Hmm, yeah, ayy-ayy-ayy
Hmm, na-na-na-na-na, eh-eh

Today I want to confess, confess my sins
I want to tell my story, that no one has been told
When I was seven years old, mom and dad separated
There were few good moments
And there were many bad moments
I never had toys, Santa Claus never gave me gifts
I only had a stringless guitar, and a stick microphone
I learned from false friends, I learned to ignore the ungrateful
But I always walked with my feet on the ground because I had no shoes

I had to suffer in this life
Cry when I had no tears
But I always knew that my luck would come
The kid from the neighborhood, the living legend

When there was no bread for breakfast, I settled
When there was no car, I walked
Before I felt like the owner of everything
Now I'm the same fool with money and fame
Now those who didn't look at me yesterday look at me
Now the same ones who ignored me throw me
Before I lost, I never won
And now in this game I am the missing piece
But my father takes care of me from above
And he guides me on the right path
And I only ask him to give me health, and blessings for my family

Eh-eh-eh
Eh-eh-eh
Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh
Eh-eh-oh
Eh-eh

Now I have people who hate me
Now I have people who love me
They say that men like me, are not forgotten or die

I had to suffer in this life
Cry when I had no tears
But I always knew that my luck would come
The kid from the neighborhood, the living legend
