The women of the former days used to take two husbands,
but the woman of today (if they attempt to do this) must be
stoned.

~the earliest Mesopotamian law code [written] (2350 BCE) attributed to King Urokagina of Lagash

Everybody must get stoned.
~King Zimmy (1966 AD)

Long before your rusted chains
Busted walls, barbed wire cage
Tried to hold me down

Time was just a fist of change
Tossed in the water just in case
You came around

I could lose myself
I could curse like hell
But I've lost the will to even try
If you ever doubt, listen to the sound
No lies ... This is my last goodbye

Pardon me if I appear
To see beyond the now and here
Try to save myself

I'm not the kind to pin the blame
But I can't take more of the same
Living on your shelf

Door closes, another one opens
I am finally free

Long before your rusted chains
Busted walls and barbed wire cage
Tried to hold me down

Time was just a fist of change
Tossed in the water just in case
You ever came around

I could lose myself
I could curse like hell
But I've lost the will to even try
If you ever doubt, listen to the sound
No lies ... This is my last goodbye


--Kenny Wayne Shepherd/Mark Selby/Tia Sillers, from the Album Live On
