Behind Bars
I never knew how much I appreciated freedom
Until it was taken me
The crimes I've committed has brought me to a place that I rather not be
A day is nothing more then a day as I sit here rotting in this cell
Wishing someone would take me out of this world because this is worse then
hell
As the years go by I soon realize that freedom is nothing more then a distant
memory of the past
Perhaps I'll be able to find the piece within myself I have been searching for
at last
As the end draws near and it gets closer to my etneral sleep
I ask the lord before I'm judged to look at the life that he's given me
A neighborhood field with drugs, death , and poverty
I wanted to do the right thing but was forced into a life of crime to support
my family
Now am I guilty or a victim of society
A tragedy or a menace
All I want is forgiveness
Before my final sentence
