Dead Man Walking

 

Dead Man Walking

(Album: Hypocrite - 2013)


Yo, they want the punch-line battle raps
I mean I had the title, you can have it back
That line was said so egotistically
I never gave it back; it got stripped from me
Truly a blessing what it did to me
Learn more lessons from defeat than victory
Like how to take a loss: humility
What happened next, though, the rest is history
Glad they stopped me it was going to my head
Instead, I'm declaring that the cocky JIN is dead
Don't put too much weight on reputation and face
Expect to be let down when expectations are great
They used to cause me of relying on my race
What they gonna say now, I'm relying on my faith?
See that's fine with me, I was designed to be
I killed my old self, who wants to die with me?

[Hook:]
I know it don't make sense
Due to recent events
I ain't been the same since
I know you must be convinced
I put the old me in the coffin [3x]
I'm so alive, still a dead man walking

Yo, they want the party/getting money raps
I had fun with that, but I'm done with that
See, I ain't opposed to having a good time
But what I compose now are more that just good lines
I used to dream of getting five mics
Now in every sixteen, I'm praying that you find Christ
For the cheese, on the dotted line, I would've signed twice
That's what I get for following three blind mice
Desperation, it was going to my head
Instead, I declare that the paper-chasing JIN is dead
Seeking riches, I let it measure what I'm worth
Wasting time storing up treasures here on earth
Only to be destroyed, I can't fake the image
So I'm prepared to see my fanbase diminish
See that's fine with me, I was designed to be
I killed my old self, who wants to die with me?

[Hook]

[Toestah:]
Yeah, five years ago, met JIN for the first time
Cross paths like church signs
I was plotting all my rivals
Suddenly I'm shaking hands with my idol
And three years later, me and JIN up in the stu
Cooking up tracks, recorded "FEEL GOOD"
Shot the video in Hong Kong, plus we did a show
Yeah, that's why I call him "Big Bro"
I'm a dead man, dead man, trying to get ahead, man
Learning my ways, I was listening to Batman
Back then, all I cared was pouring out the Grammy
Nowadays, I'm rapping with a purpose making acme
I don't know why, but sometimes feels empty
I'm waiting at the gates for entry
I want to give it up, but my love won't let me
I'm out with the old me, so y'all don't tempt me
Yeah

[Hook]

I put the old me in the coffin [4x]
I'm so alive, still a dead man walking
