CITIZEN COPE
"Penitentiary"
(Clarence Greenwood)

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 whoa
Well I'm waiting on a time when the 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
When the penitentiary is on fire
When the penitentiary is on fire
I'm waiting on the day
When the people walk free to see
The penitentiary is on fire
When there's no need to bleed
For your father
Or your son
Or the one that you've become and
I'm waiting on a time when the 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, yeah
When the penitentiary is on fire
When the penitentiary is on fire, yeah
When the penitentiary is on fire, whoa
When the penitentiary is on fire
