You tell me you got treated like dirt
The unwanted son Not needed at all
You blame your misery on your past
Born into a life Surrounded by crime

The cause was your life Crime the effect

Some were born to lose
Others found their way out
Try even if you doubt
Just look where you are at now
And where you can be if you only try!
