"Uninvited" lyrics
Nu Breed & Jesse Howard Lyrics
Remember when we used to love one another?
Every night we used to pray under covers
My mama loved me, and my daddy too
Life was good and full of gratitude
Then the pills came and the dope came
Alcohol and cocaine, and life hit with crisis
Everyone I love divided, we're fighting and crying
Hope what time we die, and what happened to the love?
All this pain was united, and the pill came
The alcohol and cocaine, life hit with crisis
Everyone I love divided, we're fighting and crying
Over time we're dying, what happened to love?
All this pain was [?]
I was young and I was proud
Surrounded by my people
But then drugs came around
And turned the ones I love to evil
From the steeple to the steps of broken homes
And all this left, and I was just a little boy
Broken heart inside my chest
I won't forgive, I won't forget
Move along and lift my head,
'cause I'm too strong to break or fold
I thank the Lord for my daily bread
I could have given up long ago
But I picked a hard road instead
So tomorrow I dread, but I promise I won't be
Never steal and never cheat
There's still a lot that I regret
I broke the rules a time or two
And said some things I shouldn't have said
But I made this bed I lie in
Not trying to make excuses
I'm exhausted from this running
Sick and tired of feeling useless
Remember when we used to love one another?
Every night we used to pray under covers
Mama loved me, and my daddy too
Life was good and full of gratitude
Then the pills came and the dope came
Alcohol and cocaine, and life hit with crisis
Everyone I love divided, we're fighting and crying
Over time we're dying, what happened to the love?
Then the pills came and the dope came
Alcohol and cocaine, and life hit with crisis
Everyone I love divided, we're fighting and crying
Over time we're dying, what happened to the love?
All this pain was [?]
So please don't cry for me when this life is set and done
I lived my life to the fullest, and this pain can't be undone
Even though it's sun and fight, just like lightning when it comes
With the thunder and the rain, life's a war dropping bombs
And it ain't no place to run when it's destiny involved
Some people gain the world, some people lose it all
And some of us see sunny days, and others see the fog
And some of us get locked away without no one to call
We had our backs against the wall, had our hearts out our chest
Many times we taste the tears, and many years we've been depressed
But we set more than we have to, got to go hard like statues
Don't let them overlook you, 'cause they'll damn sure look past you
And I know this 'cause I lived it, with both eyes I witnessed
At the bottom of the bottom, in the worst of conditions
Talking problem after problem, even caught up in addiction
Seen the innocent convicted, see a sin be forgiven
Remember when we used to love one another?
Every night we used to pray under covers
Mama loved me, and my daddy too
Life was good and full of gratitude
Then the pills came and the dope came
Alcohol and cocaine, and life hit with crisis
Everyone I love divided, we're fighting and crying
Over time we're dying, what happened to the love?
All this pain was [?]
Then the pills came and the dope came
Alcohol and cocaine, and life hit with crisis
Everyone I love divided, we're fighting and crying
Over time we're dying, what happened to the love?
All this pain was [?]
Every night we used to pray under covers
My mama loved me, and my daddy too
Life was good and full of gratitude
Then the pills came and the dope came
Alcohol and cocaine, and life hit with crisis
Everyone I love divided, we're fighting and crying
Hope what time we die, and what happened to the love?
All this pain was united, and the pill came
The alcohol and cocaine, life hit with crisis
Everyone I love divided, we're fighting and crying
Over time we're dying, what happened to love?
