grip the bars that hold my mind   and pace the cell that's stuck in time   immune to change and far from love   i curse this world and God above      life is a cage when you're framed and confined   sentence of pain 25 to life   i breathe in the sky as i recall the past   and realize these are my last      need to kill this painful lie   look over shoulder with my hand on knife   i can't keep living my life this way   i'll do my time but i won't behave      life is a cage when you're framed and confined   sentence of pain 25 to life   i breathe in the sky as i recall the past   and realize these are my last      the road to hell is paved with good intent   pass barbed wire and cyclone fence   destiny lies far from this place   a cemetary plot my final resting place      got to break this soulless cage   return my life to human shape   a hell on earth is what they say   kill or be killed same shit different day      life is a cage when you're framed and confined   sentence of pain 25 to life   i breathe in the sky as i recall the past   and realize these are my last   i breathe in the sky as i recall the past   and realize these are my last      5 steps of freedom   5 steps of freedom   5 steps of freedom   5 steps   5 steps   5 steps   5
