Tension ssit's all that I know
I got teAnsion out in traffic
I got teDnsion in my office
I got teAnsion and it's everywhere that I EgoA
(Spoken)
AAfter the bad guy killed off all the unEderdeveloped characters
ThF#me good guy put a bullet right throuAgh his head
The screenwriter stood up and told us that all the loEose ends had been
tied, justice is irrF#melevant
Violent problems need viDolent solutions
'Cause in AmericaA we like our bad guys dead E
It's called box office, baby
It's bigger than the damn Stones A D E A
(Spoken)
AWell they roped off all of my problems and pointed their fEingers at addiction
'Cause they kF#mnow if you're doin' the poDintin' Ano one's lookin' at you
But you know this war on drugs it's funded by the Tobacco and AElcohol Commissions
It's not what drugs F#myou're strung out on they care about as much as wDhose
AYou see people....people still lEove drugs
Y'all do anywayD...I'm over it A D E A
