A message to others like me
What are you in here for?
Let me guess - possession.
The system is oozing
with the deadly infection.

27 years old
serving 2 to 10
this is the 2nd time
meth brought you to the penn.

Living with 8 women
within a 20 foot space
obeying all the rules
so you don't catch a case.

Saying "yes, Ma'am" - "no, Ma'am"
to a power starved guard
kissing a person's ass
has never been so hard.

Your addiction to meth
must come to an end
use this time wisely
to fully comprehend

that life behind bars
is no life at all
you can turn it around
and stand proud and tall.

Throw down your pipe
toss the razor blades too
You owe it to yourself
to live the life meant for you.
