Rattlesnake Shake

a rattlesnake shake 
a rattlesnake shake 
pursued like a wounded deer 
branded inhumanity 
crime controlled 
wild instinct to stay alive 
the morning that will never die 
fire down below 
deep in my mind 
can't be denied 
out of sight 

like a rattlesnake shake 
a rattlesnake shake 
like a rattlesnake shake 
a rattlesnake shake 

when they set my skin on fire 
last resort desire 
I can't resist 
the man they couldn't catch 
is the man they couldn't hang 
they'll spiteful kissed 
balanced on the edge 
inseminated death 
skeletons left behind 

by a rattlesnake shake 
a rattlesnake shake 
by a rattlesnake shake 
a rattlesnake shake 

blessed by the gods 
which path will he take 
visions of freedom 
that never awake 
they don't shoot him down 
and they don't hang him up 
but the rattlesnake's bite 
and the sun burning black 
a rattlesnake shake...
