Tyson James
Death Row
[Intro]
There's a way that seems right, to a man
But in the end, it only leads to death

[Verse 1]
You only get one shot
This life ain't all that you got
Better make it count, don't flop
You better chase the crown, don't stop

[Verse 2]
And most people wait in a cell
And they never break out the shell
Deny God, livin' under a spell
Then they die, and get thrown into Hell

[Verse 3]
And look at the time, and it's tickin' away
Don't wait tomorrow, might get it today
You say you got faith, but do you obey?
You say you want grace, but you play with the chains

[Verse 4]
You on death row
I'm throwin' down my neck, though
'Cause, you don't really want to let those
Demons get ya' body, they won't let go
[Verse 5]
They gon' wrap around you, real tight
And, I hope you ready to fight
'Cause, he'll take you into the night
And, you'll never come back to the light

[Verse 6]
It's a big deal, I got big zeal
Don't let life be a big wheel
Don't sell out, for a big meal
You gon' see the judge
You gon' get real

[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm patiently waitin' for that day to come
Justice comin' down upon the lazy ones
All this corruption gon' cease
And, everybody gonna bow a knee
To the King of Kings

[Chorus]
Get ready for the shakedown
Things about to break, now
But you don't wanna pray, now
So, you on death row
And, God could break the chains, now
I don't know what to say, now
'Cause, you don't wanna change, now
So, you on death row
You on death row
You don't wanna turn from sin
So, you on death row
You on death row
You on death row
You don't wanna turn to Him
So, you on death row
Homie, you on death row
[Verse 7]
Man, that's a cold place to be
Some of y'all livin' in make believe
Better hold tight, He gon' shake the tree
He paid your fee, that's great relief
But, you don't wanna take a knee
You 'wakened servant, get away from me

[Verse 8]
Hollywood is on death row
The Democrats are on death row
All these pedophiles, on death row
For the gospel, homie, I'm ten toes

[Verse 9]
That wide gate is a dead road
Why wait for the next boat?
Better do it now, 'fore you get old
'Fore, the door shuts, with the dead bolt

[Verse 10]
You just skatin' through life, brody
And, they about to come knock
But, you don't wanna get right, homie
And, you just wanna put it off, heh
[Verse 11]
You built your house on the sand
And, you should'a built on the rock
You down ten, in the fourth quarter
And, you ain't got time on the clock
It's over

[Pre-Chorus]
And, I'm patiently waitin' for that day to come
Justice comin' down upon the lazy ones
All this corruption gon' cease
And, everybody gonna bow a knee
To the King of Kings

#CHORUS
Get ready for the shakedown
Things about to break, now
But, you don't wanna pray, now
So, you on death row
And, God could break the chains, now
I don't know what to say, now
'Cause, you don't wanna change, now
So, you on death row
You on death row
You don't wanna turn from sin
So, you on death row
You on death row
You on death row
You don't wanna turn to Him
So, you on death row
Homie, you on death row
