lyrics

Born in Chicago, the heavy boy stands
A blue shirt on his chest, and a blue pair of pants
A smile on his face, with the skyline in the back
Bullied for his weight, man, isn’t that wack?
Happiness shows on the outside
Anger dwells very deep inside
Sadness as well
“Hey, fatty!” they would all yell
Frustration and depression lingers in his heart
Seven years old and he’d rather restart
Looking down, with a smile, as he’d stroll away
Letting the pain build up in the worst way
Continuing his day with a pseudo smile anyway
Yet years went on, and emotions ran deep
The anger built up, man, he felt it in his sleep
Sleepless nights with his mind left racing,
Insomnia intact with his feet left pacing
“How do I deal with this?”
“How do I live with this crap?”
Really unsure on how to truly react
Seventeen years old and the bullying’s gone down
Despite the decrease, it still hangs around
The anger and depression leads to a seldom frown
Fourteen years old, now he’s glad that he left that town
