The Life I Chose

[Lyrical Assassin]

i awake in an empty cell, cold and alone

wishing i could hear my family say "jesus welcome home"

dying of lonliness, shivering away

i wish i could escape, but i gotta stay

cuz all of my homies were fake, all they wanted was money

they could give a shit, hope they're not raping my honey

if only they stayed true and didnt betray me

instead they ratted me out, i can barely breath

never in my life have i ever felt so decieved

i should have left this life, and came back home

instead of living the life where i would die all alone

i can picture my mother holding a picture of me

wishing her little boy would come home safely

but the reality is that he'll never see daylight

i wish i could make everything right

but i have to pay god back for what i took from him

i wish i never pulled the trigger, and killed that guy and his kin

no amount of money is worth the lives of 5 people

i wish i was at church, paying respect to all my people

im begging god for mercy, asking for his forgiveness

for all the things ive done.. because i cannot fix this

by myself

please god im begging and crying for your help

otherwise all you'll hear is an electric chair in use

and a body bag with a tag that'll read "Jesus"

Jesus is my name...its pronounced Hey-Soos for those who dont know..

It's not bad, either. Keep writing - it's the only way you will get better

I figured that by the second time you used it in the piece. I had more fun imagining it used the other way the first time I saw it.

Sort of a second-coming reference.
