LEFT BEHIND

This life 

ain’t a treat 

if you trick me into selling my soul 

of a woman in order 

That I survive

I didn’t want to leave you 

I didn’t want to go

Behind was a little girl 

with her mother

I will be back 

I promise

So we can all eat

This life 

ain’t a treat 

if you trick me into selling my soul 

of a woman in order 

That I survive

She needs me

So I’ll be back 

Her mom does *that

I understand the plight 

because it’s known as a cunning delight

Leading many down a swirling staircase

just to hit rock bottom 

Hoping to survive

But it makes ’em feel more alive

I say it again

This life 

ain’t a treat 

if you trick me into selling my soul 

of a woman in order 

That I survive

For freedom, i must go 

I left that girl behind 

but 

I will be back!
