Brown Jackson Lyrics & Chords By Sgr
They say I'm flesh and blood on the inside
Guts and bones
But i feel I'm steel
They say my mind is mush on the inside
Broken plans
And bad ideas
Oh but I feel there's so much more than that
I'm not a chemical in a vat
To test and use
My mind is calling to a higher path
A journey that occurred to me
Isn't mine to choose
And everyday I learn there's someone
New who wants another piece of me
And everywhere I turn there's someone
New who wants some of my time
And everywhere I go there's someone
New who wants to take a shot at me
And everytime I slip that's another trick
That I gotta learn
Even though I've cut my teeth in the trenches
I stood in line
I've paid my dues
I can't say I'm workin much on my pension
But I've done my time
And I've read the news
And you know how they go
But oh Lord I ain't been given time enough
To suffer for the things I want
That I don't have
Yeah I know there's deeper meaning
To my life
Then to die on someone's production line
A troubled man
And everyday I learn there's someone
New who wants another piece of me
And everywhere I turn there's someone
New who wants some of my time
And everywhere I go there's someone
New who wants to take a shot at me
And everytime I slip that's another trick
That I gotta learn
Uh huh
Oh yeah
Oh no
Uh huh
Oh yeah
So much more that I gotta learn...
And everyday I learn there's someone
New who wants another piece of me
And everywhere I turn there's someone
New who wants some of my time
And everywhere I go there's someone
New who wants to take a shot at me
And everytime I slip that's another trick
That I gotta learn
Whoah oh
Whoah oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
