All my life I've been runnin' scared
|
Feelin' shut out, no one cared
|
Not my mother, not my brother
|
Crazy beatings by my father
|
A-ooh a-ooh
|
|
Music's been my saving grace
|
Been my ticket to a better place
|
Brought me riches, brought me fame
|
Many people know my name
|
A-ooh A-ooh
|
|
My old friends who knew me when
|
Say "Brian you've come a long, long way"
|
Thank you, thank you wo wo-o-o-oh
|
|
My cousins say I ain't the same
|
Criticize I change my game
|
They're not happy 'cause I'm different
|
More creative, independent
|
A-ooh A-ooh
|
|
My old friends who knew me when
|
Say "Brian you've come a long, long way"
|
Thank you, thank you
|
Thank you, Thank you
|
|
I've decided to change and grow
|
Taste the new and release the old
|
Those who love me, they know I'm tryin'
|
Livin' brave instead of dyin'
|
A-ooh a-ooh
|
|
I've decided to change and grow
|
Taste the new and release the old
|
Those who love me, they know I'm tryin'
|
Livin' brave instead of dyin'
|
A-ooh a-ooh
|
