I have no remorse for what i did. You made your bed, now die in it. Wanna be tough guy put in your place, enjoy your broken fucking face.
Rat in the sewer, burden on our entire society.
How was spending the night in the intensive care with your family?
You should have known better than to try and fuck with me.
I read somewhere that your house caught on fire? What a tragedy.
You cast the first stone in this war when the threat was at your door. No surrender, no retreat. I watched your blood stain the street.
Coward.

Sleeping with one eye open
Forever looking over your shoulder
You never know when your time will come
We are so far beyond a one on one
Bats, hammers, knives.
Couldn't hide the shook in your eyes
This is a war you cannot win
Twitter fingers dry snitching again
Bring everyone you fucking know
Always been more talk than show
Day by day, it just gets worse
The hardest with you gunna get it first
To the dog that bit the hand that fed
Dragged out back and shot in the fucking head
Keep it up, run and hide. I’ve got the time.
Revenge is forever, and beef never dies.

The black cloud above my head will never go away
My bad luck will follow me until the end of days
Everywhere I turn I can't seem to get a grip
Another sleepless night of fucking up again
2 steps forward to be pushed back 12
Some days I wish I could just swallow a shell
i try’n’try’n’try but i just keep falling behind
I'd settle for one night and some fucking peace of mind
Look into my eyes and tell me what you find
I have nothing left, I wish I wasn't alive.
I suffer through this life sentence
Just to feel alive
Truth is, I'm barely breathing
I'm done trying to survive.
I’ve suffered everyday
For my entire fucking life
I just wish i could
Get one god damn thing right
Always losing, never winning
The future looks bright
But the lights are dimming
Cheers to a life not worth living
Cheers to a life I’m not living

“All these struggles in the life we living
Pushing and pulling they want us to give in
Robbing all these parents of children
Make it stop”
Make it stop -M.E.O.

“It ain’t safe, no. They die where I’m from
(Where I’m from)
Die for the pills, die by a gun
(By a gun)”
Watch over me -M.E.O.
https://soundcloud.com/meothetruth/watch-over-me-check-remix
The needle spiked your vein
Just trying to numb some of the pain
Did you think about who you hurt
Look at you now, you’re dead in the dirt
Can't turn back the hands of time
Can't take back all the things that I’ve said
No matter what we went through
I never wanted you dead
Russian roulette with a loaded gun
(Do or die)
Pull the trigger just for fun
(Suicide)
Got past it in the end
Couldn’t let myself trust you again
I’ve always held grudges for far to fucking long. Here’s everything i should have said to your face, just in a song, too little. To late.
I'm sorry. I'm so fucking sorry.
Watch over me.
Watch over.

Ghost

I can see the drugs behind your eyes
I can smell the shit you spit through your lies
Never again will i call you a friend
Despair and pain will have your back in the end
Tell everyone that it’s my fault
Like I’m the fucking one who changed
I may not be worth my salt
But atleast my convictions have stayed the fucking same
Would’ve went to war
For you and ours
Sacrifice
My whole life
Now you’re a ghost
Of a memory
I don’t want
That i hate
Self accountable
“Not your fucking fault”
Disease or a choice
Addiction being taught
Shoot up and slump out
You can’t control it right?
Go on blame us all
For what you did with your life

For the kids who had to raise themselves,
How hard was it to face yourself everyday? Faking a smile about the kid you threw away. You made your choice before i had a voice. Clutched like a crutch in your hand, i never stood a chance.
Lashing out at the world just to fill a fucking void. You'll never come back. And I'm finally ok with that.
I want you to fucking suffer. I want you to miss me forever. I want to find you in the gutter, with a bottle in your hand. You can try to understand when you blackout to sleep, I make promises that I can fucking keep.
Tell all your friends, go ahead and brag. Tell ‘em all about the son you never really had.
Broken home to broken home, my whole life I’ve felt so alone. Let reality set in and accept your fate, the son you abandoned molded by hate. I hope you live everyday in constant pain. I hope you rot in hell for what you did to me. Everything I hate about myself I learned from you. I will never forgive you for what the fuck you put me through.
You won't find me at the bottom of that bottle. You won’t find me at the bottom of your grave.

How can I trust you if I can't trust myself
I've let myself down more times than I can fucking count
I fall asleep and dream only of death
In the end atleast one promise is kept
Every day I think to better myself
Everyday I give up again
I'll always be a piece of shit
A burden to everyone I've ever met
Never been worth my salt
I know this is all my fault
I wish I could quit
Kick the chair and end all of it
Leaving nothing behind
But a bad taste in your mouth
Curse my name and forget
Put my lights out
