i wish i didn't grow up
in the town that i grew up in
kept me silent

kept me stupid
never fought back
never fought back


where were my friends
to keep me up, down

that's all it took to keep me on the ground
rubbing mud in my eyes
rubbing mud in my eyes


don't want to live today
was taught to tell

walk away not fight
i wish to me
muhammad ali


good morning sun
good morning light

each day it's nice to see that you've come back
to give us all
give us all

another chance

installing pride to make a glory ride

i want to love you
but i must save my hide
and these fists that hang beside my side

i realize what i gotta do
na-nanny-boo-boo
nanny-nanny-boo-boo


i'm feeling better today
i kicked his $$#

it wasn't hard
i beat him down
it wasn't hard

this vibrate sound
adrenaline


what will mother say?
blackened both his eyes
busted but with twice the pride


i was mad 'cause i was sad
now there's a smile on my face

knuckles hurt he's in the dirt
feels like i'm taking a girl to second base (second base)
this disrespect is what is wrecked

just like the nose on that jerk's face
i earned my place


shaking mad
oh so glad
sweet, sweet gift

i never had
