This song is about when a person is in Jail and he/she is feeling remorse for whatever he/she did and he/she realizes that he/she needs to face the consequence and ask God for mercy.
Lyrics
1st verse:
I know that I did something wrong
Many months my freedom is gone
I didn't use my common sense
Now I must face the consequence
Chorus:
I've been feeling guilt and remorse
and I wanna take the right course
As I sit on a wooden board
I need the mercy of the Lord
2nd verse:
As I sit alone in my cell
I feel i've put myself through hell
The things I did weren't very nice
I know I have to pay the price
(Chorus)
3rd verse:
I'm not asking for your pity
I'm not trying to be witty
I knew sorry wasn't enough
As I was sitting in Handcuffs
(Chorus)
