Lyrics

I was born out in a borough I was born inside a void I was looking out for something, man, that couldn't be destroyed Running through the city with somebody else's sins Well, all I really wanted was just somewhere to begin Well they stab you in the back and they wanna see you crack And they say you'll go to heaven in a brand new Cadillac They wanna see you hurt, and they treat you just like dirt And you soon find out that life is just a four-letter word I was dealing with a feeling like a poor boy on the line I was 16 years old in an A state of mind I was hanging out at Playland with some kids from Ozone Park Playing computer games and learned to kill like a shark Well they stab you in the back and they wanna see you crack And they say you'll go to heaven in a brand new Cadillac They're giving you a script and they wanna see you trip But you spit the poison out cause you're sick of being sick Hey, tell me what do want Tell me what do you want from me Hey, tell me what do want Tell me what do you want from me Well I made an appointment cause I needed some advice But the doctor and the dealer, man, were charging the same price They say they want my body but they can't touch my soul I am gonna keep my distance, man, and play some rock and roll But they stab you in the back and they want to see you crack And they say you'll go to heaven in a brand new Cadillac They tell you it's a sin and they want to stick it in But all you ever wanted was just some where to begin Hey, tell me what do you want Tell me what do you want from me Hey, tell me what do you want Tell me what do you want from me I've seen some roll over Some just grow colder And turn to stone And I, I won't be broken I won't be stolen I'll let it roll
