Please check out my YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@firstep3 https://youtu.be/78nVMbGyJY8 I’ve walked through fire and called it home, Burned my bridges ‘til I stood alone. I broke my word and told some lies, And I'm fresh out of alibis. I’ve stolen everything I could, And there ain't much I've done that's good. Don't waste your time gettin' on your knees, Heaven ain't got no time for me. I've broken laws every place I've been, Some places I can't go back again. I've sinned in every way I can, You wouldn't call me a decent man. There's lots of things that I've done wrong, Hell's the only place where I belong. There ain't much hope for me no more, Because the devil’s keepin’ score. I’ve heard good men say there's hope for me, And that salvation can set me free, But I’ve done things that I can’t confess, Yeah, my whole life has been such a mess. The blood on my hands ain't comin' clean, You can't imagine the things I've seen. I made the choice to go down this road, And now I carry a heavy load. I've broken laws every place I've been, Some places I can't go back again. I've sinned in every way I can, You wouldn't call me a decent man. There's lots of things that I've done wrong, Hell's the only place where I belong. There ain't much hope for me no more, Because the devil’s keepin’ score. I've done some things I can't defend, So when my time comes to an end, I'll just accept what's meant to be, There ain't no mercy left for me. I've broken laws every place I've been, Some places I can't go back again. I've sinned in every way I can, You wouldn't call me a decent man. There's lots of things that I've done wrong, Hell's the only place where I belong. There ain't much hope for me no more, Because the devil’s keepin’ score.
