Lyrics

[Spoken Word] I wanna see those hands, c'mon [Intro] So the story goes This is a tale that must be told For what could be your destiny, you never know [Verse 1] I never meant to be here I never even tried But until you know, when you're lost and down You come to trouble in time [Verse 2] It was a cold December A rip city night In a steel toe rage, made a big mistake Now I'll be doing time [Pre-Chorus] I was runnin' with the order I was runnin' out of time (Running out of time) Now, for me, there is no quarter I don't wanna bе here I don't wanna die [Chorus] Sеrvin' 30 years to life What I did, I can't deny Now the sorrow in my heart will never fade I remember it so well The night I sent that boy to Hell Lord, I'm sorry for the error of my way [Verse 3] They sent me on a mission Out to earn my stripes Shoulda known damn well When the curb stomp fell Things would never be right [Pre-Chorus] I was runnin' with the order I was runnin' out of time (Runnin' out of time) Now, for me, there is no quarter I don't want to be here How many nights I've cried [Chorus] Servin' 30 years to life What I did, I can't deny Now the sorrow in my heart will never fade I remember it so well The night I sent that boy to Hell Lord, I'm sorry for the error of my way [Bridge] Now I know, now I know I was wrong and I can't let this go I know, now I know Lord, I'm sorry, what a wretched soul What a big mistake [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] Now I'm growin' old 18 years or more to go I waste way in this cage I'm all alone That's how the story goes This is a tale that must be told For what could be your destiny You never know [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause when you're runnin' with the order You're only runnin' out of time (Runnin' out of time) Now, for me, there is no quarter I didn't wanna be here I don't wanna die [Chorus] Serving 30 years to life What I did, I can't deny Lord, I'm sorry for the error of my way I remember it so well It's too late to save myself Lord, I'm sorry for the error of my way Alright [Outro] (So the story goes) (This is a tale that must be told) Lord, I'm sorry for the error of my way (So the story goes) (This is a tale that must be told) Lord, I'm sorry for the error of my ways, uh Alright
