I been bruised  I been used  I been beaten black and blue,<br />
And I, assumed that I'd been the fool,<br />
And it's made me mean  made me cruel,<br />
Made me just the same as you  did things I shouldn't do,<br />
Done things to make it through  while making up excuses to,<br />
Just get ahead  get along  get some more  get some fun,<br />
Gettin' scared of gettin' none  while lookn' after number one,<br />
I gotta get ahead or get none  gotta get it all and then some,<br />
Gotta look how far I come  lived so fast  died so young.<br />
I'm chokin' - This smoke- has got so thick that I can't cope,<br />
And it's so bad I'm almost broke  and I gone way beyond all hope,<br />
And I can't breath  I can't see  can't be too good for me,<br />
And I can't seem to find my feet  now  somebody help me please.<br />
Show me the sunshine.<br />
I want to see the blue sky,<br />
Show me the sunshine.<br />
I want to see the blue sky,<br />
Show me the sunshine.<br />
I want to see the blue sky  come back to me,<br />
Show me the sunshine.<br />
I want to see the blue sky  come back to me,<br />
Show me the sunshine.
