The Choice is Yours

By LeVar E Jones

Sitting by myself, in the realm of my thoughts
Where would I be today, if I wouldn't of got caught?
Can't determine that, I can't dwell on the past
But only move forward, how long can this last?
I wake every day shaking my head in disgust,
Surrounded by people, that I know I can't trust.
The one's I'm talking bout say hi every single day,
but if you're not around, they're in the guards face
Think their 'snitchin' will make him and the guards friends,
but if his job is on the line, he'll turn yo ass in!
Prison life is hectic, no matter what prison you go,
all the way from the minimum yard, to a level 4,
cut throats thieves and notorious booty bandits
the risk you take after a prison sentence is handed
down to you, where there's 21 years on your AOJ,
that abstract of judgement, which sends you on your way
you cry at night, because of your burden
call you by your last name, and last 2 of your CDC number
It's the price you pay, like playing Russian Roulette,
stabbings in front of you how worse can this get?
If you commit crimes on the street, after seeing that
you deserve to be in prison, on a bunk that's triple stacked
you deserve to cry out that's what you get for being bored,
now you get time to think about it, The choice is yours!
