Taking it down to the pavement... For the ones who lost it all... Listen..." Born in the struggle, l-l-left behind Grandparents raised him, tr-tr-tried to be kind But the mind is a maze when you're tr-tr-trapped inside Ran to the streets with nowhere to h-h-hide Ten years deep and the truth hit cold His mama’s heart? That wasn’t his home She said he broke her, r-r-right from the start A cold-blooded winter in a young boy’s heart Anger burning... ch-ch-chains held tight Teenage years lost in the m-m-middle of the night No one on his side, n-n-no one in view Fighting a war that the world never knew Lost-lost-lost in the pain, he fell so low F-f-family gone and the scars still show But time... time is a healer for the broken soul Now he’s f-f-fighting... fighting to be whole Aunt and Uncle lied, p-p-played him for a fool The system is a game and the g-g-game is cruel Plead guilty to the lies, lost the kids, lost the light Everything he loved vanished in the night Four more years to st-st-stare at the wall Waiting for the spark, waiting for the call In the silence of the cell, he f-f-found the way A brand new start for a b-b-brand new day Lost-lost-lost in the pain, he fell so low F-f-family gone and the scars still show But time... time is a healer for the broken soul Now he’s f-f-fighting... fighting to be whole "Yeah... Mend the heart... Keep it moving... For the city..." IM_Y_IN_ID
