(When we look back on our lives)
(Will we be satisfied with what we've become?)
(Did we find love?)
(I know we've all been victims of tragedy and diversity)
(But the real question)
(Will we be okay?)
16 when he met the girl
The person who'd be making me
22 he played his job
Supporting his family
Here comes another dream
Had two kids and got married
He said oh God, it's happening
I was five when he moved out
Me and my brothers dead [?]
Now the girl was too stressed out
She took us and moved away
Downtown it seemed like I was
The new kid everyday
I felt like a stray, and so I'd pray
I'd say
Oh my God please help me
I was six when I was first left
On my own
The girl was sick, a baby on the way
So the stepdad had to go
Dropped me off at the apartment
Or watched roomate didnt show [?]
I slept alone, outside on my own
Then there on out I took a vow
Looking out for baby brother and me
Moved back in with him
It was easier to breathe
Next thing you know
I was already turned fifteen
High school flew like a breeze
I'm twenty chasing a dream
And so I said
Oh my God, I'm somebody
Not looking back to the bad
The good times let them roll
Let's make some memories so rad
We'll remember when we're old
And when you look back to your past
Your story won't be untold
It will be like gold
Better as time goes
Life pases you by
It's just like I was five
The other day
Slow or fast
It's weird how time
Slips away
Mom and dad are so proud of how
We turned out in this way
Well I am okay
What else can I say?
But oh my God I survived okay
Oh thank God I'm okay
(Okay, okay, okay)
