The Law

[Verse 1] How many times did you call me and I knew it was late I left everybody but I never went straight I don't claim to be guilty, but I do understand There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand [Verse 2] Now my heart's like a blister from doin' what I do If the moon has a sister, it's got to be you I'm gonna miss you forever, though it's not what I planned There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand [Verse 3] Now the deal has been dirty since dirty began I'm not asking for mercy, not from the man You just don't ask for mercy while you're still on the stand There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand [Half Verse] I don't claim to be guilty, guilty's too grand There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand [Verse 4] That's all I can say, baby, that's all I can say It wasn't for nothing that they put me away I fell with my angel down the chain of command There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand There's a law, there's an arm, there's a hand
