For so long I've been away,
My family, I couldn't see every day,
I must move on but can I remain strong,
From my cell, I thought about the aspiration I have lost,
Trying to earn it all back at any cost,
The way we got treated away from our families we turned to each other,
Unrelated folks, I had to call brothers
Your blood will turn on you,
They cut you off without a second thought,
You reach out to them and they don't reply make it seem like it's your fault,
Try to make you down yourself and put you in a trap of loss,
I've been away my soul in a sorrowful place,
Open your eyes because at one point we've all been away
