Back Against the Wall

Sittin' here waiting for tomorrow

But I don't think it'll ever come

Well, just to think that I'm a young dude

My whole life is almost gone, well, well

This prison life's a pressure

Keeps my back against the wall

Constant lookout for the snakes and the bandits

Programmed leans toward us in law

I keep my back against the wall

Back against the wall

Back against the wall

My friends now have all but cut me loose

On the outside playing safe, it's alright

'Cause in here's just like leaving the homeland, baby

If I survive it back, I could love your face

You're just a number from the past

I'm still sitting here today

I don't know nothing about my future, baby

But with my life, I gotta pay

They got my back against the wall

Back against the wall

Back against the wall

Back against the wall

Back against the wall

My back against the wall

Back against the wall

Back against the wall

Sittin' here waiting for tomorrow

Don't think it'll ever come

Just to think that I'm a young dude

Well, my whole life is almost gone, well

Street con gonna show me the ropes

Oh, coolest way to deal it in the streets, hey, hey

Took my mind, woman, damn near my soul

Judge prison sentence, then cut me deep, hey

They had my back against the wall

Keep my back against the wall

Back against the wall

Keep my back against the wall

Back against the wall

Back against the wall

Back against the wall

Back against the wall

Back against the wall

Back against the wall

Back against the wall

Back against the wall

Back against the wall

Back against the wall

Wall, back against the wall

Wall, baby
