All I Want Is Everything
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Some 15 year old kid sits on his porch,
just half-past noon
triying to figure out just what he's doing
Why he had to grow up so soon
with all the gangs, all the guns
whatcha gonna learn in school
ThereÂs got to be some way out of here,
he says: "Man, this life is cruel"
I knew this Puerto Rican girl
who lied to change her life
She changed her name,her face
because the grass looked
greener on the other side
She turned her back, she ran away
straight into the night
Her friends, her family feel the pain,
but she's the one who cries
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you need
I want everything
I've had enough of havin nothing,
I wont take just anything
I got my mind set on something,
All I want is everything
It's my life Mr.
I ain't running,
I'm no puppet on a string
I want more than I see coming
All I want is everything
All I want is everything
Save a prayer for Donnie,
He died in his room just the other day
His brother come home,
found him dead on the floor
with a needle in his vein
Cops came down with a body bag,
they said Donnie was a casualty
I said, All it's about is the boy checked out,
he couldn't handle reality
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you need
I want everything
I'v had enough of havin' nothing,
I won't take just anything
I got my mind set on something,
All I want is everything
It's my life Mr.
I ain't running
I'm no puppet on a string
I want more than I see coming
All I want is everything
All I want is everything
