lyrics

I’m through living like an orphan boy
I know , I know it ain’t right
I got a family out there
Probably worried and scared
Wondering if I’m still, wondering if I’m still alive

I was an honest boy before I met you dogs
Now I’m in the black like the rest
Powders and pills
Trying stuff that could kill
We must have a, we must have a death wish

I’m going home
Where they’re always gonna take you in
No matter where you been, you’re home

The city is like a shadowland
Everyone does what they want
No self-control
No one to say no
Nobody’s growing stronger, they never grow up at all

Chorus
Chorus 2 - Yesssss, Jesus is alive :P

I’m ready for the wiser days
But first I gotta cash out
While I’m up some
While I had some fun n’
Before I’m down in the hole and down in the ground
