What do we do With nothing to hold onto We die & we live With the walls closing in I'm not criminal & i'm not giving up Before your mind's made up... just listen up You want potential, well I got potential There's just 6 shots left inside my pistol today Livin' my life for me Livin' my life for me No matter what they say, no matter what you hear... livin' my life for me No matter what they preach, they're gonna disappear... livin' my life for me I'm not criminal & I'm not giving up Close your mouth & open your ears... lighten the fuck up You're selling old ways just to make a dollar It's the mind that makes the man, not the color of his collar DESPERATION, DESPERATION... today We're all desperate, we're all desperate
