Storyteller

Let me tell you all a story bout this kid
He used to wake up and before he'd yawn he'd already been sick
He hadn't ate nothing for days, his arms are looking like a twig
How can he look after himself when this kid is only 6?
Even though he's 6, he suffers with deep depression
Coz all his mother wants to do is use him as a weapon
To try and get his father back in the yard but he ain't stepping
Back in the yard unless he's going round here for sex and
And that's the way the world is
That's the way the worlds moving
Parents split up and that's another kid losing
The chance to have two parents, who aren't gonna abuse him
AND A MOMENT TO HIMSELF WHERE HE DON'T HAVE TO FEEL USELESS
MOMENT TO HIMSELF WHERE HE DON'T HAVE TO FEEL STUPID
MOMENT TO HIMSELF WHERE HE DON'T HAVE TO FEEL CLUELESS
Not knowing what's going on, he's not crying he's going strong, he's Looking at his mummy asking 'why does daddy do this?'
But she tells him to shut up and get upstairs to his room
Doesn't wanna go but he's walking upstairs with his shoes
Thinking bout his bike in the garden that barely gets used
Mothers coming up the stairs he's gotta bare the next bruise
Blames him for what his father did to her in the past
Coz when she looks at her little boy all she sees is his dad
The one that left her on her arse, and left her wheezing for cash
She can't pull it together she can't find a (chokes up)
Stressing out to death and now she got a reason for crack
She left her son all on his own and he's just needing her back
She's smoking on a heavy pipe and now she's feeling the cat
She's feeling like she's in the trap but she ain't been in the trap
She's reminiscing on all the things that she's seen in the past
She's thinking back on all the times when there was green in the grass
She's only had one sip
But if she had one wish
Then she'd be going back 10 years to her senior class
Nah
Poor little kid, nah he don't wanna see his mummy cry
He can see the pain when he's looking into his mummy's eyes
Young boy and already he's sick of hearing mummy's lies
The kid is supposed to be mixed race but he looks fully white
When he goes to school he don't call it school, it's bully time
Off the bully when he goes to school he has to stomach five
If he don't cry for one day, then it's lucky time
He tells the teacher but they laugh at him and say he's full of shite
Young boy living in this world he can't win
Sitting on this roundabout but it can't spin
Every-time he cries nobody hears a thing
And now he's feeling like it's the whole world against him
He get's back from school, his mother's laying on the bed
Box of tablets at the side of her, she looks like a mess
Confused he walks over to his mothers bed
And yeah he shakes her up but little do he know his mother's dead
Yeah he's shaking mummy up, but he ain't waking mummy up
She's all yours the mighty lord has already taken mummy up
Prays forgiveness for all the mistakes that his mummy's done
Laying dead and now she can't even make it up to her son!
Yeah he's shaking mummy up, but he ain't waking mummy up
She's all yours the mighty lord has already taken mummy up
Prays forgiveness for all the mistakes that his mummy done
Laying dead and now she can't even make it up to her son!
He just wants his mummy back. She ain't never coming back
He wants his mother to come back and tell him that's he's full of crap
Wants his mummy to tell him to feed the dog and feed the cat
Only four words he's got for his mum is I NEED YOU BACK!
He just wants his mummy back but she ain't never coming back
