...and watch the world die

by antwan fields - Aries

pride goeth before a drop
so does your stomach, and it pops
guess its time,time to get high
i wish you and the rest of the fucking world would die!
just go away and leave me alone
im going to be, i was, im gone
and when hope came down, along with my love
i pledge allegience to the most high above 
spirit leaving body, mind clearing
fade out, hear the cops and the crowd cheering
another bites the dust, hard and fast
i went up and came back and they were kicking my ass
and i began to cry, knowing it was too late
that death was coming and it was only fate
and i felt myself leave and begin to fly
have a bird's eye view and watch the world die
and i wish for justice to  be served 
i turned my back and that's when he swerved
put the knife in my back and twisted it hard
i shouldn't have trusted him, have let down my guard
someone watches me- is he the judge??
he waves me forward and the baliff gives me a nudge
i must now face my fate, he says, adjusting a paper
you weren't sure, but at least you weren't a raper
and i watch him carefully, wondering what he means
suddenly the baliff kicks me in the jeans
this is why when i leave i won't cry
or pry, just sit back and watch the world die
