[00:17.66]We were born into nothing, hard up so to speak
[00:19.16]
[00:21.03]But love and affection this family afforded me
[00:23.35]
[00:25.72]Worries came early and often it seemed
[00:28.65]
[00:29.47]Fate was not pleasant still I was redeemed
[00:31.59]
[00:33.53]Then compassion soon faded to chaos
[00:35.78]
[00:37.79]As they did their best all the while
[00:39.85]
[00:41.03]When circumstance outweighs intention
[00:42.98]
[00:44.66]Sometimes the mountain's just too hard to climb
[00:47.10]
[00:49.09]They were cruel, they were ignorant
[00:51.28]
[00:52.91]They were beauty, they were kind
[00:55.09]
[00:56.78]They were patience, they were virtue
[00:59.35]
[01:00.85]They were crazy, they were mine
[01:03.22]
[01:26.89]I was young and I thought I knew everything
[01:27.64]It's so hard to change a fool's mind
[01:29.20]
[01:29.77]When you're stubborn by nature and quick to the draw
[01:32.14]
[01:33.51]And you're full of inherited pride
[01:35.20]
[01:37.39]But some lessons come harder than others
[01:39.33]
[01:42.57]And some senses are harder to find
[01:43.63]
[01:45.63]Your troubles won't end when you're saved by the bell
[01:47.88]
[01:49.44]You'll still answer to those you defied
[01:51.19]
[01:53.63]They were cruel, they were ignorant
[01:55.93]
[01:57.44]They were beauty, they were kind
[01:59.69]
[02:01.44]They were patience, they were virtue
[02:03.63]
[02:05.38]They were crazy, they were mine
[02:07.82]
[02:12.31]The heavens might sing out your praises
[02:13.88]
[02:15.81]But the heavens won't pay for your lies
[02:17.75]
[02:19.94]The sinners might pray for your problems
[02:22.00]
[02:23.88]But the sinners won't look in your eye
[02:26.13]
[02:33.07]They were crazy, they were mine
[02:33.76]They were cruel, they were ignorant
[02:33.95]They were beauty, they were kind
[02:34.19]They were patience, they were virtue
[02:34.38]They were crazy, they were mine
[02:34.57]They were cruel, they were ignorant
[02:35.31]They were beauty, they were kind
[02:35.94]They were patience, they were virtue
[02:36.19]They were crazy, they were mine
[02:36.38]The heavens might sing out your praises
[02:36.63]But the heavens won't pray for your lies
[02:36.88]The sinners might pay for your problems
[02:37.51]But the sinner won't look in your eye
