Penitentiary Lyrics


Well, I'm waiting on the day
When the people walk free to see
When the penitentiary is on fire
When there's no need to bleed
For your mother or your brother
Or the one that comes before you, whoaWell, I'm waiting on a time
When people walk free to see
From the penitentiary in our mind
When there's no need to bleed
For your father, or your son
Or the one that you've become, whoaWhen the penitentiary is on fire
When the penitentiary is on fireI'm waiting on the day
When the people walk free to see
The penitentiary is on fire
There's no need to bleed
For your father, or your son
Or the one that you've become andWell, I'm waiting on a time
When people walk free to see

From the penitentiary in our mind
When there's no need to bleed
For your mother or your brother
Or the one that comes before you, yeahWhen the penitentiary is on fire
When the penitentiary is on fireYeah, when the penitentiary is on fire
Ho, the penitentiary is on fire

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
