behind bars (Steve)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I've been here before

I have

I can tell you

 

I was 14 the first time

just some silly joke

 they didn't like the joke

 I started learning here

about playing jokes

without getting caught

 

I came back aged 17

thought I could get away with it

if it was for a good cause

some Robin Hood syndrome

 

then again and again

seven times all in all

time passes slowly

in here 

 

I did learn more about crime

but about other things too

good things

like how good it is to learn

become educated

things I thought weren't for me

 

I was lucky to be strong 

not only physically

my mind is strong

that's how I survive

 

two years to go

I count days

remember my loved ones

and wait

wait

wait 

forever

it seems
