CHAINS

I deserve what I got
Can't hardly complain
Left here to rot
Bound in these chains

Captivating eyes
A scintillating smile
"Please hold this," she surmised
"Just for a while"

My eyes burned
When they sprayed me
As I turned
The guards said to me

"Foolish man
There's no turning back
Your suitcase, black and tan
Is full of crack"

I deserve what I got
Can't hardly complain
Left here to rot
Bound in these chains
