Select language to translate this lyric
Holding your neck while the Fuzz and the Feds
Are detaining your grandson for drugs
Who would have thought that man heâd become
Would look just like the grandfathers son
Some would suggest that the past is the past
And that wisdom exonerates youth
But who would have thought that the shit you got into
Could find its way back under your roof
Iâve seen the system, Darling
Iâve fed this hungry machine
I want my family, Darling
Not to see the things that Iâve seen
I want the unprotected
I want to see what I dream
I want the inconvenience
I hope you see that
When you find that love isnât what you thought
Donât lose hope, donât lose heart
I fell much faster, but she fell much further
Inevitably breaking her heart
Haunted by memories that she cannot shake
But her ghost has not darkened my door
Darling, I pray that my heart soon would change
If Iâm failing to see what you are
All I have I would give
If for a second just to hold you
I pray, My Love, you forgive
Any time I didnât hold you close
When you find yourself lying there alone
Donât forget what a dream you are
