30:40This is my story
31:05Oh, I'll get to you
31:08A tale of wisdom
31:09Or just confusion
31:11I've had too many years
31:14Of truth and lies
31:16The water's real
31:17In my twisted mind
31:19I didn't think that I was a kind of man
31:23Yeah
31:24To do the things that make you sad
31:27But if you want to
31:29Not be somebody
31:31You got to be cool
31:33You got to turn on your soul
31:36And throw it to the devil
31:40Yeah, turn on your soul
31:43And call yourself a sinner
31:47Yeah, yeah
31:50Turn on your soul
31:51Not drugs and women
32:01And alcohol
32:02I've done them all
32:04And I'm about to fall
32:06My days and nights
32:09Have all faded down the hill
32:11But I can still see the sun
32:15As this dream
32:17Getting further away
32:19I can't see the end
32:21Of what I started
32:22Now my mama said
32:24I don't think this would happen now
32:26But if you can't let go
32:28I got to turn on your soul
32:31And throw it to the devil
32:35Yeah, turn on your soul
32:38Call yourself a sinner
32:43Turn on your soul
32:46And throw it to the devil
32:51Yeah, yeah
32:52Throw it down your soul
32:54Call yourself a sinner
32:58Yeah, yeah
33:00And we need somebody
33:03To show me
33:05The way
33:06Back home
33:08I don't belong
33:11In this world now
33:12Anymore
33:14I've had enough
33:16No, no, no
33:29I don't
33:44You've got to turn on your soul
33:49And throw it to the devil
33:54Yeah, yeah, baby, turn on your soul
33:57Yeah, yeah, yeah
34:01Turn on your soul
34:02Turn on your soul, babe
34:14I woke up one morning, I said I'm gonna change my whole world
34:43I've had enough of everyone, no more hanging on my back
34:47My head hurts a million times from being a nightmare while again
34:52Can you see my eyes? I always remember emptiness inside
34:56I've been dead man walking
34:57Dead man walking
35:01Dead man walking
35:13Walking through the streets at night
35:16Like a ghost that has not passed
35:18Slowly fading to the black inside
35:20Nowhere else to run that hide
35:22I never understand those ways
35:24Of wanting something so, so bad
35:26Living in your maple leaf
35:28Instead of beating off your ass
35:30You're a dead man walking
35:32Dead man walking
35:36I can move now
35:41I want you over the place
35:43I'm on such a high
35:45I can't even describe
35:47Now I'm free
