How can I explain so you can understand I’m not to blame for it getting out of hand You call me a user but there’s something you should know I’m being held prisoner in a cage that doesn’t show You say I hold the key to the prison that I am in Yield to ‘The Powers That Be’ to find your God within Have faith in yourself look to a ‘Higher Power’ Let everything you’ve felt no longer make you cower Listen to what I say and keep an open mind Sobriety brings dismay and depression combined I’ve tried living sober, ‘One Day At A Time’ If I could do it over I’d still do the crime © Copyright 2008 L.

I’d Still Do The Crime
How can I explain so you can understand I’m not to blame for it getting out of hand You call me a user but there’s something you should know I’m being held prisoner in a cage that doesn’t show You say I hold the key to the prison that I am in Yield to ‘The Powers That Be’ to find your God within Have faith in yourself look to a ‘Higher Power’ Let everything you’ve felt no longer make you cower Listen to what I say and keep an open mind Sobriety brings dismay and depression combined I’ve tried living sober, ‘One Day At A Time’ If I could do it over I’d still do the crime © Copyright 2008 L.
