I question not me, it only happens to others
I can't deny reality as life gets smothered


If the lines can be read between
Maybe you can tell me then what it all means
Cause he who paints the big picture runs the whole scene


Locked down, I gotta get it out
Impending doom, a cloud above my head

Why me? My faith has been devout
Blasphemous? Am I better off dead?


Pusishment, for all my sins

A burning thought inside my mind

Has me full of pity for all of human kind
As we move forth, we fall further behind


Fear of death, will my life go on?
Controllled fate? On the corner rolling dice
Punishment, but I've done nothing wrong

In my eyes, who really pays the price

My lament, for the human race

Guilty, punishment for all my sins

Dread the day that brings the truth

Punishment for what I've done
Sentence me for all my sins
Bound in fear for what I've got

Though not much it seems a lot
Life is death and no one wins


Bustin' my $$#, another day another dollar, as I kneel down and I
confress to the father that I'm suffering a burning question of
the truth, wether or not to pull the trigger or to jump right

off the roof, 'cause I did things normal and just like all my friends
but now I'm positive and life it all ends


Punishment, for all my sins, I repent

In reality, we all must face the fact that the majority

of the people are out there smoking crack, getting doped up,
shooting that %#@! into their veins, the question must be asked if
we have any brains left, or right or wrong in this son, a

question we all ask and must answer before long, 'cause no one
is safe in this world, what's the deal, the sentence is death and to
what court do I appeal?


Punishment, for all my sins, I repent
