Born in West London
May '97
To a single mother, had her heart broken
Da da-da, dum
Da da-da, dum
A melting pot, a city was an ocean
I could dip my toes in, everybody dove in
Da da-da, dum
Da da-da, dum
No one know what I know
Why my tears dry
A part of you is a hair from me
But I feel so alone on the inside
The child in me can't get no peace
Mother, I feel just like you
But don't see me in you
The world don't treat me like you, na-na
Mother, I feel just like you
And I hate that it's true
But the world don't treat me like you, na-na, ayy
May '05
We packed up our cases
Smoke fumes replaced with all new faces
Na na-na na
Na na-na na
Lost in my own skin, not like the others
Tired of the questions, "Is she her real mother?"
Na na-na na
Na na-na na
No one know what I know
Why my tears dry
A part of you is a hair from me
But I feel so alone on the inside
The child in me can't get no peace
Mother, I feel just like you
But don't see me in you
The world don't treat me like you, na-na
Mother, I feel just like you
And I hate that it's true
But the world don't treat me like you, na-na, ayy
Mother, I feel just like you
And I hate that it's true
But the world don't treat me like you, na-na, ayy
