Hero

Found the girl of my dreams then I moved out the hood
Had a little baby life was all good
Then i got a call that somthing was wrong

Next thing i know i was back to my old ways
Doin' dirt til they came and took me away
Now eveything i worked for is gone, gone

Ohh i wish i woulda turned away
I would still be free today
Sometimes it dont pay to be the hero

Ohh i should looked into my baby's eyes
Before i took another mans life
It dont pay to be the hero

There's nothing you can say to bring her back
You lost her just like that
I wish that we could turn around

There's nothing you can say to bring her back
You lost her just like that
I wish that we could turn around

Don't know why it was so hard to let the life go
I was mad wasn't thinking about my family at all
And how much they depended on me

Now im looking at 20 years no parole
I don't get a chance to see my baby grow
And what shes gunna think about her daddy, daddy

Ohh i wish i woulda turned away
I would still be free today
Sometimes it dont pay to be the hero

Ohh i should looked into my baby's eyes
Before i took another mans life
It dont pay to be the hero

There's nothing you can say to bring her back
You lost her just like that
I wish that we could turn around

There's nothing you can say to bring her back
You lost her just like that
I wish that we could turn around

So many nights i dont sleep
Cuz i things about the things that i've seen
And whats really driving me crazy
Is the glass that seperates my family from me

Ohh i wish i woulda turned away (i wish i woulda turned away)
I would still be free today(i would be free today)
Sometimes it dont pay to be the hero(pay to be the hero)

Ohh i should looked into my baby's eyes (my baby's eyes)
Before i took another mans life (took another man's life
Somtimes It dont pay to be the hero (somtimes it dont pay to be the hero)

There's nothing you can say to bring her back
You lost her just like that
I wish that we could turn around (wish i could turn around)

There's nothing you can say to bring her back (nothing that will bring her back)
You lost her just like that (lost her like that)
I wish that we could turn around

Found the girl of my dream then moved out the hood
Got a little baby life was all good
Then i got a call that somthing was wrong
