|
It's hot, I'm steamy, sweatin', tossin' and turnin' |
|
The whole house on fire and I can't stop it from burnin' |
|
The curtains and the walls all indulged in flames |
|
I yell, "Somebody help me" but ain't nobody came |
|
I try my best to put it out then I said, "****** it!" |
|
Break full speed to the back door one room away |
|
But the faster and harder I ran it seemed like the longer I took |
|
Prayin', "Please God spare me, I don't wanna cook!" |
|
Knew that I did done some things that I shouldn't of |
|
I knew I didn't come into Sunday service like I could have |
|
But have mercy for your child, forgive me for my sins |
|
I'm too young to die, Lord, get me through this |
|
We gotta get to the back, don't gotta get to the kitchen |
|
But they got thick black smoke comin' from the kitchen |
|
************t, all other exits are tossed, what I'ma do? |
|
Stay my ass here and burn or run the ****** through? |
|
Already havin' trouble breathin' when I started to cough |
|
But no more time to waste, I cover my face and took off |
|
Disendehydrate, I'm gettin' tireder |
|
I gotta, keep movin', 'cause it's gettin' hotter |
|
And hotter, whoo, whoa, ************t!, I'm on fire |
|
C-c-call them people to me, I-I-I'm on fire |
|
C-c-call them people to me, I-I-I'm on fire |
|
C-c-call them people to me, I-I-I'm on fire |
|
I-I-I'm on fire, I-I-I'm on fire |
|
C-c-call them people to me, I-I-I'm on fire |
|
C-c-call them people to me, I-I-I'm on fire |
|
I gotta get out of here, I've been trapped for over fifty five minutes |
|
Looks like I'm finished, this could be a ****** up endin' |
|
I done been in some ****** up ************t but this the worst I ever been in |
|
"Call them people to me", tell 'em send the fire engine |
|
I hope this ain't my calling y'all 'cause I ain't ready |
|
I'ma need some alerted emergency units to stand by, paramedics |
|
Runnin' through the fire, I can't turn back |
|
Somethin' went and everythin' went black |
|
I can't see, I can't see, I'm blind |
|
Oh ******, I'm alright, I just had my eyes closed the whole time |
|
Oops, ************t damn!, But that ain't my stop my shoes from movin' |
|
'Cause outside, here I am |
|
I smashed through the back door like a ram |
|
I made it! I'm still alive! I'm still a man! |
|
Out the house but still I got fire on my clothes |
|
So I stopped, dropped and rolled dig rolled |
|
Started goin' wild on the ground tryin' to get the flames out my ************rt |
|
Windmillin' in the dirt but nothin' didn't work |
|
I heard a, but that was just a barge |
|
See, I live right by the river, that's it! Water! |
|
Every step I took made hot footprints in the tar |
|
Runnin' over cars to the twelfth ward wall |
|
Get out the way 'cause everything I touch turn crispy |
|
I'ma be at the riverfront, tell 'em people come get me |
|
C-c-call them people to me, I-I-I'm on fire |
|
C-c-call them people to me, I-I-I'm on fire |
|
C-c-call them people to me, I-I-I'm on fire |
|
I-I-I'm on fire, I-I-I'm on fire |
|
Sparks like aluminum foil in the microwave oven |
|
Where them ******' people? Somebody do somethin' |
|
Can't you see what's happenin'? |
|
Don't you see the smoke? Can't you hear the cracklin'? |
|
Nobody wanna listen, everybody was scatterin' |
|
I grab a ******, he screamed so loud that ************t was eardrum shatterin' |
|
I said, "Don't scream dawg, I need your help, I'm the one on fire!" |
|
He said, "******, you supposed to be dead, how you still alive?" |
|
He was right, by now they should be embalmin' me |
|
But the ************t don't seem to be harmin' me |
|
Damn, this must have been a bad dream the whole while then |
|
I heard them mother******' sirens, hollerin' |
|
I guess they finally got the people to me, they must have saw me |
|
Huh, 'cause they was headed right for me |
|
A fireman walked up and handed me a ticket |
|
And said, "You just been put out, the fire went away!" |
