Lyrics:
Poetic Justice
So here i am
I've got an empty gun
And nothing can save me now
A dead end
Traded my should for a joy ride
Now my road has run out
My road has run out
CHORUS:
Poetic
Poetic justice has finally come
Poetic
Poetic justice oh what have I done
My day of reckoning has begun
My blind luck
I let it lead me far too long
Down to the bottom
And this bone dry cup
It used to take my pain away
Now it's just another battle
Just another battle
CHORUS
Oh lord did I think
I could outrun my past
I could bury it all
But my past it seems
Was waiting in the wings
Oh lord have mercy on my soul
CHORUS
So here i am
I've got an empty gun
And nothing can save me now
