Some nights I wake up in cold sweats
Filled with regret
Thinkin’ bout the family I left
I chose crime over life
Crime over mine
Acting with no mind
No sense
Been 20 years since
That fateful day
When I almost took your life away
I’m glad you lived
It’s kinda like I died
Cause livin in a cage isn’t life
Back then I thought I was right
And now I’m in a cell tryin to move one
But I can’t…
Some nights I wake up in cold sweats
Filled with regret
Thinkin bout the family I left
At times my sentence is too much to carry
How do I survive while I’m alive and buried
Dying in a cell isn’t legendary
Youngsters out there if you can hear me
There’s no glory in crime or the criminal life
I sleep alone in a steel bed with a toilet by its side
And each day I have to figure how to live
While sentenced to die
Some nights I wake up in cold sweats
Filled with regret
Thinkin bout the family I left
I wish I could turn back the hands of time
Back to when I was free
And my baby was alive
I wish I never would of fired those shots
I’m sorry I hurt you
My positive choices are all I got to give you
My Soul cried when you forgave me… Did you?
Some nights I wake up in cold sweats
