Alien Renegade (Remastered)

[verse1] Way back in time Where it all began He had been tossed aside To survive any way he can [verse2] Living on the street Eating rotting food Occasionally getting water But nothing would improve [Bridge] It was time to go The gangs on a killing spree He was almost shot down That's when he began to flee [Chorus] Roads long and hard People along the way Some would help him Others just looked away He was just an alien Workers stock and trade He would never amount to anything But becoming a renegade [verse3] He crossed the border in the night He was only 12 The things that were ahead of him Were not that far from hell [verse4] Eventually time moved on He was working in a field Things have gotten better He allowed himself to feel [Bridge] Love is an amazing beginning Of the family he would have Three children now among the living It was more than he hoped for [Chorus] Roads long and hard People along the way Some would help him Others just looked away He was just an alien He was mastering his trade He was now amounting to something Still becoming a renegade [verse5] The years went by in the steady But eventually change came A New World order beginning Nothing would be the same [verse6] Now accused of darkness And unspeakable crimes It didn't matter that he was innocent He wasn't one of their kind [Bridge] Transported in shackles To places he did not know Now in an internment camp It was part of the show [Chorus] Roads long and hard People leading him astray No one could help him They just looked away He was just an alien Prisoner stock and trade He had lost everything He had become the renegade [verse7] Their abuses were plentiful Sticks and stones and broken bones They called him pitiful They said he was going home [verse8] Weeks turned into months Months turned into a year He had lost all his hope He had given into fear [verse9] The fights had taken over It was all they did now Locked in a cage in a warehouse Drawing a large crowd [verse10] Bets were taken and given The fights were really rough Some of them never got back up Others got really tough [Bridge] One more win and he would eat today But the fight was brutal And It did not go his way [Chorus] Roads up ahead People along the way Some would help him Others would just look away He was just an illegal People stock to trade If he had learned anything It was to be an alien renegade [Outro] A body now broken Thrown out like the trash But he was still breathing He was free at last He could not go home Now standing all alone He would help others For that he will be known
