lyrics

I'm a working on a building in the Tennessee sun
Living on the level since I gave up the gun
Thursday comes and I'm underpaid
But I can't say nothing for the choices Ive made

I Remember the time I lost it all
And I felt like putting my hammer through the wall

I was just 19 on the lower east side
When I was sticking up bodegas with a shiny tech 9
Kicking it up to the boss of the boss
Not even the coppers dared enforce the laws.

I used to stand so proud and tall
Now I feel like putting my hammer through the wall

Solos

I’m working as a carpenter in Tennessee
Under a different name that they chose for me
That prosecutor's taking a long holiday
I'm framed hundreds of houses while they're building their case

Every man from glory must fall
And I feel like putting my hammer through the wall

They caught me red handed at the scene of a crime
Gun in my jacket and money on my mind
The man I murdered's face said it all
When I put that degenerate gambler through the wall

It was testify or it was life in jail
For no blood money could go my bail
Now I'm working here, sweating like a hog
And I feel like putting my hammer through the wall
I feel like putting my hammer through the wall
I feel like putting my hammer through the wall
