Gangster
[Verse 1]
It's not the way that you won't listen
Or the way you comb your hair
It is the fact that you are missing
How I feel when you're not there
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I went through all the months of January
Locked up in this cell
I'd like to be at home
But on my own I didn't do too well
[Chorus]
Look at me, I always get the blame
When I can't even learn to spell my name
I'd like to read, I'd like to write
But where I live, I learned to fight
So don't you ever say that we're the same
[Verse 2]
I don't need a doctor
Telling me I'm full of juice
It's not a statement that I'm making
But the plain and simple truth
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I went through all the months of January
Locked up in my cell
I'd like to think of home
When I'm alone, it doesn't work too well
[Chorus]
Look at me, I always get the blame
When I can't even learn to spell my name
I'd like to read, I'd like to write
But where I live, I learned to fight
So don't you ever say that we're the same
It's not the way that you won't listen
Or the way you comb your hair
It is the fact that you are missing
How I feel when you're not there
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I went through all the months of January
Locked up in this cell
I'd like to be at home
But on my own I didn't do too well
[Chorus]
Look at me, I always get the blame
When I can't even learn to spell my name
I'd like to read, I'd like to write
But where I live, I learned to fight
So don't you ever say that we're the same
[Verse 2]
I don't need a doctor
Telling me I'm full of juice
It's not a statement that I'm making
But the plain and simple truth
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I went through all the months of January
Locked up in my cell
I'd like to think of home
When I'm alone, it doesn't work too well
[Chorus]
Look at me, I always get the blame
When I can't even learn to spell my name
I'd like to read, I'd like to write
But where I live, I learned to fight
So don't you ever say that we're the same
