Things I Left Behind

one of these days i will find all the things i left behind love from my family, love from my friends my life possiblities with no ends but i wasnt happy, i wanted more i was looking for fun, i was looking to score i met the fast life and i layed it down they showed me the ways and i painted the town you want it, i got it, you need it, im there the thrills, the excitement, i will sleep when im dead i still cant believe some of the that i said when things changed again and i caught this case i couldnt turn down the music i had to face they rolled up ten deep all carrying guns i had no where to hide, no where to run i lost the battle, i lost the fight now im surrounded by people with not a soul in sight ten foot fences, stainless steal locks nothing but time to stare at the clocks cold concrete walls, cool concrete floors losing my mind behind these closed doors bullet proof glass and hard metal bars forever blocking my veiw of god and his stars so now here i sit still trying to find all of the things i left behing
