No I have never taken dope
I have never been at the bottom
Never lived on the streets
Never felt real hunger
I have always had a place to call home
I'm so sorry about your scars
I emphasize your suffering of broken heart
I will help you if I can to fix this mess
But don't ever scorn me by my background
Life's hard
I don't wanna make it harder than it is
I'm gonna face it just like it is
(I'm gonna face it and I will overcome)
What the fuck is wrong
Haven't I experienced enough?
You wanna be a tough guy
Well I never will
So is that bitterness, envy
Or just plain arrogance?
Can't hide yourself behind that rough camouflage...
