IN MY BLUES

I SPREAD FO’ YOU!
Then you put me in my blues
Now we all sit here in the same room
Wonderin’ how did this happened to you?

I guess what they say is true
This muthur fucker can not differentiate between the two
It don’t give a shit if your black or white, if you got bank
or if your just a LYF trying’ ta’ make it right
Just cuz you wear that badge they still took your baby away from you
when it came out high on Vicodin
And I can bet that’s got you in my blues

That uniform did look right on you, though,
especially after you told me your mama died
on heroine the same night
you booked me for slamming dope and getting high-
getting’ high…. Getting’ high….

Tore up, turned out
By the time I was ten
Never knowing exactly what the fuck it was I did

Getting burned, turnin’ tricks
But when their back is turned
dumped the body out to the curb
Hunger is murder
And that was just my first

While I was on the yard I was getting tatted down all of the time,
cuz I loved ta hear that sound of the needle grid.
Slingin’ ink and stayin’ mean
while you were tryin’ ta’ be
just a regular mom
in an SUV
Livin’ in Orange County
with perfect white teeth
Eatin’ Vicodin on double AA batteries
“replace in one week”-
But that was just the packaging design,
not the dosage prescribed!
Guess that’s when the dildo died…
you were high and hubby took that ride…

about

Lose Your Fear

Lose Your Fear was spawned in the streets of Venice, California with the founding members Melissa Simpson ( Gina Tailya ) and Anson Jackson ( Rev. Sneak Freak ), who met in 2005 while attempting murder with a deadly weapon during an underground performance art showcase. That deadly weapon proved to be Gina T's microphone and Anson's psyhcofunk riffs. ... more
