The Never Haves
guitar chords lyrics
I've been laughed at, ridiculed and mocked
I've been chased around the block, just to get tackled and socked
I've been kicked out of my home, and then they changed the locks
Telling me to go away whenever I came and knocked
I've been force-fed pills to try and kill my ills
I've been shut off, because I couldn't pay my bills
I haven't eaten for a week, cause I was waiting for my payday
I've been called an "Uncle Tom" and "nigger" on the same day
I've been divorced and had to fight for joint custody
I've disappointed my new wife and had to rebuild her trust in me
I've been enraged when someone rattled my cage
I've been called a "wack emcee", and I've been booed off stage
My father was two things: absent and biological
Kids are scared of me, cause of my overactive follicles
When I think of what I've been through, feeling dejected
My father was two things: absent and biological
Kids are scared of me, cause of my overactive follicles
When I think of what I've been through, feeling dejected
It's the never haves that flipped my perspective
Never have I been so anguished I literally sweat blood
Never have my friends slept while I wept
Never have I seen a smiling friend and accepted his kiss
Only to be surrounded and pounded with clubs and fists
Never been interrogated by those who hated me violently
They claim that I'm an enemy of God--oh, the irony!
Or stood quietly under slaps and spit
Cause the purveyors of piety find my blasphemous
Never had a friend that I considered my rock
That denied me three times before the crow of the cock
Never stood before a crowd who was unanimous
And wanted to crucify me instead released Barrabas
Never had a crown of thorns jammed in my brow
Stripped naked while my captors mockingly bow
Never been between two thieves nailed to a tree
Crying, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken Me?"
And I never will
You did it so I never will
Father, thank You for Your grace so I'll never have to taste of death, because You stood in my place
I never will
