mother says sing me a happy song
say I can’t ma
I been here for too long
my brain is tired
got a dream, some hope
and a pocket full of dope
got a dream and some hope and
no place to go
I suppose I’m wasting all my time
stuck on a rhyme
that makes sense to no one but me
please ma, tell me I’m not crazy
and tell me you don’t believe
say you don’t say
I’m just one son gone
who never was around
got his head in the clouds
think’s he’s gods son
singing songs for everyone
this one’s for you but it’s
mostly for me
just want to see what I can do
and dad says son don’t be like me
get an education
be somebody, something I could never be
but you don’t understand it’s not for me
there are things I could never be
and tell me you don’t believe
say you don’t say
I’m just one son gone
who never was around
got his head in the clouds
think’s he’s gods son
singing songs for everyone
this one’s for you but it’s
mostly for me
just want to see what I can do
and mother says
sing me a happy song
give me a chance ma
give me a chance
it will all come to me
