| [00:21.46] |
I was born and raised the only son of a lawyer |
| [00:25.07] |
Till I was approximately the age of four or perhaps five |
| [00:29.07] |
|
| [00:31.44] |
I lost both my mother and my father |
| [00:34.25] |
|
| [00:35.18] |
Killed in a fire way up on the fourteenth floor |
| [00:38.30] |
|
| [00:42.36] |
Struck down by the time I was ten by an illness |
| [00:46.47] |
Which robbed me of the sight of the morning sun |
| [00:49.77] |
And that aint all |
| [00:50.89] |
|
| [00:52.76] |
A homeless child for the next five years |
| [00:55.51] |
|
| [00:56.44] |
With my dog clown by my side and my only friend |
| [01:00.21] |
Yeah, yeah, yeah. |
| [01:01.52] |
|
| [01:04.14] |
I fought my way through school |
| [01:05.79] |
|
| [01:07.04] |
Sound and touch the thing on which I could depend |
| [01:10.68] |
|
| [01:13.79] |
And you know what the, the, the kids |
| [01:15.92] |
Down my street werent too playful |
| [01:17.74] |
|
| [01:18.42] |
And right then it seemed like the whole world picked on me |
| [01:21.28] |
|
| [01:22.19] |
And ah yeah |
| [01:22.93] |
|
| [01:25.11] |
I worked my fingers to the bone |
| [01:26.98] |
|
| [01:27.86] |
Stretchin hide for a boot man in jersey town |
| [01:31.06] |
|
| [01:35.61] |
then, But but then I lost the last thing I had |
| [01:38.47] |
|
| [01:39.40] |
When fate reared its ugly head and took my dog clown |
| [01:43.02] |
|
| [01:46.39] |
I wandered way up north found a girl that loved like a woman |
| [01:51.82] |
Sixteen years old and felt like a woman |
| [01:55.30] |
But, but, but, but, but what Im trying to say is |
| [01:59.12] |
God please dont take her away from me |
| [02:03.36] |
|
| [02:13.02] |
I lost everything that I ever had |
| [02:15.26] |
You kicked my name into the dirt |
| [02:18.71] |

| [02:50.94] |

| [02:53.06] |
You kicked my name into the dirt |
| [02:55.56] |
What could I do |
| [02:57.50] |
|
| [03:12.71] |
I never knew how much love could hurt me |
| [03:15.15] |
|
| [03:16.09] |
But it never ever come my way before |
| [03:18.65] |

No, no, no, no, no |
| [03:23.08] |

| [03:25.95] |
Good God it aint never come my way before |
