Lyrics The Workday Release – 25 Ago
Text:
I grew up here inside these walls
They’ll never let me free
‘Cause once when I was three days past 18
I took a life that threatened me
But they say I’m still the same
Second chances should be left to God
And I only have myself to blame
And I, can’t forget that night
It’ll be at my side, till the day I die
I’ve owned up the best I can
God knows I’m a better man
Than the reckless kid
That walked in 25 ago
And I don’t know another life
I grew up here on the inside
But I cannot wait to stretch
My legs when my father calls
And I walk out of this place
I grew up here inside these walls
They say I’ll never leave
You’re a killer and forever
To the world that’s all you’ll be
That was 25 ago
But the cold here keeps it fresh
Every sin between these metal bars
Is a stale and static mess
All that I can do is close my eyes
Hold fast to my mind
And the distant light
I’ve owned up the best I can
God knows I’m a better man
Than the reckless kid
That walked in 25 ago
And I don’t know another life
I grew up here on the inside
But I cannot wait to stretch
My legs when my father calls
And I walk out of this place
Yeah I cannot wait to stretch
My legs when my father calls
Yeah I cannot wait to stretch
My legs when my father calls
And then walk out of this place
