In The Light...
A ten hour shift, No supper yet
This ain't my day again
Strobes light my car... I'm it, I bet
My ass begins to pain
The muffler charge is bull-shit
I fixed it just last week
He saw the bill...The twit
But, he ain't looking meek
He says I've got a warrant out
I must go with him right now
He won't say, what it's about
Jesus! It's getting worse...Somehow
The accusations are ridiculous
I'd never hurt a child
And just me and you, you know...us
Someone's imagination has gone wild
That dirty bitch, she told the kids
Just what they had to say
To put me on the prison skids
I got ten years, that day
As soon as I was in a cell
That fucking guy moved in
I should've heard the warning bell
Got my bed...and her in sin
She admitted to some people known
That It was all a ploy
She destroyed, all I had grown
For her "golden boy"
Lots of lives torn up
A child of two, was twisted tight
Now she's got her Lovin' cup
But I've just begun to fight
Statements that recant, the tales that were told
Evidence mishandled, and cops too sure of truth
D.A's made illegal moves, they really were so bold
All making sure that I paid, stole ten years of my youth
I ain't saying, you got to believe me now
But, just you wait and see
I'll see this all reversed... somehow
The truth will set me free
