Escape- only in my mind Hate- within these walls I find Break- the cycle of viciousness But not in here Take- nothing from me, Don't Make- a bad man out of me Hate- within these walls I find And I'm right here
There is no place for the weak here This is the home of the wicked men Even if I'm just passing through At any time in my life could end I will die fighting if I have to I will bring one of you with me I'm only here for moment in time It could become an eternity
I'll take with me what I see behind these walls So that I'll never forget when I start to slip or fall Wait! remember those behind the walls who live in regret And some won't make it out at all
Don't forget I am all alone in here That is how I'll do my time These are the days of reckoning I'm lucky to be just a passerby I will stay longer if I have to I will retain my dignity I am only here for a moment in time It feels like an eternity I'll take with me what I see behind these walls So that I'll never forget when I start to slip or fall Wait! remember those behind the walls who live in regret And some won't make it out at all
