Battering down sentence, fighting against convictions Battering down sentence, fighting against convictions I find myself growing in an environment Where finding food is just as hard as paying the rent In trodding these roads of trials and tribulations I've seen where some have died in desperation To keep battering down sentence, fighting against convictions Battering down sentence, fighting against convictions In a family of ten and raised in the ghetto Hustling's the only education I know Can't grow no crops in this concrete jungle A situation like this is getting too tough to handle To keep battering down sentence, fighting against convictions Battering down sentence, all day long, fighting against convictions With a pregnant woman, yes, and five kids to care for Can't cool my heels, I've got to do the town Skillful as I am, the jailer-man is bound to find me I pray the day will come when I shall be free from Battering down sentence, fighting against convictions Battering down sentence, all live long day, fighting against convictions To be trapped and caught and taken before judge and angry jury Pleading before men, who seem to have no mercy Can't afford to find myself down in the dungeons I've got to stay free so that my kids won't be Battering down sentence, fighting against convictions Battering down sentence, all live long day now, fighting against convictions Now a fugitive at large could this be my destiny With no one to care for the welfare of my family In solitude I've found new faith and hope in this I'll be secure For mind and soul would soon be weary just couldn't take no more Battering down sentence, all live long day, fighting against convictions Children hear me when I say Battering down sentence, all day long, fighting against convictions Hear me when I sing my song Battering down sentence, fighting against convictions © NUMBER 11 MUSIC; Bu döküman AkorMerkezi.com'da yayınlanmıştır. http://www.akormerkezi.com
