It's two steps up and two steps back to my window
Two steps up and two steps back to my window
But there ain't no air coming in and out of my window
There was a fire and a young girl died in Ohio
Said I wasn't there, but they don't care in Ohio
I been sitting here for twenty years in Ohio
There's a light outside that shines all the time into the cells here
Sometimes at night they shine a light right in your face here
But your heart and soul remain in darkness, there's no grace here
There ain't no grace, there ain't no grace, there ain't no grace
there ain't no grace
Most of my days are a muddled maze of thoughts from long ago
Life was sweet running through city streets so long ago
Now I can't feel my breath, between life and death, I don't know when I'll go
When I die will my mama cry back at home?
Will my daddy pray, what will my brothers say, back at home?
I won't know, cause I live and die alone
I won't know, cause I live and die alone
