They said this little boy would never come to be
they said this little boy had eyes that could not see
they said no one was more less likely than he
this little boy would soon grow up to become me
They told him to give up and never again try
they told himto be silent and accept their lie
they told him that he could never pass them by
i told you motherf*ckers now its time to die
Chorus:
i've grown, and you've stayed the same
i've shown, that i have a name
i took, all that you took from me
i look, motherf*cker i can see
This little boy could never find his hiding place
this little boy can't hide the scars upon his face
this little boy who tries too hard to plead his case
this little boy can't get aheadbut keeps the pace
They taught him everything he will not know
they taught him never speak and never show
they taught him that he has nowhere to go
they never taught him his life was not low
