Lyrics

Yeah
Three trees a day and a clock on the wall
That'll make a man think different
County blue sittin' in a hard steel chair
Public defender talkin' like he really care
My baby on the phone sayin' "Keep your head up"
But I can hear in her voice she been cryin' instead
Same four walls and the same damn routine
Cold breakfast trays and dirty white sheets
Everybody tough 'til them lights go dim
Then you hear grown men fightin' demons within
Time moves slow when your future ain't clear
Can't trust half the stories that you hear in here
One man prayin', one man losin' his mind
One waitin' on a sentence that'll bury his life
County time, feelin' like the world moved on
While I'm stuck countin' cracks from dusk 'til dawn
Late night thoughts and regrets hit hard
When your whole life fit inside one yard
County time change a man for real
Teach you who fakin' and who really keep it real
Some come home, some break inside
Everybody got scars from county time
Collect calls ring but the answers get shorter
People on the outside slowly movin' forward
Bills stack up, kids grow older
And every bad memory sit heavier on your shoulders
I done seen hard men stare at the floor
Tryna hide pain they can't ignore
Ain't no flex when them gates close shut
Just survival and learnin' who you can trust
Some nights I just stare through the glass
Thinkin' how fast good years really pass
Dreamin' 'bout silence that don't come from a cell
Just one night outside would feel like heaven instead
Concrete beds and fluorescent lights
Make you replay every wrong in your life
Some people leave bitter, some leave wise
Some never mentally make it outside
County time make your soul feel tired
Burn away lies like a brush fire
When freedom gone, truth gets loud
You learn real quick who's still around
County time coldest teacher alive
Either lose yourself or somehow survive
And when them doors finally open wide
You ain't ever quite the same outside
