One Step Ahead
May 4, 2011
You pity me
put me down
and see me standing amongst society
unworthy of your presence
i constantly stumble in sin
it taunts me
you think I'm playing games with the black man,
but you got one step ahead
you won
and now you are gone,
no more sin
it left with you,
you played the games
you made me lose!
i had no chance, not against you
you left, i had no one to lead me
i got lost in the shadows of the past,
no more sin now
I'm free
