    Lyrics
    It’s been a long time here
    In twenty days it will be twenty years
    I have no fear
    Except for life I wonder, why I’m here

    Give me a chance and I’ll tell you the story
    Of how it used to be in the better days
    I used to think that life was worth living
    But now I thinking there is a better way

    I was walking around
    Not overstepping my bounds
    When you walked my way
    With no smile on my face
    Just a poetic grace
    Won’t you please make my day

    I’m not like them
    I just need a friend
    Quick pill for poverty
    I hate it too
    Don’t you know it’s the last
    Thing that I wanna do

    You’re blessed with an imperfect family
    To this day mines still a mystery
    Nails clicking keeping me company, now would you agree
    Society crafts our destiny

    Treat me like a man
    Inside I know that you can
    You bleed you love just like me
    Gun in hand I paid my dues
    Didn’t end up like you
    Who said that’s where I want to be

    I’m not like them
    I just need a friend
    Quick pill for poverty

    I’ll say it again
    I hate it too
    Don’t you know it’s the last
    Thing that I wanna do

    (Bridge)

    Outcast out on my own tonight
    No tax, no car, no job, no rights
    Long ago the man mapped out my life
    Sure looked good to me
    Now I’m doing what I can despite
    The life sucked out of me

    (SOLO)

    It’s been a long time here
    Nothing has changed, your comforts, my tear
    I’ll survive in your fear
    I’ll get by with another beer
