He was a boy
And his daddy told him
Lay down son
We're not gonna make it
Dream what you want
Take what you need
Hold on tight son
Its almost the end

Stripped of all his pain
Shoved into the world
Trying to make it
All he wants is his blanket
All he wants is more

Flying high
Like a feather in the sky
High and mighty in the world
Loving life
Real secure
But never forgetting he was once poor

Stripped of all his pain
Shoved into the world
Trying to make it
All he wants is his blanket
All he wants is more

Never forgetting who he once was
He's in this world with a real cause
