook]
You could've watched me die in the courthouse
And if you did you wouldn't blink an eye in the courthouse
You could've found me dead in the courthouse
And the judge would just turn his head in the courthouse
You could've watched me die in the courthouse
And if you did you wouldn't blink an eye in the courthouse
You could've found me dead in the courthouse
The judge was screaming "Off with his head" in the courthouse
[Verse 1]
Champagne back in the Hampton
But I don't get to celebrate
We're all herded in the back room
Then they delegate when hell awaits
Out the window I can barely see my parked car
Attorney next to me, looking like armed guard
Can they take the farce far?
We'll wait and see
Every stare turn the summer down to eight degrees
The attorney general's showing nonchalance
You can't show apathy and be a confidant
But I'm afraid if I ask him out the truth feels
I'll climb into a noose asking why I ain't take the blue pill
Hours later and we haven't even started
f** everyone who told me this would feel cathartic
If you asked me months ago this won't happen to you or I
Now I write this track to beg you, don't believe it's suicide
[Hook]
I can barely see my son so I say "f** the Texas government"
On a power trip against their fathers and they're loving it
Execute the people but a fetus is a loss
If Rick Perry thinks he's god, then let's hang him from a cross
Yeah I said it, I ain't afraid to admit it
History repeats and some of Nuremberg acquitted
And the man who smacked my child down isn't finished
But if I had it my way 30 isn't enough digits
But that won't fix a damn thing, I just need to vent it
Til I entered the courthouse, I was my biggest critic
And I do all I can to forget it
Cuz the only thing I learned is everything is a gimmick
They're telling me I sound bitter
No sh**, I deserve every minute of cynicism towards you critics
Every bit of hope I had is shattered
History repeats, and Pontius freed Barabbas
[Hook]
