Verse 1:
One day long ago, mama picked me up from school
She said, "Son, won't you tell me what's bothering you"
I said, "No, mama no, won't you leave me be."
She said, "Son, you know better than to lie to me."
Did they hurt you boy, no no no no
Did they curse you boy, no no no no
Did they mock you boy, no no no
Chorus:
What's there problem then
Well mom it's gotta be my....
Affliction
Verse 2:
Lets rewind the clock maybe 8 months ago
When the tracks of my tears were beggin' for snow
My angel oh my angel what are you doing this for
She said I don't know baby I don't love you know more
It's the way you dress, oh why oh why
It's the way you dance, oh why oh why
It's the way you move oh why oh why
Chorus:
Does it matter so much
Well it's gotta be my
Affliction
Verse 3:
The devil he once told me you must stop this message son
I said didn't you hear Sammy babe a change gonna come
Now I will be the message my people need you see
And I will give my broken brothers sanctuary
But they will hurt you boy, I know I know
They'll condemn you boy, I know I know
They may kill you boy, I know I know
Chorus:
I've gotta Beat it though
Whoa I've gotta beat my
