Today is the day that I'm gonna tell Just a little 'bout myself All of these haters they don't understand me They can't touch the pain I felt
I wish I could show them all of my secrets And they might see through me But if I tell my secrets or expose my weakness I can let 'em tear through me
Mummy had problems, daddy couldn't solve them Won't stop they just add to her pain Daddy it's okay, I still love you Because you show me love in every way
Mummy I'm sorry for not always caring I got so lost when you weren't around Since I was a young girl I kept us related I don't trust so I won't get let down
So who could be behind my smile I'm crying out and I'm left without a hand
T, no you ain't, you can tell us anything We'll advise you in every way One more thing, for those who don't know we is family We've known each other since we were babies
So I guess it's just another one of them days I got bills to pay, studez to rent Girl problems plus an album due within nine days
Stress to the brain, mumsie's going through so much pain Every time I get paid money to Elaine One more and you'll open you eyes to a blacked out range
Gunshots, knife attacks Seems like I'm living in a life of attacks Government bills, dogdgy deals Leads to another life, crime on wheels
I'm so broke that it's no joke Surrounded by addicts who be on coke If I really wanted to I make money off them Block in the morning on the move by ten
I write them hits in my head Don't need no time for paper and pen I sell my demos in boxes of ten Won't stop me unless you're a dirty bill
It's like yesterday Fifteen hooded up thirteen years olds in Westie Were the bester days can you relate Young black boys from council estates
Rolling around the ends twenty man strong Pour some Hennessey for every man gone I know I ain't sent no letters but still Free hash, free deal, I'm not for much longer
Ever since I was a young and I found it hard to find my way Thats why I don't trust, so I won't get let down
So who could be behind my smile I'm crying out, I'm left without a hand
T, no you ain't, you can tell us anything We'll advise you in every way One more thing, for those who don't know we is family We've known each other since we were babies
Oh, I went from not wanting to live life no more To appreciating every breath I take If it wasn't for the music I probably won't be here That's why I pray to God every day
Dreaming of days when I could just fly away I'm trying to stay strong but after today I'm feeling down So who could be behind my smile I'm crying out, I'm left without a hand
