My Own Prison - Radio Edit / Remastered 2025

Court is in session, a verdict is in

No appeal on the docket today, just my own sin

The walls cold and pale, the cage made of steel

Screams fill the room, alone I drop and kneel

(And I said oh)

So I held my head up high

Hiding hate that burns inside

A stone that fuels their selfish pride

(And I said oh)

All held captive, bound from the sun

A sun that shines on only some

We the meek are all only one

I hear a thunder in the distance, see a vision of a cross

I feel the pain that was given on a sad day of loss

Lion roars in the darkness, only He holds the key

A light to free me from my burden and grant me life eternally

Should've been dead on a Sunday mornin', bangin' my head

No time for mournin', ain't got no time

Should've been dead on a Sunday mornin', bangin' my head

No time for mournin', ain't got no time

(And I said oh)

So I held my head up high

Hiding hate that burns inside

A stone that fuels their selfish pride

(And I said oh)

All held captive, bound from the sun

A sun that shines on only some

We the meek are all only one

I cry out to God seeking only His decision

Him offending when I create my own prison

I cry out to God seeking only His decision

Him offending when I create my own prison

(And I said oh)

So I held my head up high

Hiding hate that burns inside

A stone that fuels their selfish pride

(And I said oh)

All held captive, bound from the sun

A sun that shines on only some

We the meek are all only one

(And I said oh)

(I create)

All held captive, bound from the sun

(I create)

A sun that shines on only some

(I create)

We the meek are all only one

(I create in my own prison)

Should've been dead on a Sunday mornin', bangin' my head

No time for mournin', ain't got no time
