Jail Bird
Criminal lies, criminal ties
To a past of what beneath we try
To escape a suffocating why.
Forever exploited by a past
Experiences gone wrong so fast
The bad seems to forever last.
Can’t seem to gasp a single breath of air
In a world so cold and so unfair
These four concrete walls, now my lair
Forever waiting to see the day
When justice will come my way
Until then I bow on knee and pray
