Staring in my rear view wondering how I made it out Took the road less travelled, giving thanks to the gravel that got me here I couldn't shed no tears through the pain and the suffering, why bother now? Didn't waste my time on it, it's just tears gone bad Mama working long hours round the clock, just tryna make it work Daddy had a choice between us and the bottle and we ended up packing our bags Now we tryna reach out, don't need a grown man struggling, don't bother now Didn't make me drown, poppa, just tears gone bad There was times I was lost and no one looking for me I been caught by the law, threw that book at me Lord must have an angel watching over me Wouldn't let me drown in 'em, tears gone bad There was times I was lost and no one looking for me Told me I couldn't fly with these broken wings Just look at me, tears don't last Now look at me, here at last
