Too Tough To Die

(Too tough to die)
 I always wonder why
 My mama left town
 New Haven ain't a bag of salt
 When nobody knows your name
 You look so different over the phone
 Seven states away they're doin'
 Doin' the strange fruit swing
 When they come down
 You have to leave town
 I am
 Too tough to die
 ♪
 I am
 Too tough to die
 ♪
 Blessed are those who believe
 Who believe and have not seen
 I wasn't there
 And it's got me wondering
 The man you make then and now he's burning
 School's are learning you can't unlearn it
 No room to turn
 Let alone run
 And I am
 Too tough to die
 ♪
 I am
 Too tough to die
 ♪
 It's in their eyes
 It's unspoken
 Don't even know they're out to do you harm
 Can't even see the pulse beating
 In the axle of your arm
 Outlaw wearin' diamond patches of sunlight on his coat
 Livin in a cage make a 7 time daddy
 Lose his mind to roam
 Derision's a cold wind against my skin
 You keep a-flayin til there's no skin at all
 What's to hold it together when you stumble
 And you fall
 I am
 Too tough to die
 I am
 Too tough to die
