So Long Lyrics

(D'you ever had bad dreams?)
(All I have is bad dreams)

I knew a man with a son
He bought him a gun
And learned Shorty just how to use it
Taught him huntin' and skinnin'
Right from the beginnin'
Built himself a mighty fine killa
Killa
But Shorty got picked on
Beat on and kicked on
Now all his classmates want to punk him
So the tears in his eye may catch him in the rye
Told his old man he went huntin'
Never felt so free
Like his destiny
Their was someone out on the horizon
His heart went cold, he felt a hundred years old
Started pullin' back on the trigga

I think I'm gonna die today
Today, today, today
Everyone who hurt me's gonna pay
Pay, pay, pay
How can such a short time feel so long?
Long, long, long
How can such a young life go so wrong?
Wrong, wrong, wrong
Go so wrong

What'll it gonna take
For you to really make it in life?

See me (x2)
Hear me (x2)
But don't touch me
You should fear me
(Fear me)
Hold your life dearly
Cause I'm seriously disturbed
That's my word
(My word)
Straight to my mother
Wade, my brother
(Brother)
Found another
One to play sucker
Cause I ain't the one
Who has shaded your son
And took all your shine
Watch me get mine
And feel my love burn
(Burn)
Pay for my sins
Watch me grow turns
Psycho begins
(Psycho)
Losses he wins
Angels in heels
Dancin' on top
Of Heaven, pimp
Don't know where I'm goin'
But I know where I've been
You can't hear a sound
Clappin' for a pound
I came to get down
I came to get dirty
I came to get even
Even, even, even

(x3) I think I'm gonna die today
Today, today, today
Everyone who hurt me's gonna pay
Pay, pay, pay
How can such a short time feel so long?
Long, long, long
How can such a young life go so wrong?
Wrong, wrong, wrong (x3)

(Momma don't cry)
(Please momma don't cry)
(Please momma don't cry you did nothing wrong)

This is one of the most depressing songs I've ever heard... it's actually pretty good, too.

This is one hell of a song. It brings up emotions in you. This song is a meaning for how kids pick on eachother and then it results in suicide or a school-shooting. The song goes on to explain a possible experiance the singer had.

Everytime i hear this song i think hes talkin about columbine or other related school shootings. hes decribing how it all goes down in the kids head and in acton. thats what sets everlast apart from other artist, he really feels the situtation out and matchs a powerful unique genre-mixed beat to go with it. fuckin flawless
