Why

Why me
Why can’t I be free
Why do I have to do such a bad crime
Why am I sitting all alone doing my time
Why did I do this to my kids
Why am I doing all these bids
Why did I have to be such a fool
Why did I use these crimes to get drugs as a tool
Why did I follow the man I love around all these towns
Why did we act like such clowns
Why did my life end up like this
Why why why couldn’t I give my loved ones a goodbye kiss
