Burning candles, up all night
Summon smoke and summon fire (Oh oh)
An offering to the other side
Ancestors standing side by side (Oh oh)
Are you really down to ride?
Do you have what it takes for the sacrifice? (Oh oh)
And if it’s time, then it’s my time

I hate to say I told ya
More than just a soldier
Now you know I’m stronger
Can’t break my composure
I hate to say I told ya
Now I got my closure
Dancing like it’s over
It’s over
You’re over
Hate to say I told ya

A burial divine
Two pennies on your eyes (Oh oh)
Are you really down to ride?
Will you have what it takes in the afterlife? (Oh oh)
And if it’s time, then it’s my time

I hate to say I told ya
More than just a soldier
Now you know I’m stronger
Can’t break my composure
I hate to say I told ya
Now I got my closure
Dancing like it’s over
It’s over
You’re over
Hate to say I told ya
Look me in the eye
Don’t you tell no lies
Now I need to know are you afraid to die?
Are you afraid to die?
(Are you afraid to die?)
Look me in the eye
Don’t you tell no lies
Now I need to know are you afraid to die?
Are you afraid to die?
(Are you afraid to die)

I hate to say I told ya
More than just a soldier
Now you know I’m stronger
Can’t break my composure
I hate to say I told ya
Now I got my closure
Dancing like it’s over
It’s over
You’re over
Hate to say I told ya
I hate to say I told ya
I hate to say I told ya
I hate to say I told ya
I told ya
I told ya
