Lyrics:
And I'm on the streets again
I disobeyed another warning
I should've been in by ten
Now I won't get out until Sunday
I'll have to say I stayed with
Starin' at a blank canvas
Thinkin' about what should I write, should I plan this?
Reminiscing 18, a freshman on campus
With dreams so big, nobody
dropped to lukewarm
Now we back up in the spot, claimin' never been gone
Niggas who cut us off, wanna re-attach us now
Them girls who brushed us off, say
judgement reserved?
Does 'innocent till proven guilty' have any meaning at all
When you're alone in a police house surrounded by cops
being kicked around like
the good you have
Ain't it a shame that you took advantage of me
And you should not be mad
I don't want the job no more
See you hurting me
I knew every laneway
In Ontario
But it's not what you're sure of
It's what you don't know
It should have been filled with
The usual ones
dropped to lukewarm
Now we back up in the spot, claimin' never been gone
Niggas who cut us off, wanna re-attach us now
Them girls who brushed us off, say
heresies go read it
Justified by faith
I say we ain't pointing to faith
Hollering grace, you can bank on they gone
Say what we say sola fide
Functionally
don't have the patience
But I've wished for so long
For someone to come and show me
Lead by example
'Cause I've been waiting
I've tried every age
I'm so
Disobeyed another warning, shoulda been home by ten
Now I stay out 'til Sunday, I have to say I stayed with friends
It's a habit worth forming, it's a means
It's taken me some time to read the writing on the wall
But I have finally figured out just what's been going on
And I need to tell you what I've
struggle
That inspires men to stand up for their rights
And should we fall down by the wayside in this ever-changing world
We can look back to these
have been mine,
Now she's gone and she's wed another.
All men in yon forest they asked of me,
"How many strawberries grow in the salt sea?"
And I
away
294 said the highway sign
I should be home by now, home just in time
To lay her down to sleep
And pray the Lord her soul to keep
'Cause I
that he who has been successful
Should look out of for his fellow man, his brother
I feel that's my role, that's my job
I know when I was a kid
You
In an old city bar
That's never too far
From the places that gather
The dreams that have been
In the safety of night
With it's old neon light
Tony don't call no more
Don't have it on more
Maybe there is something wrong with his phone
Maybe it's mornin' and the thrill is gone
And I'm
am I ahead of ya
It just as easily could'a been me instead of ya
We gone fight till we can't fight no more
You can't fight no more
You gone lie down
A grand blank look on your face
When you learned it was over
Do you ever question why
What could have been different
We were so comfortable
everything it should have been, when a woman's fighting loneliness it's a battle she can't win. I'll always remember what she did and what she said but the one
it right back down inside
Weeks have gone by and they're becoming friends
She's single too and now it all depends
Bill's next move could be his last
to depart
Saying, "Skimble, where is Skimble has he gone to hunt the thimble
We must find him or the train can't start"
All the guards and all the porters
game
And she found herself all alone
Alone and afraid and left unprotected
'Cause he was all that she had
Maybe I should have
But I never told
And the money kept rolling in from every side
Eva's pretty hands reached out and they reached wide
Now you may feel it should have been a voluntary
