Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well I'm waiting on the day when the people walk free to see
When the penitentiary is on fire
When there's no need
To bleed
For your mother or your brother
Or the one that come before you
[Verse 2]
Well I'm waiting on a time when people walk free to see
When the penitentiary in our mind
There's no need to bleed
For your father or your son
Or the one that you've become
When the penitentiary is on fire
When the penitentiary is on fire
[Verse 3]
I'm waiting on a day when the people walk free to see
The penitentiary is one fire
There's no need to bleed
For your father or your son
Or the one that you've become
[Verse 4]
I'm waiting on a time when the people walk free to see
When the penitentiary in our mind
There's no need to bleed
For your mother or your brother
Or the one that come before you, yeah
[Verse 5]
When the penitentiary is on fire
When the penitentiary is on fire
When the penitentiary is on fire
The penitentiary is on fire
Fire
