Redemption Behind Bars

30759, my identity concealed, Cell Block 9, a world that's real. Now you see, you're not above, Your fate lies in the hands of God's love. Why you're there, no longer matters, songs are made from chains that clatter. It's what you learn, harm yourself...harms everyone. The loneliest place on this vast earth, Secluded from those who know your worth. Nights filled with fear, days stretch like years, Pondering on, amidst the tears. No smokes, just tears, treated like cattle, Let go of all you've known, prepare for battle. Keep your mind strong, let it flow, You're not in control, this you must know. Remind yourself each passing day, It's temporary, they can't forever keep you at bay. Find joy in small things, a chocolate bar or the smell of rain, Dream, oh dream, of home again
