there was once a boy who lost his way
There's a boy in the streets, acting all rough
Bullying others just to make him look tough
People assumed he's always been cold
It seems there was nothing that could tame his soul

If he had one left, doing all the bad stuff, even being a theft
He's lost count of how many times has went to bed crying
He tried and tried to find peace and at one point he just stop trying

As he lose all hope, hes trust worn thin, hurting others before they can hurt him
A fake smile he puts on while he bleeds, tired and watching others do good deeds
In his heart he's broken but so scared to admit it
Losing everything…bit by bit

He was so small and scared of the world, he din’t know what he was facing
Hes looking for something but doesnt know whats hes searching
He acts all tough with his friend but when there gone
Hes heart hit the floor

And he runs to self-pity till hes ego finds more
There's a boy in the streets, acting all rough
When will he scream “I'VE HAD ENOUGH."
