never getting out



looking threw the bars as i wait'
death roll' long wait '
never going to hold you in my arms again
can't take it another day'
i don't know what to say
god needs you 'in everyway '
growing up to fast 'that won't last
 'thinking of the past
in a ceil 'all  alone'
nowing i well never  get to go home
living in a cage
that have no page
living threw my stage' as i wait'
always get push around
always in a fights
always in salatary
looking threw the bars of time '
 waiting on death roll
as i wait
