I had a roof over head. Had shoes on my feet. Yeah sure I was fed. But no one was there when I was in need, yeah. . So who am I now?. Who do you want me to be?.
It's like trying to light a match in the rain. Trying to find a way to explain. I came to meet the face that graced my cable TV. I'm his biggest fan, 'like this, him and me.
You didn't have to love me, like you did. But you didn't, but you did. And I thank you. You didn't have to squeeze me, like you did. But you didn't, but you did, and I thank you.
I always knew, that I'd like this place. You don't have to look too far, to find a friendly face. I feel alive when I'm walkin' on the street. I feel the heart of the city poundin' underneath my feet.
It feels like I'm walkin' on air. When we walk down our street. When the neighbors stop to watch us walk by. You can hear 'em talking (let them talk).
Hello, baby, it's only me. I know you're tired, it's been a long hard week. I was thinking maybe if you ain't got no plans. I just wanna be your man. Tonight I wanna be your man.
Every day of my life has been leading me here tonight. Feels like I'm coming home back to you, back to you. Every chance that I take. Every wrong turn and every mistake.
Frank Sinatra died today. I came home and found my mama crying. The TV had so much to say. Somehow I was thinking about dying. I'm seventeen and thinking about dying.
If there's something that needs fixing. I'm the man to see. Look me up, I'm listed. Just check under "B". If you're ever on the spot. Well, I'm good with my hands.
The silicon chip inside her head,. Got switched to overload. Nobody's gonna go to school today,. She's gonna make them stay at home,. And Daddy doesn't understand it,.
Yeah!. . All I know is what I've been sold. You can read my life like a fortune told. I've seen the dream, there's no land of Oz. But I got my brain and I got a heart.
How you spend your minutes is all that matters. All tomorrows come from yesterdays. When you're feeling broken, bruised and sometimes shattered. Blow out the candles on the cake.
We would take no prisoners. 'Cause there was nobody giving in. They came walking through my jungle. And met an angel about to sin. . I heard a voice from inside of me.
It ain't no fun lying down to sleep. And there ain't no secrets left for me to keep. I wish the stars up in the sky. Would all just call in sick. And the clouds would take the moon out.
This ain't a song for the broken-hearted. No silent prayer for the faith-departed. I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd. You're gonna hear my voice when I shout it out loud.
Look at this world. . It's filled with worn out faces. . Forgotten places and nothing changes. . Whatever happened to that new day rising. . We're just surviving and living is dying.
I guess this time you're really leaving. I heard your suitcase say goodbye. Well, as my broken heart lies bleeding. You say true love, it's suicide. You say you've cried a thousand rivers.
(In and out of love). (In and out of love). (In and out of love). (In and out of love). (In and out of love). (In and out of love). . Young and wired.
Why you wanna tell me how to live my life. Who are you to tell me if it's black or white. Mama, can you hear me? Try to understand.. Innocence is the difference between a boy and a man..
Alright, finished work on a Saturday. In a mood and I wanna play. I say in for my click around my way. . Hit the joint where the play is at. Shinin' and strictly cash.
