I had it all Or I thought so anyway And then there came the day When I knew I’d been deceived It was tailor made The hole I’d dug myself That morning they came knocking ‘Couldn’t blame nobody else You make mistakes Then you make them all again And find yourself deserted By the people you called friends All it takes Is for one deal to go bad You’re signing your confession As they take all that you have And all this years spent sitting here Waiting to be free My day has come And I can finally see Gloria –ah –ah –ah –ah Gloria –ah –ah –ah -ah Gloria –ah –ah –ah -ah I’ve dreamed of waking Up beyond that wall It looks like I might make it after all There’s a kid in here Reminds me of my son I watch him with the others When they laugh about what they’ve done So many ways To impress one so young The day they let him out of here He’s gonna find himself a gun I tried to say Tried to make him understand Fear is not respect And it won’t make a boy a man Oh you make them all again It seems that I offended One of those godforsaken men In all these years spent sitting here That last thing that I see Is a baby face With a blade that’s made for me Gloria –ah –ah –ah –ah Gloria –ah –ah –ah -ah Gloria –ah –ah –ah -ah I guess some things were Never meant to be Gloria –ah –ah –ah –ah Gloria –ah –ah –ah -ah Gloria –ah –ah –ah –ah So open up that gate and Welcome me My spirits flown And I’m finally free Finally free… Yeah!
