SAMUEL

I did the crime
I did the time
Now all I want to do
Is escape

I am not looking for pity
In this rundown city
Leaning against a well 
As I vape

I ask the Lord above me
If anyone could love me
Or have I gone too far
To go back

I heard him say, Child
You are still meek and mild
In my eyes
You never fell off the track
