Closed Casket

(album: Closed Casket - 1994)

"What about death when it's done come and gone?"

Now I lay me down to sleep before I go to bed
Redrum was the word that a nigga said
I'm dead, and once my mind bled all day
Better watch the word when the wicked man say
Simple and plain, I feel no pain
Rotten body in the ground wit' my maggot brain
The fallen angel fell all this wickedness for Heaven
I still, so now I go to Hell at seven
I can't wait to meet the Grim Reaper, creature, feature
Esham the UnHoly, Satan was my teacher
And find the preacher, I'm gonna kill him when I catch him
Put your body in the coffin and stretch'em, closed casket

[Chorus]
[Talking] And I dont wanna die with my eyes closed-(closed casket)
I said I dont wanna die with my eyes closed-(closed cakset)

I don't really wanna feel no pain, I'm ill
I'd rather be dead, still
Lay me down, let my body rot from the buckshot to my knot
And Hell is getting hot, watch the hammer cock (boom!)
Now I lay me down to sleep
Watch the head of the Head hunter once I creep
Shit's deep, six feet deep infact
Bloody body in the coffin laying on my back
Matter of fact, it's time to meet the Maker, the Undertaker
Sold my soul, as the story a told
Once again, it seems that I cannot win
And when I die, i'm going to Hell again, in a closed casket

[Chorus]

It seems I'm just headed for Hell, I hear screams, they call my name
Symptoms of insanity, the voices, they're all the same
I'm dead, and nobody feels my pain
One bullet, one gun, one person to blame
No shame, I take aim at my head
Cock the hammer back and out soar a piece of lead
It was said, that i'm gonna die anyway
Atleast six feet deep I got some place to stay
Wit' the maggots, bury me alive and hush
Now I'm thinking 'bout ashes, dust to dust
If I must, say one thing
I bet they won't say they seeing me like the King
Elvis, closed casket

[Chorus]

"I've come to conclusion, look brothers, sisters,
I want an answer, there's a... the overworld, and the underworld,
which world are you a part of?"
