Four A.M.

Lyrics:
Four a.m. in Tustin…
Some nights decide your whole life.

Four a.m. in Tustin, dogs howling at the moon
Screen door rattlin’ like a hangman’s tune
Shadow on the window, six-foot-five in rain
Jesse King in denim, eyes full of Cain
Said, “Brother, fire it up, we ain’t got time to pray
Judge said nine o’clock… or I fade away
No more second chances, no more debts to spend
It’s a courtroom or a coffin — I ain’t goin’ in again.”

Keys shook in my hand like a dead man’s bell
Sun ain’t up but I can taste that hell

Four a.m. or ten long years
Gas tank runnin’ on faith and fear
Highway 5 like a razor blade
Southern California judgment day
He said, “Drive like the devil’s on our tail, my friend
It’s freedom by sunrise… or a cage for ten.”

Coffee black as prison bars, white lines pullin’ south
Dashboard flicker like a liar’s mouth
He laughed that outlaw laugh that don’t forgive
Said, “I done some dyin’… today I choose to live.”
Court papers folded in a tobacco tin
Last night’s sins crawlin’ under his skin
“I ain’t scared of dyin’, hell, I danced with worse
But I ain’t lettin’ no judge write my final verse.”

Four a.m. or ten long years
Steel cuffs ringin’ in my ears
County line like a loaded gun
Either we’re ghosts or we outrun the sun
He said, “Floor it like redemption’s round that bend
It’s freedom by sunrise… or a cage for ten.”

Blue lights bloom in the rearview glass
Time gets thin when the past comes fast
Every mile was a prayer unsaid
Every heartbeat countin’ dead

He said soft, like a man half gone:
“If I disappear… tell ‘em I held on.”

Four a.m… four a.m…
Ten long years… or we ride again…

Four a.m. and the sky turns red
Sunrise bleedin’ like the words he said
Courthouse steps in morning gold
Some men shatter, some don’t fold
He grinned like a sinner born again
Said, “Guess I stole ten years back from them.”

Engine tickin’ in the courthouse light
Two outlaws and a borrowed life
Four a.m. still ringin’ in my head…
Freedom’s just a clock hand swingin’…
Or ten years dead.
