Prisoners Lyrics by King Dude

Sex

2016

[Verse 1]
She was born with her wedding ring on
Died in a river near the town she came from
I didn't know she had a little baby son
But a little bit of baby gonna make you get a gun
Who the fuck you think is really gonna live
In a world where nobody has a single fuck to give?
Everybody knows her daddy runs a rig
He took a couple gunshots in a standoff with the pigs
He used to forfeit information on the low
He would tie it to the devil and then blame it on his roll
No one ever knew that he was in control
And nobody could’ve guessed what he was keeping down below
And on the day she disappeared we realized
He's the only motherfucker nowhere even near surprised
First interview he gave us, in his eyes
I could see the motherfucker was the master of disguise

[Chorus]
We are all born prisoners, baby
'Til the day that we die
We are all born prisoners, baby
’Til the day that we die

[Verse 2]
Down by the river underwater where she lay
Mother nature blessed the scenes with signs of her decay
All evidence was nearly washed away
Except a single cigarette containing human DNA
One officer decided to go rogue as he rolled down
To the last known of her father's mobile home
He didn't think to radio to his C.O
He didn't know this motherfucker kills the cops all on his own

[Chorus]
We are all born prisoners, baby
'Til the day that we die
We are all born prisoners, baby
'Til the day that we die
We are all born prisoners, baby
'Til the day that we die
We are all born prisoners, baby
'Til the day that we die
We are all born prisoners, baby
’Til the day that we die
We are all born prisoners, baby
’Til the day that we die
