Letters To Cleo - Find You Dead

*Find You Dead*

Once I knew this boy
You wanted what you could get
If you wanted it's so bad
Why did you go and take it
Out in trade instead
My momma cried
She shook and wandered off
To a different place and
My daddy couldn't make things better then
If he couldn't say it
Wait around and maybe I'll
Forget about it after awhile
But instead I'd like to think ahead
'til they find you dead
Skipping out on god is bad
But not worse than mitigating it
That's why I don't
Make the time to hope
Or pray so I'm just gonna shine
In the brilliance
Of the only one
Who's gotten you behind?
Wait around and maybe I'll
Forget about it after awhile
But instead I'd like to think ahead
'Til they find you dead
Wait around and maybe I'll
Forget about it after awhile
But instead I'd like to think ahead
'Til I find the bag and
Get my turn in effigy
You'll burn
