You ask how I'm doing
Right now not to well
Standing on this stage nervous as hell
No I'm not gone bail
I've got a story 2 tell
Hopefully you'll listen
I'm just here with a few things 2 say
I'll try not 2 stray
C it was on this day
I had 2 pray
For these words, 2 you is food to help you see the way
Pay attention
We 2 are a family divided
Like U we tried 2 hide it
No one to confide in
Trapped in a world of sin
Surrounded by walls that are 2 thin
But still I stood strong
Blind to the fact this was tearing us down
We didn't smile, we frowned
Like right now talking to you and you not hearing a thing I've said
None of this makes sense 2 U, that's Y U cover your head
When you go to bed, trying to forget what I just said
Then U realize, you're not along
Wanting to save the world
Ease the pain of our children, both boys and girls
Stop the abuse, there're other methods we can use
To get your child's attention, when it seems something's missing
And they just won't listen, love works did I mention
Remember you were once a child too
The smell of your dads' drunkenness
This is just a test
How do U get out of the mess
Thinking your problems will be solved
If you pack your things and head west
May as well, there's nothing left for U 2 do
Your mothers' prostitution problems
Over the years you've tried to help her solve them
Really didn't want to get involved
That pill U just took to forget about won't dissolve
U must figure out how this can be resolved
U pray and 4 now she's in your sight, problem solved
You lived to face another day
I can't understand Y we do a lot of the things we do
Knowing the consequences at the end we can't get use to
But does that stop us ... NO
It should but it don't, as for U maybe it will maybe it won't
GOD is GOD all by himself
He don't need yours and my help
But when he leaves you with and unseen whelp
Then you'll know for sure the cards have already been dealt
Can you relate to this…… yep
God can't, when you'r standing in your own way
