Without a Face lyrics

Uh

[Verse 1]

Got no card, so I got not soul

Life is prison, no parole, no control

The jura got my number on a wire tap

'Cause I jack for Similac, fuck a Cadillac

Survive, one motive, no hope

'Cause every sidewalk I walk is like a tightrope

Yes, I know my deadline, sire, when my life expires

I'm sendin' paper south under the barbed wire

The mother of my child will lose her mind at my grave

It's my life for their life, so call it a free trade

"Por vida" and our name up on the stall

I took a death trip when I tried to cross the white wall

[Chorus]

Walk unseen past the graves and the gates

Born without a face

One motive, no hope, uh

Born without a face

Walk unseen past the graves and the gates

Born without a face

One motive, no hope, uh

Yeah, born without a face

Without a face

[Verse 2]

Yeah, I tried to look back to my past long lost

A blood donor to the land owner holocaust

Pop's heart stopped, in came the air drop

Flooded the trench, he couldn't shake the toxic shock

Maize was all we needed to sustain

Now her golden skin burns, insecticide rain

Ya down wit' DDT, yeah, you know me

I'm raped for the grapes, profit for the bourgeoisie

War tape boomin', path is Luminoso

I'm headed north like my name was Kid Cisco

To survive, one motive, no hope, uh

It's hard to breathe with Wilson's hand around my throat, uh

Strangled and mangled, another SS curtain call

When I tried to cross the white walls

When I tried to cross the white walls

[Chorus]

Walk unseen past the graves and the gates

Born without a face

One motive, no hope, uh

Born without a face

Walk unseen past the graves and the gates

Born without a face

One motive, no hope, uh

Born without a face

[Outro]

You say fortify

Reaction, you divide

You say fortify

Reaction, re-action

You say fortify

Reaction, re-action

You say fortify

Reaction, you divide
