cypress hill - dead man's gun lyrics

(feat. young de)

[intro: sample from them two’s – “am i a good man”]
“am i a good maaaaaaan?
am i good maaaaaaaan?
am i a foooool?
am i fooooooool? ”

[b-real:]
it was a cold dark night in december
running from the po-po’s the alleyway i enter.
trying to hideaway – when i stumbled on a gun
and n-body’s knows nothing about – where it came from!
and nothing hotter then the summers in june
who knows how many souls – they put in the tomb.
when i picked it up man, i felt alot of pain,
like a shot [shot] thru the brain – for reasons i can’t explain!
after it went away – i felt a sudden change
like – i can do anything. – and don’t get in my way!
i’m scared for my family! – they couldn’t understand
with gun in my hand – i became – another man.
no more running and hiding away from the cops,
no more getting robbed from the dudes on the block.
you’re looking at a new man in the light of the sun
you’re staring down the barrel of a dead man’s gun! (dead man’s gun…)

[chorus: young de]
cause you never know what’s around them corners
enemies try to run up on us!
so i keep that gun right by my siide
if you want it you gotta take my liiiife.

and if you got problems, i got answers!
“one shot from the revolver [shot] – can solve it! ”
anyway you want it, it don’t mat-ter!
“if you got hard. – i’m a go harder! ” – you gotta take my liiiife!

[b-real:]
you walk into a dream and sh-t feels like a game
everyone is different – but they all end up the same.
even the places – and the faces all change
at the end of the dream – i could see – the bullets rain!
i thought it was me who brought these people to the death
’til i noticed a funny thing, i was standing on the left!
looking at other people with their hands on the gun
and pulling the trigger – until their enemies were done!
and with each hand that held the gun it got deeper
they ended a question against the shoulder of the reaper! (yeeeahhh!)
they all look invincible with the weapon that was cursed,
until it was their turn – to ride in the he-rs-!
seems like the history – is p-ssing down to me (go!)
cause my finger was itching (go!) to go after my enemies. (go!)
i welcome them all (go!) with the best on my chest (go!)
because i put ’em (go!) to the test and laid those bodies to rest. (bodies the rest…)

[chorus]

[b-real:]
spring for more pimpin’ – it’s time p-sses by
and people are telling me about the look in my eye.
sayin’ it seems there’s a chip on my shoulder
and for some reason my att-tude has gotten bolder!
i knew it was true – cause i felt myself changin’,
but i don’t care what they think cause i’m still the same man.
i don’t show weakness – anymore without a question
don’t wanna be stressin’ and have to teach them rappers a lesson!
never a time – i felt so alive (go!)
an’ situations (go!) i thrive – like bees to a hive. (go!)
i murder these (go!) new kids – who got something against me. (go!)
the thought of you (go!) talkin’ sh-t – really f-ckin’ offends me! (go!)
in no time at all we come back to each other
seems like i’ve seen it before. – i swear it on my mother!
a shot [shot] rang out – and then my hands went numb
seen my body on the floor – with the dead man’s gun! (dead man’s gun…)

[chorus]

[outro: young de]
you gotta take my liiiife… (liiiife…)
you gotta take my liiiife… (liiiife…)
you gotta take my liiiife… (liiiife…)
you gotta take my liiiife… (liiiife…) [echoes] [beat stops]
