you try
hummer beamer
white collar job
picket fence home
adulteries and mistresses
to strip me of pride
years of knuckle fighting
to have it by my side
badge hangs on a chain
cell keys close to your fingertips
badge reflects sin i attempt to reach for hope
blinded cursed
beat down
i try to cope
stretching for the end of the rope
attached to my kids
from my heart and sould
you aim to rid
loneliness fear i thought i hid
choose one key pandora's box
labels stigmas prejudices hate
attack me
predator to predator
lifeless motionless bait
i wait
of human rights i don't rate
will you still try
your fake fascade
crooked smile tainted touch of cell keys
to strip my pride
years of knuckle fighting
to have it by my side
