Feelin' shut out, no one cared
Not my mother, not my brother
Crazy beatings by my father
A-ooh a-ooh
Music's been my saving grace
Been my ticket to a better place
Brought me riches, brought me fame
Many people know my name
A-ooh a-ooh
My old friends who knew me when
Say "brian you've come a long, long way"
Thank you, thank you wo wo-o-o-oh
My cousins say I ain't the same
Criticize I change my game
They're not happy 'cause I'm different
More creative, independent
A-ooh a-ooh
My old friends who knew me when
Say "brian you've come a long, long way"
Thank you, thank you
Thank you, thank you
I've decided to change and grow
Taste the new and release the old
Those who love me, they know I'm tryin'
Livin' brave instead of dyin'
A-ooh a-ooh
I've decided to change and grow
Taste the new and release the old
Those who love me, they know I'm tryin'
Livin' brave instead of dyin'
A-ooh a-ooh
All my life I've been runnin' scared Feelin' shut out, no one cared Not my mother, not my brother Crazy beatings by my father A-ooh a-ooh Music's been my saving grace Been my ticket to a better place Brought me riches, brought me fame Many people know my name A-ooh a-ooh My old friends who knew me when Say "brian you've come a long, long way" Thank you, thank you wo wo-o-o-oh My cousins say I ain't the same Criticize I change my game They're not happy 'cause I'm different More creative, independent A-ooh a-ooh My old friends who knew me when Say "brian you've come a long, long way" Thank you, thank you Thank you, thank you I've decided to change and grow Taste the new and release the old Those who love me, they know I'm tryin' Livin' brave instead of dyin' A-ooh a-ooh I've decided to change and grow Taste the new and release the old Those who love me, they know I'm tryin' Livin' brave instead of dyin' A-ooh a-ooh Explain Request ×
