Death Row Lyrics

Well, up here's the window sitting way up high
I can't look up enough to see the sky
There ain't no good light here below
Death Row
Death Row

Don't want no preacher man to come around
I don't need him to lay my burden down
Already told Jesus everything I know
Death Row
Death Row

When it's time for my last request
Tell my mama that I did my best
Tell my baby that I love her so
Death Row
Death Row
Death Row
Death Row

Got a calendar on my wall
Marking days 'til I get the call
'Til it's time for me to go
Death Row
Death Row
Death Row

What is the Meaning of Death Row?

In this haunting melody, the protagonist grapples with his impending execution. The lyrics paint a stark picture of his existence on death row, where he is isolated from the world and even deprived of natural light. He rejects the comfort of a preacher, having already reconciled himself with his fate. His last wish is for his loved ones to know he did his best and that he loves them. The song serves as a chilling commentary on capital punishment, exploring themes of regret, love, and finality through the eyes of someone awaiting their end. #CapitalPunishment #Regret #Love
