lyrics

Lay close to my switchblade knife
First night I close my eyes
Inside this cruel livin' hell
Inside this cruel livin' hell
They brought me here just to teach me what's right
All I learn is I got no rights
Inside this cold ugly cell
Inside this cold ugly cell
All my faith seems to fade...
Behind those bars...

I feel afraid...
ALL MY DREAMS JUST TURN TO SCARS!

I TRY TO FLY
But I still hit the ceiling
CAN I SURVIVE?
Oh God I'll still be willing
TO REACH THE SUN
My spirit's overunning
YOUR CHAINS YOUR SHIELDS
Your brainwashed mind's cunning

They claim they turn a bad man into good
But now I'm angry more than I should
They rape the dreams that I've made
They rape the dreams that I've made
Bad times caught in despair
Force my fist to stand in the air
And try to break this jail
And try to break this jail

Inside of me...
There's a spirit burnin' free...
That stands alive...
CAUSE IT JUST DENIES TO DIE!

I TRY TO FLY
But I still hit the ceiling
CAN I SURVIVE?
Oh God I'll still be willing
TO REACH THE SUN
My spirit's overunning
YOUR CHAINS YOUR SHIELDS
Your brainwashed mind's cunning

''..........LAY CLOSE TO MY SWITCHBLADE KNIFE
EVERY NIGHT I CLOSE MY EYES............''

I TRY TO FLY
But I still hit the ceiling
CAN I SURVIVE?
Oh God I'll still be willing
TO REACH THE SUN
My spirit's overunning
YOUR CHAINS YOUR SHIELDS
Your brainwashed mind's cunning
