Childhood still sinking

intro]

In this life my heart got broken many times

By the ones so close they cut just like a knife

Can't say much coz I'm the only one they need

Mama chained me to success that's all I see

Sis said short men ain't boys now I understand

Everything looks grey black and white in my hands

Same thing happens every single day

Fight or flight they gave no other way

Mama said real men gotta stand tall

Still I thank her for it all

Life gave me pain but she gave me more

Turned me to a man that's what she's for

Born the last kid guess that's my perk

To that young boy thanks I won't shirk

Days keep passing in the same old trend

Colors fade but the chains won't bend

Same thing happens every single day

Fight or flight they gave no other way

Mama said real men gotta stand tall

Still I thank her for it all

Truly your gift aka dean
