I'm all choked up again 
 With these two hands and the rage I'm in 
 I think I just killed a man 
    I think it was my old man 
 I hadn't seen him in years and now he's bleedin' tears 
 And his head is in the palm of my hand   
 All choked up again 
 Have you ever met up a little command 
 That couldn't break a pool boy's chin? 
 And here it all is again   
 Went all in I got stuck in a jam 
 That's what you get when you're a gamblin' man 
 That's what you get when you're a gamblin' man   
 Well, every day you seem to dig a little deeper 
 Into nothin' that is left behind 
 Up all night 'til it's early in the mornin' 
 And the whole damn world's on fire   
 I close my eyes and I wanna start runnin' 
 But my legs are broken and tied 
 Everything around me starts spinnin' 
 And I realize I'm buried alive   
 This ain't no place for kids 
 But when you're raised in a bucket of rain 
 You either die or you learn to swim 
 You either die or you learn to swim   
 I just need to see my baby again 
 She took my hand there from where it began 
 Said she would love me with trouble I was in 
 Said she would love me with trouble I was in   
 And every day I seem to dig a little deeper 
 Into nothin' that is left behind 
 Up all night 'til it's early in the mornin' 
 And the whole damn world's on fire   
 I close my eyes and I wanna start runnin' 
 But my legs are broken and tied 
 And everything around me starts spinnin' 
 And I realize I'm buried alive   
 I'm all choked up again 
 With these two hands and the rage I'm in 
 I think I just killed a man
