Goapele - It Takes More Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • He was fourteen years old
  • all his life he never left
  • the west side (oh)
  • I walked past him everyday
  • heading downtown
  • always on the go
  • he was the kind of guy you never gave your real name to
  • so young but still trying to game you
  • But what he was going through
  • I never knew
  • Its such a same
  • how people change
  • and I never really knew his name
  • But it takes more than two to raise a youth
  • and for that we all did lose
  • Because if one of us had noticed you
  • How I wish I was there for you
  • I was busy filling my own shoes
  • All his life
  • he heard"You won't amount to nothing"
  • Low expectations
  • In need of money
  • few too many choices
  • and no patience
  • So what do you know
  • for a good cash flow
  • you can always sell
  • it's easy to fit the role
  • But when your living the fast life
  • he considered all times a go
  • Its such a same
  • how people change
  • and I never really knew his name
  • But it takes more than two to raise a youth
  • and for that we all did lose
  • Because if one of us had noticed you
  • How I wish I was there for you
  • I was busy filling my own shoes
  • Is that how he came around
  • for his child he'll know now
  • 'Cause he left him with bruises
  • his words just abusive
  • The love he didn't show
  • And what his boy was going through
  • He had never imagined
  • But when love turns to hate
  • It's the worse out of passion
  • His son was bold
  • And by then it was too late
  • From his friend they get console
  • Then his hands, his shoes
  • The life or death they couldn't hold
  • Oh- two seconds cold
  • He was fourteen years old
  • Locked up until he's old
  • Its such a same
  • how moments change
  • and I never really knew his name
  • But it takes more than two to raise a youth
  • and for that we all did lose
  • Because if one of us had noticed you
  • How I wish I was there for you
  • I was busy filling my own shoes
