Pretty smiles

Deceiving laughs

And people who sleep with their eyes open

Lonely children

Un answered cries

And souls who have given up hoping

The other things that breaks hearts

Are fairy tales that never come true

And selfish people who lie to me

Selfish people just like you.

Tell mama

A man is made of many things

None of which can be seen at a glance

Even a rose can grow from a concrete floor

If watered and given a chance

When judging a man first take into account

The conditions from which he his prevailed

His ability to keep the faith

Not just in victory, but when he fails

Tell mama please don’t worry

There’s no need 4 caution here

4 I was born a honourable man

So there’s nothing 4 her 2 fear

Never judge a book by its cover

I’m sure you’ve heard that b4

And what would life be like 4 us

If we all 2 scared 2 explore

So dare 2 do what no one has

Get to know me b4 u judge me

9 times out o 10, well become friends

And in time maybe u 2 will love me
