In Jail Lyrics by FIF

illumin8

2017

[Intro]
Have you ever been
Locked up?
I know how it feel
It feel like

[Verse]
I was right there in jail when I wrote this
Situation hopeless
Chains in my brain I was drained by the ropes in
My frame while I hang in the open
Nothing was dope then
So no question what I’m smoking
Depression, depression
Bring your suggestions
Whatever else you can mention
That I haven't already tried
Heard the truth and the lies from the fools and the wise
And I
Thought I'd outgrow this prison
But I'm losing my hope and reason for living
They tell me I'm free I don't feel like it
Look at me, now see how I be like this
I see
Light
At the end of the tunnel
But I think it's a black hole at the end of the funnel
Falling, but I keep trying to rise
Suddenly I lift my eyes, I see Christ
And his
Love touch brings me to life
Chains fall off now I'm free to fly
Looking down at the prison floor
I see the keys that I need to release the bars
Then I prison break, like Schofield did
And I kneel to pray in the open scene
In front of my enemies, free to praise the king
Who makes slaves kings, does amazing things
And so, if you're still there in jail
You addicted to something, or scared of failure
You don’t see things getting better
Open the red letters, get rid of the fetters
And just fly!
