He's in charge of the action
Put a gun, in your face
And he gets a reaction

Has a beeper, and a car
I was his driver
Runnin' drugs, across the country
I was the survivor

I'm innocent, of anything
I'm innocent, but he's comin'

Charlie's out of prison
Charlie's out of prison
Charlie's out of prison

In Detroit, they make guns
Lotsa cars, lotsa criminals
You get big, you get hard
But you don't get too successful
Small time world, small time racket
Push yourself to the brink
Just to sell another packet

I'm innocent, of anything
I'm innocent, but he's comin'

Charlie's out of prison
Charlie's out of prison
Charlie's out of prison

Broken doors, broken windows
Broken reason, of my mind
Weakened by, desperation
The seduction of crime

Meaning of death, means nothing
When you need to survive
Caught believing, in life
A flash in eternal time

Yeah yeah
Charlie's out of prison
