In and out of jail I roam but mostly I'm in jail
Ignore my grievances my home my wife my 5-year-old kid
I want something more than a cell, but my mind won’t give me that, no one will pay bail
And no, don't want no sympathy, in a cage is where I belong
And no, no civility, I won't be your dad, your father is gone

I don’t want my painkillers my doctor prescribed me
I'd rather my heroin, show up sick and dying
In front of my daughter, I'll be obsolete
My wife will give up on me I want no family
A whole lifetime, I was away
Filled with bad lies, I won't escape
