In the alleyways of society

There’s a life most never see

The violent and depraved

Witness to the abuse and suffering

Something in me changed

And I will never be the same

Can’t sleep

Frozen in fear

Scream out

No one hears

Deeply scarred

Back to the alleys I’ll go

Better life with my enemies

Than in a broken home

I try and try

To deny my criminal side

But thе rage and anxiety

I cannot hide

Can’t keep living in pain

Circling thе drain

The things I’ve worked for

Never meant a thing

Money, love, respect

Never meant a thing
