Nobody Knows Songtext
von Lissa Schneckenburger
Nobody Knows Songtext
I went through, 8 different schools in, 12 different years
That′s 30 different teachers, over ten thousand different peers
I fought in everyone, was suspended every time
Besides a few a felony, I committed every crime
But I'm not bragging on, just want you to see me what I′ve done
Never proud of it, I don't have to go back there again
Cause now I know
Nobody told me that the road would be easy
I don't believe, I′ve made it this far
My whole life, man I′ve been working so hard and I know
I used to go house to house
Sleeping on couch to couch
Walking around sticking out my hands, looking for a handout
Only thing handed out was more bills
Only thing pulled me out was my will
God told me the sun don't chill
Determined to make use of one of these skills
Either that or go beat the block
Ain′t no way you can beat the cops
Ain't no way I can beat the clock
Just a matter of time shut down your shop
You stay up day and nights, living this way of life
I was +Young and Restless+
+All My Children came and then I had a +Guiding Light+
No more of that sitting man sitting and waiting
And thinking somebody coming to take me up off them streets
But now I know
Nobody told me that the road would be easy
I don′t believe, I've made it this far
My whole life, man I′ve been working so hard and I know
Now we all hear complaining, "I got work to do"
How bad you think you got it, somebody else got it worse than you
I've had them down and ups, don't plan on coming back down
Don′t plan on leaving here no time soon, but I got too comfortable now
Wouldn′t have no knowledge of wealth, without no knowledge of self
I'll keep walking this road - my mind, body and soul- I know
Nobody told me that the road would be easy
I don′t believe, I've made it this far
My whole life, man I′ve been working so hard and I know
Nobody told me that the road would be easy
I don't believe, I′ve made it this far
My whole life, man I've been working so hard and I know
Mmmm
