30 Years to Life (feat. Myles Kennedy & The Conspirators)

So the story goes This is a tale that must be told For what could be your destiny You never know 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 It was a cold December A rip city night In a steel toe rage Made a big mistake Now I'll be doing time I was running with the order I was running out of time Now for me there is no quarter I don't want to be here I don't want to die Serving 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 ways They sent me on a mission Out to earn my stripes Should have known damn well When the curb stomp fell Things would never be right I was running with the order I was running out of time Now for me there is no quarter I don't want to be here How many nights I've cried Serving 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 ways 'Cause now I know Now I know I was wrong and I can't let this go I know Now I know I am sorry What a wretched soul What a big mistake Now I'm growing 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 'Cause when you're running with the order You're only running out of time Now for me there is no quarter I didn't want to be here I don't want to die Serving 30 years to life What I did I can't deny Now the sorrow in my heart will never fade My regret I know it well But it's too late to save myself Lord, I'm sorry for the error of my ways So the story goes This is a tale that must be told For the sorrow in my heart will never fade So the story goes This is a tale that must be told Yes I'm sorry for the error of my ways
