Running Cold

When he sees a butterfly
It reminds him of a lullaby
That his mom used to sing to him
Before she said goodnight

And as he got older
He wishes he could still hold her
He never said he loved her
Before she said goodbye

His pops was never mentioned
And he always got detention
Then he started an addiction

He was hanging with the bad shoes
Thinkin' he was too coo
And he started to gang blue
Nothing ever came through

Stickin' barrels in enemies faces
He had so much hatred
And he blamed it on his pops

Bam!
Two shots to the chest
One to the head
Now he's runnin' cold
And he almost dead

Unconscious
He swore he saw Jesus
Before he never believed in him
Now he's beggin' for mercy
