Lyrics

0:16The gates have opened
0:17Now I'm a free man
0:19My time is over
0:21I need a new plan
0:23But I've had no loving
0:25For a year and a day
0:31My lady's waiting
0:32Got a taste for her wine
0:34She's wearing money
0:36But none of it's mine
0:38She's been surviving
0:40While I've been wasting away
0:46Back in my room
0:47It ain't quite the same
0:49You can't hide it
0:51I'm onto your game
0:53Rough justice
0:54There's no disguise
1:01And I can tell by
1:03The look in your eyes
1:08Rough justice
1:10I've had my share
1:15I've done my time
1:23But I'm still running scared
1:25Rough justice
1:27Coming down on me
1:30Long arm of the law
1:32Never setting me free
1:38Rough justice
1:42I bide my time
1:47Back in action
1:53I'm riding the crest
2:01And putting all that
2:08I've learned to the test
2:19No complications
3:05Taking it day by day
3:12Freedom of movement
3:16Freedom of choice
3:19Free to be right back here
3:21With the boys
3:25Ready to listen
3:29But you've got nothing to say
3:34Back in my room
3:36It ain't quite the same
3:49Just can't help it
3:52I'm part of your game
3:56Back in my room
3:58It ain't quite the same
4:03You can't hide it
4:06Just part of your game
4:11Rough justice
The gates have opened
Now I'm a free man
My time is over
I need a new plan
But I've had no loving
For a year and a day
My lady's waiting
Got a taste for her wine
She's wearing money
But none of it's mine
She's been surviving
While I've been wasting away
Back in my room
It ain't quite the same
You can't hide it
I'm onto your game
Rough justice
There's no disguise
And I can tell by
The look in your eyes
Rough justice
I've had my share
I've done my time
But I'm still running scared
Rough justice
Coming down on me
Long arm of the law
Never setting me free
Rough justice
I bide my time
Back in action
I'm riding the crest
And putting all that
I've learned to the test
No complications
Taking it day by day
Freedom of movement
Freedom of choice
Free to be right back here
With the boys
Ready to listen
But you've got nothing to say
Back in my room
It ain't quite the same
Just can't help it
I'm part of your game
Back in my room
It ain't quite the same
You can't hide it
Just part of your game
Rough justice
