[intro: vic vega]
Thinking back in my life
Yeah, yeah, yeah. because life's strange, ain't it?
That's strange. so many things that i don't want to remember
Looking back at this, it's hard looking back. yo, yo, yo
[verse 1: vic vega]
I remember coming out from my mother's womb
That was the day when i was born and everything had changed
When i was raised my parents argued every day
Who didn't learn from their mistakes i always hear them in the living room
When is the madness going to stop, i'm always having doubts
My parents fighting, so he threw her on a couch
And still the situation's getting sour
My father put his hands on her, he was a fucking coward, yeah
These memories never go away
Growing up inside a dysfunctional family willing to see a brighter day moving to different kinds of houses that felt so intense
Parents were fighting and we struggling to pay the rent
It feels just like yesterday, my life is moving quick
Sometimes i want to grab a gun i want to end this shit
They spend their time getting drunk and started trouble
Couldn't cope with all the pain, cause on my life i had to struggle
Every day was like a living nightmare how i was raised
My childhood was always filled with misery and pain
Why was i brought up in the first place, hey?
Because i always got treated like shit on all my birthdays
[chorus: vic vega]
Cause life strange and it don't make sense
Growing up to see the pain and it don't make sense
Time goes by so quick and it don't make sense
Cause i was only just a kid and it don't make sense
Cause life's change and it don't make sense
Growing up to see the pain and it don't make sense
Time goes by so quick and it don't make sense
Cause i was only just a kid and it don't make sense
Cause life's strange and it don't make sense
Growing up to see the pain and it don't make sense
Time goes by so quick and it don't make sense
Cause i was only just a kid and it don't make sense
[bridge: vic vega]
Everyday i pray for better days when i'm all alone
Everyday i pray for better days when i'm all alone
Everyday i pray for better days when i'm all alone
Everyday i pray
Everyday i pray
Everyday i pray
Everyday i pray for better days when i'm all alone
Everyday i pray for better days when i'm all alone
Everyday i pray for better days when i'm all alone
Everyday i pray, everyday i pray, everyday i pray
[chorus: vic vega]
A boy meets the world what kind of world am i living in
While growing up? i kinda lost all of my innocence
I've been resented ever since during my youth
Arguments been going on while we're living under the same roof
Fixing the hanger on the telly we was living poor
The house was missing all the time we had to clean the chores
Cause living in the countryside was nothing new to me
The atmosphere was quiet there were not many opportunities
I remember when a low life robbed the house
All the stuff i want was gone no one was there to help
Suddenly everything started to fall apart
We lost everything i know this moment broke my parents heart
We had to move out of the stuff cause time was getting rougher packed up things and we moved back into our grandmothers
Having been there since 12 years old
So us lot hit the gas drove quick and then we hit the road
A new beginning has arrived my cousin disappeared
I haven't seen them ever since, the love was never there
Want to make music said away back
Said to myself "when that time comes, then i will get that payback!"
[chorus: vic vega]
Cuz life's strange and it don't make sense
Growing up to see the pain and it don't make sense
Time goes by so quick and it don't make sense
Cause i was only just a kid and it don't make sense
Cause life's strange and it don't make sense
Growing up to see the pain and it don't make sense
Time goes by so quick and it don't make sense
Cause i was only just a kid and it don't make sense
Cause life's changed and it don't make sense
Growing up to see the pain and it don't make sense
Time goes by so quick and it don't make sense
Cause i was only just a kid and it don't make sense
Cause life's strange and it don't make sense
Growing up to see the pain and it don't make sense
Time goes by so quick and it don't make sense
Cause i was only just a kid and it don't make sense
And it don't make sense and it don't make sense nah and it don't make sense
No no and it don't make sense
It don't make sense
It don't make sense, yeah

Everyday i pray for better days when i'm all alone
Everyday i pray for better days when i'm all alone
Everyday i pray for better days when i'm all alone
Everyday i pray for better days when i'm all alone
[outro: vic vega/lennox's monologue]
Me and my family never had a house of our own and there was no progress in building a relationship. when we was living in my grandmother's home. my father became addicted to drugs and alcohol. so was my mother. my grandmother will soon kick him out of the house because of it
My eldest brother left with him as well, but i despised him. the story doesn't end there
