Michael Leisher's Song


It's the words that a warrior once held close,
It's the words that a warrior once said he chose...
It's the words of a warrior… so listen close;
My family, my friends, my whole world gone,
Everything I knew proved to be wrong.
And it is so true when they sing that song;
Everything that you do comes back ten folds home.
A product of a bad life, and a bad land,
Can only make one thing;
And that's a broken man.
What I have become,
People can not understand.
They just sneer at the little muthafuka,
With a messed up plan.
Either way it goes, there's a lot of prisons now;
You gotta expect, if you slip you're prison bound.
Attached at the wrists with a chrome bracelet;
Surrounded by officers talking their shit.
It's a risk that we take, it's a price that we pay;
But you need to realize they will never go away;
'Coz there's always gonna be somebody standing in your way;
Walking with the undertaker, ready to take your place.
It's the words of a warrior, yeah;
It's the words that a warrior once said he chose...
