Vilified

I thought you wanted to be my friend, I thought you wanted to be my
When I see your face for real, I stop, and then I clear my throat
When I try to talk again, I can't, and in a flash you're gone
When I wish upon a star, I get a good, good view
I'm outside in your backyard, watching everything you do
I'm just a man, that's all I am, but I can take it just like any other can
I've been down with the criminal-minded, oops rewind it, I gotta go back now
When I was known as the TV kid, sometimes I hid and looked out my back porch
Never saw nothin' not worth nuttin' up in the old days
It took me a little while to realize the error of my old ways
Clean and narrow is the sparrow that never flies straight
I'm earning my wings and feathers but I don't have it all together yet
And I can't get through this pain, that's why I'm hawking you
Can't get through this pain, that's why I'm stalking you
And I can take it just like any other can

I'm just a man, that's all I am, and I can take it just like any other can
I learned to hate the public, I love it, no one talks to me, like I'm above it, so shove it
I was the bandit, el bandito, kinda the fly one, I tried to find a job before this, but I couldn't find one
So I took it upon myself to think and be a changed man
Reaping what I sow and treating my cancer with a firm hand
Try walking over me now, see if I don't snatch you and catch you up
In the web that has more bridges than that book you read

And I can't get through this pain, that's why I'm hawking you
Can't get through this pain, that's why I'm stalking you
And I can take it just like any other can
I can see her, punk better grow up
Wasting my time, you better not show up
In the bushes, tomorrow night
The button she pushes, but that shit ain't right!

I'm vilified
