WHAT YA SAY

Grew up too quickly became a man forgot the boy

Left behind those memories that brought him joy

Food on the table and a roof over his head

What ya say, what ya say

What ya say, what ya say

Retreat to hopes and dreams

Celebrate the little things

​​

She fell in love with a gentleman in disguise

Tangled up in a web of his lies

Now she's starting to recognize

What ya say, what ya say

What ya say, what ya say

​

Kicked him out to start anew

Found her strength, found her life

He swore an oath to protect and serve

Lost his life in a gun fight over gang turf wars

His family deserved so much more

What ya say, what ya say

What ya say, what ya say

Took the job, he knew the risk

Can't go back and make it right

​

Pulled aside because the color of her skin

The old man said let me check your bags

While he let all the other people pass

What ya say, what ya say

What ya say, what ya say

She hopes one day he'll see the light

Guess that won't be tonight
