Vilified Lyrics - Singles - Even Rude

I thought you wanted to be my friend. I thought you wanted to be my... 

When-I see your face for real, I stop-and then I clear my through 

When I-try to talk again, I can't-and in a flash you're gone. 

When I-wish upon a star, I get-a good, good view 

I'm outside in your back yard, watching everything you do. 

I'm just a man, that's all I am, but I can take it just like any other can. 

Cause I've been down with the criminal minded, oops rewind it, I gotta go back now. 

When I was known as the TV kid, sometimes I hid and looked out my back porch. 

Never saw nothin' not worth nuttin' up in the old days. 

It took me a little while to realize the error of my old ways. 

Clean and narrow is the sparrow that always flies straight 

I'm earning my wings and feathers but I don't have it all together yet. 

and I-can't see through this shame, what i wanna do 

can't get through the pain, that's why I'm hawking you. 

but I can take it just like any other can... 

C 

I'm just a man, that's all I am and I can take it just like any other can 

I learned to hate the public, I love it. No one talks to me, like I'm above it, so shove it. 

Because I was the bandit, el bandito, kinda the fly one. I tried to find a job before this, but I couldn't find one. 

So I took it upon myself to think and be a changed man, 

reaping what I saw and treating my cancer with a firm hand 

try walking over me now, see if I don't snatch you and catch you up 

in the web that has more bridges than that book you read 

and I-can't see through the shame, what i wanna do 

can't get through this pain, that's why I'm hawking you 

but I can take it just like any other can 

I can see her-punk better grow up 

twisting my mind-you better not show up 

in the bushes-tomorrow night 

the button she pushes, but that shit ain't right! 

C 

I'm vilified.
