Born in Prison lyrics

Artist  : John Lennon 
Song : Born in Prison
 


We're born in a prison
Raised in a
prison
Sent to a prison called
school

We cry in a prison
We love in a
prison
We dream in a prison like
fools


Wood becomes a flute when it's
loved
Reach for yourself and your battered
mates
Mirror becomes a razor when it's
broken
Look in the mirror and see your
shattered fate


We live with no
reason
Kicked around for no reason
Thrown
out without reason like tools


We work
in a prison
And hate in a prison
And die in
a prison as a rule


Wood becomes a
flute when it's loved
Reach for yourself and
your battered mates
Mirror becomes a razor
when it's broken
Look in the mirror and see
your shattered fate


We live in a
prison
Among judges and wardens
And wait
for no reason for you
We laugh in a
prison
Go through all four seasons
And die
with no vision of truth


Wood becomes a
flute when it's loved
Reach for yourself and
your battered mates
Mirror becomes a razor
when it's broken
Look in the mirror and see
your shattered fate
