I¡¯m in exile
|
I been livin¡¯ in exile
|
I been hangin¡¯ on the corner, starin¡¯ at the night sky,
|
and watchin¡¯ the cars drive by
|
Their faces stare but they don¡¯t see me as I think about the past an I wonder why,
|
I wonder why
|
A side of life they¡¯ll never see has passed before my jaded eyes
|
I¡¯m on the outside lookin¡¯ in
|
I hold the burning tears inside my heart
|
I been runnin¡¯, I been runnin¡¯ with the hunted, I been runnin¡¯ for my whole life
|
I¡¯m in exile
|
And I got nothin¡¯ but a hope inside, in my heart where hope has died
|
I been livin¡¯ in exile
|
Tears and pain like a stinging rain, have passed before my eyes
|
I¡¯m in exile
|
Forsaken!
|
Forgotten!
|
If you haven¡¯t been there then you¡¯ll never understand
|
I¡¯ve stolen, I¡¯ve lied, I¡¯ve traded my pride,
|
¡®cause I never had a helping hand
|
They¡¯ll steal your innocence and they¡¯ll take away your soul
|
I¡¯ve stolen, I¡¯ve lied and there were times when there wasn¡¯t anyplace to go
|
So let¡¯s go!
|
I been runnin¡¯, I been runnin¡¯ with the hunted,
|
I been runnin¡¯ for my whole life
|
I¡¯m in exile
|
And I got nothin¡¯ but a hope inside,
|
in my heart where hope has died
|
I been livin¡¯ in exile
|
Tears and pain like a stinging rain,
|
have passed before my eyes
|
I¡¯m in exile
|
How many tears have our motherscried?
|
How many of my kind have died?
|
So I stand here to spit in your eye
|
and tell you your society is nothing but lies
|
They¡¯ll look us up and hold us down,
|
just another wasted youth, another dead end town
|
I been waiting so long
|
And now my hope is gone
|
There¡¯s gotta be something more than this
|
There¡¯s gotta be something that I missed
|
I¡¯m in exile
|
I been runnin¡¯, I been runnin¡¯ with the hunted, I been runnin¡¯ for my whole life
|
I¡¯m in exile
|
And I got nothin¡¯ but a hope inside, in my heart where hope has died
|
I been livin¡¯ in exile
|
Tears and pain like a stinging rain, have passed before my eyes
|
I¡¯m in exile
|
How many tears have they torn from my eyes?
|
How many times will we be denied?
|
They lock us up and they hold us down,
|
just another wasted youth, another dead end town
|
I been waiting so long
|
I been waitning now my hope is... gone
