What You Gonna Do

[Chorus:]
You can set me free or bang me up,
Just stop torturin’ me, tell me what you’re gonna do,
what you gonna do.
You can set me free or bang me up,
Just stop torturin’ me, tell me what you’re gonna do,
what you gonna do.

[Verse:]
So here we are again, it’s like déjà vu.
Everyone lookin’ at me,
tryin’ to work out if I’ve been telling the truth.
The court room’s the same,
but the jury’s changed.
And the judge is a she, not a he,
still they all look the same to me, yeah…
It’s just like it was, when I was here before,
Except my ex ain’t here, in the gallery, showin’ me support.
And that breaks my heart, ’cause I love her, no doubt,
Still I know a song, I can sing if I ever get out.
But the chances of that,
even with this new evidence comin’ to light, don’t change the fact,
An innocent man went down, first time.
Man, I’d be a fool to put my faith in them,
Only to be misplaced again, I remember how my heart felt breakin’ then.
It don’t wanna feel that hate again,
just do your worst ’cause it won’t break again…

[Chorus:]
You can set me free or bang me up,
Just stop torturin’ me, tell me what you’re gonna do,
what you gonna do.
You can set me free or bang me up,
Just stop torturin’ me, tell me what you’re gonna do,
what you gonna do.

[Verse 2:]
Yeah, I’ve been through the wars, up in that jail.
What you got to do is look at the scars
on my face to know that I’ve been through hell.
But I’m still breathin’, yeah, that’s right I’m still here.
I survived through the darkest days
in the darkest place, from my darkest fears,
Ain’t nothin’ you can do to me, ain’t already been done, except shootin’ me.
And people having a pop ain’t nothin’ new to me,
that’s what used to go on usually.

When I stay too long in one place,
I’mma getting screw face by many more fights.
How different would things be now, if I’d just made it home that night…
Ain’t even worth thinkin’ about,
what’s done is done, you can’t change the past,
Just please stop torturin’ me and make a decision, that’s all I ask.
‘Cause I’m ready to accept my fate, whatever the outcome of this case,
The only thing I can’t stand is the wait,
so hurry up already and decide today.

[Chorus:]
You can set me free or bang me up,
Just stop torturin’ me, tell me what you’re gonna do,
what you gonna do.
You can set me free or bang me up,
Just stop torturin’ me, tell me what you’re gonna do,
what you gonna do.

So what you gonna do?
When you gonna make up your minds?
I’ve been here for hours now,
and I still ain’t got a clue what you got in line.
Are you gonna send me back through the prison gates like you did before?
Or are you gonna set me free and let me live my life and know the score?
I’m sick sitting here listening through
this girl with the lies when I know the truth,
And I always have, she has too, the only people left to convince is you.
The jury’s out on me, once again, what’s new,
And now I’m past caring what fate they choose for me.
Just do what it is you’re gonna do and
do it soon so I can get up out this room.

You can let me go, you can let me rot,
Wait for parole, wanna do the rest of the years I’ve got.
You can cut me loose, or you can bang me up,
‘Cause to tell the truth, I don’t really give a fuck.

[Chorus:]
You can set me free or bang me up,
Just stop torturin’ me, tell me what you’re gonna do,
what you gonna do.
You can set me free or bang me up (bang me up),
Just stop torturin’ me, tell me what you’re gonna do,
what you’re gonna do.
You can set me free or bang me up (bang me up),
Just stop torturin’ me, tell me what you’re gonna do,
what you’re gonna do.
You can set me free or bang me up (bang me up),
Just don’t need me on a cliffhanger.
