Some 15 year old kid sits on his porch, just half-past noon
|
Trying to figure out just what he's doing
|
Why he had to grow up so soon
|
With all the gangs, all the guns-watcha gonna learn in school
|
There's got to be some way out of here
|
He says "Man, this life is cruel"
|
|
I knew this Puerto Rican girl who lied to change her life
|
She changed her name
|
Her face because the grass looked greener on the other side
|
She turned her back, she ran away straight into the night
|
Her friends, her family feel the pain, but she's the one who cries
|
|
Tell me what you want
|
Tell me what you need
|
I want everything
|
|
I've had enough of havin' nothing, I won't take just anything
|
I got my mind set on something, all I want is everything
|
It's my life Mr. - I ain't running, I'm no puppet on a string
|
I want more than I see coming
|
All I want is everything
|
All I want is everything
|
|
My next door neighbor Donnie
|
Died in his room just the other day
|
His brother come home
|
Found him dead on the floor with a needle in his vain
|
Cops come down with a body bag
|
They said Donnie was a casually
|
I said, all it's about is the boy checked out
|
He couldn't handle reality
|
|
Tell me what you want
|
Tell me what you need
|
I want everything
|
|
I've had enough of havin' nothing, I won't take just anything
|
I got my mind set on something, all I want is everything
|
It's my life Mr. - I ain't running, I'm no puppet on a string
|
I want more than I see coming
|
All I want is everything
|
All I want is everything
|
