THE DAY

STILL YOUR GOLDEN BOY

WALKING THE BLOCK

TALK

TO THE BEACH
TAKE ME TO A PLACE
INSIDE
THAT IS SO HARD TO
REACH

INSIDE YOUR HAND

WHEN YOU LOOK BACK
AT YOUR WASTED LIFE
AND YOU DON'T SEE ME
I WAS TEN YEARS OLD
DOING ALL THAT I COULD
IT WASN'T EASY FOR ME
TO BE A SCARED
WHITE BOY IN A BLACK
NEIGHBORHOOD
SOMETIMES YOU WOULD
SEND ME
A BIRTHDAY CARD
WITH A FIVE DOLLAR BILL
