Thugs dropped me here After they took my gear And when the sun hits the road You gotta move forward So I must walk fast Through this desert rail track My red neck begs for shade There’s no water I can trade Oh I can’t breathe... This dusty air, And my salty sweat burns my eyes I can’t see, but I walk somehow I have one day to get out Before I burst or pass out I got a how many miles track Of hard clay with old cracks But I won’t feed the black crows I got my freedom at my toes Today I’ll brave the ground and sky Today is, not the day I die No I won’t feed the black crows I got my freedom at my toes Today I’ll brave the ground and sky Today is not the day I die My feet are bleeding I walked on a rusty rail end But they keep walking On this blazing sand I found some cactus water Now I can walk on easy But my head goes dizzy I shouldn’t have eat it’s flower The landscape gets to crumble I don’t know where I should head My body shakes and trembles And I get bogged down in quicksand I see the Devil rising up He says “I’ll whip you with my scourge” But it’s not yet my time to be purged Not as long as I can stand up No I won’t feed the black crows I got my freedom at my toes Today I’ll brave the ground and sky Today is, not the day I die No I won’t feed the black crows I got my freedom at my toes Today I’ll brave the ground and sky Today is not the day I die He tried to make me bite the dust But I toppled the beast and I went mad He seemed to be angry when I fucked him on the ground I finally killed him with my hands inside his guts He’s now such a colourful mess I spit acid fire on it’s face Satan, I think you’ll agree You shouldn’t have hassled me I walked a day, so far I’m glad I made it back in town It’s time to rest, oh lord I’m down I ask a bourbon at the bar Yet I hear riders coming closer Shaved heads and tattoos all over They order a gallon of black beer Well, here are the thugs who took my gear ! They recognise my sore face Laugh and yell all over the place Two hold knifes and stare at me And I smell their fierce energy So I jump over the counter And grab the gun on the back wall They freak out and step up for the brawl I laugh and press down to fire Cause I won’t feed the black crows I got my freedom at my toes Today I’ll brave the ground and sky Today is, not the day I die No I won’t feed the black crows As I’m free it’s alright ! Today I’ll brave mountains and skies But today is not the day I die By Zitoune

I’ve been kicked up to the ceiling Cause I did something bad Oh I just got the feeling We teased up the wrong lad Oh I thought that I was a Thug But he squashed me like a bug Oh I’ve been kicked to the ground While i said I didn’t mean no harm I’ve been kicked up in the air, by this crazy foe He charged me with the strength of a Buffalo We tried hard to kill him, but this badass is tough If i cross his path again I will run my ass off Hey Rocky, do you think we teased up the wrong lad Well my friend, we surely did, we surely did... But Rocky, do you think this man is indestructible ? Well my dear friend spooky... I’m gonna tell you something... I believe this man is, my friend... the god damn motherfucker surely is... We’ve been kicked up to the ceiling Cause we did something bad Oh we just got the feeling We teased up the wrong lad Oh We thought that were a Thug But he squashed us like bugs Oh we’ve been kicked to the ground While we said we didn’t mean no harm Oho, We teased the wrong Lad

Back in my youthfulness I did wrong deeds And I can’t ever more bury my sins Pride, awards, and glory made me blind And only money and gold overran my mind I was the best colony’s soldier, and was assigned for the main mission Killing the enemy’s chief, and bring back a proof The reward was huge, so I gathered a squadron And so I went, to scalp the wanted one I found the tribe in the woods with a scout peloton We killed all the folks marked of their famous Buffalo scar The Chief’s cursing eyes crossed mines, we fought and I won Then I took off his scalp out his royal feather hat Now I see the dead man’s shadow Wandering around me As a ghost who haunts me And I can’t kill that foe I hear the dead man’s breathing Whispering we're now one It says “keep walking” Until your redemption” You made me kill a hundred thugs It’s a way for you to revenge on my brothers Though I felt since a while that you have bigger plans, You're making me head up North, which makes your buffalo scar shine I’m not scared anymore of the shape of you I’ll follow where you lead me and accept my curse And if I have to fight, well, huh, I’m alright I’ll go with no fear, cause I may be dead already Now I see the dead man’s shadow Wandering around me As a ghost who haunts me And I can’t kill that foe I hear the dead man’s breathing Whispering we're now one It says “keep walking Until your redemption” By Zitoune
