Esham
The Walking Dead
[Chorus]
Now I lay me down to sleep before I go to bed
I pray to the Lord, don't catch a hole in my head
I walked through the valley of death, and I was never scared
I'm talkin' like the walking dead, I'm the walking dead

[Verse 1]
I can't feel no pain no more, love's the drug I'm trying to score
Do what you love not what you think you supposed to do
Nothing scares me more than someone loving me one day
And deciding they don't want me the next
Nothing terrifies me more than being so close to someone
And then watching them become a stranger again
Love is not a reason to tolerate disrespect
I love you and it's killin' me, let's play Russian roulette
Life is the art of feelin' magnificently
God I love you at your darkest moments, this must be blasphemy
To understand another person
You must swim in the same waters that drown them
Only a man who doesn't love himself
Mistreats the women around him

[Chorus]
Now I lay me down to sleep before I go to bed
I pray to the Lord, don't catch a hole in my head
I walked through the valley of death, and I was never scared
I'm talkin' like the walking dead, I'm the walking dead
[Verse 2]
Love is patient, love is kind
It does not envy, it does not boast
It is not proud, doesn't dishonor others
Isn't self-seeking, not easily-angered
Love keeps no record of your wrongs

[Chorus]
Now I lay me down to sleep before I go to bed
I pray to the Lord, don't catch a hole in my head
I walked through the valley of death, and I was never scared
I'm talkin' like the walking dead, I'm the walking dead
