I can't seem to get away from carving stones with everything I say Sometimes I speak out of turn Sometimes I just can't hold my tongue And sometimes I don't mean a single word Every time I take a breath and look up at where I am its iron bars and concrete walls Every time I speak it's a life sentence And I'm bound until the hangman calls I no longer wanna be a man of my word Cuz often time my words they'll lie to me They'll sign my name by the x Cross my t's and double check And dot my I's and then they'll dry the ink I can't seem to find my feet I stumble every time I speak Maybe it's best I plead the fifth I'll shut my mouth I don't wanna step on any toes And that way I can break no promises I can't stay locked away A prisoner of every word I say Burnin in my pocket is the key Gotta piss some people off Cuz no you can't please them all Oh, the truth will set you free I no longer wanna be a man of my word Cuz often time my words they'll lie to me They'll sign my name by the x Cross my t's and double check And dot my I's and then they'll dry the ink I no longer wanna be a man of my word Cuz often time my words they'll lie to me They'll sign my name by the x Cross my t's and double check And dot my I's and then they'll dry the ink They'll sign my name by the x Cross my t's and double check And dot my I's and then they'll dry the ink Yeah they'll dot my I's and then they'll dry the ink Said, they'll dot my I's and then they'll dry the ink
