Watch a while

You see he never smiles
5
Broken home
6
Father gone
7
Mama tired
8
So he's all alone
9
Kind of sad
10
Kind of mad
11
Ghetto child
12
Thinkin' he's been had
13
In the back of his mind he's sayin'
14
Didn't have to be here
15
You didn't have to love for me
16
While I was just a nothin' child
17
Why couldn't they just let me be
18
Let me be, let me be, let me be
19
One room shack
20
On the alley-back
21
Control, I'm told
22
From across the track
23
Where is the mayor
24
Who'll make all things fair
25
He lives outside
26
Our polluted air
27
And I didn't have to be here
28
You didn't have to love for me
29
While I was just a nothin' child
30
Why couldn't they just let me be
31
Let me be, let me be, let me be
32
I got a jones
33
Runnin' through ma' bones
34
I'm sorry son
35
All your money's gone
36
Painful rip
37
In my upper hip
38
I guess it's time
39
To take another trip
40
Don't care what nobody say
41
I got to take the pain away
42
It's getting worser day by day
43
And all my life has been this way
44
Can't reason with the pusherman
45
Finance is all that he understands
46
'You junkie, mama cries, you know'
47
Would rip her, but I love her so
48
Love her so, now....
