[hometext] => a personal piece
[bodytext] => See it's not easy being me My life at the moment is up and down I got these fakers that are always in my shadow And it's always causing me drama Whenever I want to be on my own Long before today Someone told me Got to be true, to what you want to do And keep your mind alert Cos things change Then jealousy and pain become factors So called friends verbally attacking me Listen even when I'm on the floor Aching all over and feeling sore But even then they still keep on knocking on my door And I got no time to worry But for some reason I sit waiting; wanting more Every day is a test I try hard But I'm struggling with every breath I think of my mum who I left at age seventeen at home All alone I ain't trying to moan You know I don't talk to her much By text or even over the phone In my mind That tears me apart I can't take it Open me up and look at my heart Bet you its beating faster I woke up today thinking why the hell did I leave you and went away Up here people want to stir trouble with me And I bet you're thinking why the hell did you want to stay But mum I do think of you from day to day Do you want to know why? Cos sometimes even I get lonely too On the rare occasions That I do ring you by phone I want to tell you the truth Even though I know I can't make it home I want to tell you things Like you're near me I wonder if you feel me I wonder if you love me From far away Can you hear me It seems to me That sometimes you can't I'm up here doing what I got to do With my friends and family Taking care of them and looking out for them When their feeling down and feeling hurt With their tears hitting the timeless dirt But hold on what about me I get lonely too But I'm a fighter And there is no way I'm going to stop Taking care of my friends and family Even if they are acting funny An always complaining about me Saying I never have time Just shut up and listen Can't you see I got enough stress on my mind I'll take care of you when I can Sorry that I can't help you In your free time span Get over it Haven't got nothing else to say to you Except that I get lonely too I woke up today thinking why the hell did I leave you and went away Up here people want to stir trouble with me And I bet you're thinking why the hell did you want to stay But dad I do think of you from day to day Do you want to know why? Cos sometimes even I get lonely too I sit alone outside smoking Yes you heard me, smoking Without a care Talking out loud to you Like your both really there Got pictures of you both in my mind Can you hear me Your faces are the first ones I want to see When I look up into the skies I want to see you when the moon sets Even in the morning when the sun rises I ask you both for advice In times of trouble In times of despair Do you think of me Cos I think of you It's ever so unfair What can I do now I'm lost without your guidance You both said to me Before we leave this earth We want to see you happy and settled With a wife and kids I still hold on tightly To that one wish Cos you never got to see it fulfilled But look at me now I'm with my fiancée I've got a daughter too Your great granddaughter Everything I'm showing you Is so true I woke up today thinking why the hell did you leave me and went away Down here people want to stir trouble with me And I bet you're thinking don't do anything stupid, just stay But nanny and granddad I think of you from day to day Do you want to know why?
