| I used to cry...when I was sittin' all alone gettin' so, so high...when I was sittin' all alone watchin' life go by...when I was sittin' all alone wishin' I would die...when I was sittin' all alone
Little did I know that I was already dead because little did I know how quick that demon would spread "Dead man walkin', y'all!", yeah that's what I said for I was dead inside my heart...I was dead inside my head
I used to know this little boy who died so long ago He had a smile a mile wide that showed a happy glow I'd see him every day, every day I'd watch him grow Basketball in the sunshine and football in the snow
I used to walk him home after each and every game Daytime, night time, it was always the same until one day I couldn't find him, and I was calling out his name That's the day he disappeared... as the darkness came
Years and years went by, tears and tears went by and every time I'd see his mama she would look me in the eye She never blamed me, but she would always ask me why and I never had an answer for every tear she would cry
One day I was on the sidewalk jumpin' over each crack and I saw that little boy on the right side of the track He said he saw white lights before he fell into black and he said he talked to God, and God brought him back
God gave him another chance, another chance to atone and he asked God to hold his hand because he couldn't do it on his own He said he was saved by the love and the mercy he was shown I used to cry...when I was sittin' all alone |

| Awesome work. Love the story line and the life you put into this one.
