MmmAaaAaa aaa aaa, aaa aaa aaa |
|
Aaa aaaShe was wearin' shockin' pink and jewelry of gold |
|
Papa said, "Son, isn't she fine?"(Bye) |
|
Knew he would be out all night |
|
Though son is only nine years old |
|
This is how he's forced to spend his time |
|
Lookin' out his window into someone else's home |
|
Watchin' mother, father, child at play(Play) |
|
Wishin' he could be a part |
|
But it's too hard to forget, he's alone |
|
Ooh ooh, a typical day, yea yea yea, yaa |
|
The boy wait out at the window, one more forgotten son |
|
Ahh, lookin' to the corner, to see what he'll become |
|
The boy wait out at the window, if he's still sittin' there(Still sittin' there) |
|
Are you even gonna care? |
|
Papa always tells his son, "Keep sittin' at our windowDon't end up like me, watch from above, you can't go wrong" |
|
More and more son's thinking, "Won't be too far but I must go in his eye"(Eye) |
|
The corner is the only place he can belong(Ohh) |
|
Son is smart enough to see it, won't make him somebody |
|
But it's better than livin' with the hypocrisies above |
|
No more smellin' ho's and liquor on the breath of daddy |
|
Rather smell it on, the breath of brothers he don't know or love |
|
The boy wait out at the window, one more forgotten son |
|
Ahh, lookin' to the corner, to see what he'll become |
|
The boy wait out at the window, if he's still sittin' there(Still sittin' there) |
|
Are you even gonna care? |
|
Remember when the boy was young and untouched(Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh) |
|
Happy with his window view, but look it's not enough(His dreams) |
|
His dreams are in the gutter and now he's just a number(It's the) |
|
All because he wanted to belong all(All) |
|
Oh baby, do it |
|
Wanted to belong, ohh ohh |
|
So he learned to play the role of hustler with no feelings |
|
Thinking, they'll accept me if |
|
I prove that |
|
I'm real hard |
|
Now he's learnin' firsthand of the word and it's true meanin' |
|
The window he looks out of now includes what iron bars |
|
The boy wait out at the window, one more forgotten son |
|
Ahh, he looked to the corner and look what he's become |
|
The boy wait out at the window, if he's still sittin' there(Still sittin' there) |
|
Are you even gonna care? |
