Verse:
I wish somebody'd stay with me
Guide me to a better place
I swore on my soul when I was released
This time I would change my ways
Oh but deep inside I knew
That the hurt in my soul would'nt keep
Another day
And I'd need all the angels in heaven to see me through
Chorus:
So I'm hitting the old highways
For choices I'm told I made
By Armani suits in High Courts
Just trying to shoot
[Down] my hopes
[Down] my dreams
[Down] my Liberty
Verse 2:
The man I called dad was there for me
Till I was two years old
Mama was torn between the bottle and home
She thanked me for the things I stole
Lift:
Oh the sticks and stones that broke my bones
In foster home and jails
All the friends I made
In the games arcades
Were never around to post my bail
Peddling half truths I can't afford
