I went and got a letter from the judge the other day
It said that I was guilty for a crime I committed
I didn't know why there was time I should pay
But I'd be lying to deny that I did it
I should've held her but instead I killed him
I'm not violent
But I swear that If I had to do it again
I wouldn't think twice of what life I'd spare
Here we go now time for the prison
As my momma cries her eyes out
I watched my momma
At least for a minute
As she cried her little eyes out
Its alright I said to her
Everything has to work out
I know what I did was right
Take care of Jake and Cythnia
I'm a million miles from home
Ain't got no where to go
Did someone call for me
Cause I really need to know
I'm a million miles from home
Ain't got no where to go
Did someone call for me
Cause I really need to know
I went and wrote a letter to the judge the other day
I asked her if she'd ever had any children
I told her it was my baby sister who was raped
And had a suspicion but she still wouldn't listen
The jury was quick to decide
Witnesses did testify
I refuse to loose my life
While my momma cries suicide
Isn't what's right to appeal
Who will go out on a limb
No money and no real meals
This prison is filled with sin
Prosecution fed more lies
Over my dead body under oath
I'll take nothing less
For its my right to be free
I'm sorry
But it's my right to be free
I'm sorry
But it's my right to be free
I'm sorry
But it's my right to be free
I'm sorry
But it's my right to be free
I'm sorry I took the easy way out
I'm a coward and I bruise easy now you know
It must have been something that I couldn't help
I m sorry I took the easy way out
I'm a million miles from home
Ain't got no where to go
Did someone call for me
Cause I really need to know
