2 bullets to my chest, Now I'm gaspin and wheezin'. I close my eyes to rest, But my mama's screamin'. Paramedics can't stop the bleedin', I guess I'm my daddy's se men. I can feel my soul leavin', As I finally stop breathin'. I tried to go up but got sent to Hell, With the other demons. The first shot hits me hard, The second shot hits me harder. Then my body hits the deck, And my blood flows like water. I could've been a doctor or scholar, But I was beefing over the dollar. For the love of money, Is the root of all evil. And for the money I sin, Even when the count is thin. I got caught up in the wrong things, Dealing with the price sinning brings. I didn't want it if it ain't luscious, Now I'm dead in my own "juices." 2 bullets to my chest, Now I'm gaspin and wheezin'. I close my eyes to rest, But my mama's screamin'. Paramedics can't stop the bleedin', I guess I'm my daddy's se men. I can feel my soul leavin', As I finally stop breathin'. I tried to go up but got sent to Hell, With the other demons. Ay money make the thots bust it, With the world in hand I clutch it. Married to the money like I love it, Lay it somewhere safe till I touch it. The saddest part is it stays on Earth, You die broke but have it at birth. The perspective gives the expression, "Dead broke a whole new meaning. For the love of money, Is the root of all evil. And for the money I sin, Even when the count is thin. I had to get money by any means, But life ain't a damn cartoon scene. For the love of the money, Someone else came to get it from me. 2 bullets to my chest, Now I'm gaspin and wheezin'. I close my eyes to rest, But my mama's screamin'. Paramedics can't stop the bleedin', I guess I'm my daddy's se men. I can feel my soul leavin', As I finally stop breathin'. I tried to go up but got sent to Hell, With the other demons.
I like the poem overall but I especially like the lines “For the money I sin, even though the count is thin” it’s very sad but true because a lot of people commit a number of crimes for even the smallest amount of cash
Thanks. I wanted to add a Bible verse with some correlating to why the love for it is the root of all evil. Even in certain states like New York, police officers and retired police officers are sinning for money.
