20 to life
Alone, all by myself
Crying out for help
Asking the Lord for his blessings everyday
But free will gets in the way
Free will of the ones who surround me
Everyday to me now becomes a plea
To just be left alone and let me be
But its hard coz I’m surrounded my no mercy
No mercy from the ones who commit crimes everyday
I made a mistake, man what can I say
I pay everyday and at night when I lay
I pray, and pray, and pray
Mom please don’t visit coz it’s too hard
I can’t take it no more I just can’t
On your face I see the pain from your eyes to your heart
Cannot fake a smile no more I just cant
I know I must pay for the crime I commit
But the way that I’m paying is just making me sick
When my sentence started I didn’t sleep for a week
But as time grew I grew immune to this shit
Life as I know it man is gone
No matter what happens in here I gotta be strong
Coz what I did was just so wrong
But 20 to life man is just so damn long
Mom please don’t visit coz it’s too hard
I can’t take it no more I just can’t
On your face I see the pain from your eyes to your heart
Can’t fake a smile no more I just cant
I ask God for forgiveness every chance I get
And I pray for his family coz I do regret
Taking the life of a son. uncle brother
And a special prayer just for his father and mother
So mom please don’t visit I will be alright
I believe I am strong enough to win this fight
That continues on a daily basis
But it gets better as I get to know the different faces
That I see everyday and everyday there’s someone new
That I say a prayer for till my 20 to life is trough
20 to life man, locked up behind these walls
20 to life man with limited phone calls
20 to life man when will it end
20 to life man. 20 to life my friend
20 to life man 20 to life.
