The Milk - Picking up the Pieces lyrics

Artist: The Milk

album: Tales from the Thames Delta


I was born on the wrong side of town
A richer man came along just to put me down
But what is that I'll gain - oh
If I'm gonna lie about from where I came
It's so hard to run against the tide
You're gonna get beat up
(Oh my love)
I'm forever beat
Picking up the pieces
All my life
Picking up the pieces
From the ashes I rise
Picking up the pieces
All my life
Picking up the pieces
I'mma gonna rise
Sometimes I hold back
The cold fact that is
The beauty ain't nowhere
It ends where the love begins
The city skies are ablaze
Your lies are sun across
Another mandatory
So Jack, do you pay that dude back
You gotta get payback
(Oh my love)
I'm forever beat
Picking up the pieces
All my life
Picking up the pieces
From the ashes I rise
Picking up the pieces
All my life
Picking up the pieces
I'mma gonna rise
You're lookin at a first born
Here's to good fortune
Getting out the silverspoon
Still worth a fortune
Let me take a moment
When you look me in the eyes
You'll see it
A cross between a lion and defiance
When I been kicked down
I relied on the fire
That keep me on the edge
Like a circus wire
But I still got the net
That I use when a threat
Is coming to get me
Coming to get ya
Listen up homie
Brother I'll wet ya
Cause you're looking at a fighter
I was born on the wrong side of town
(Fighter)
Wrong side of town
(Cause you're looking at a fighter)
I was born on the wrong side of town
(Fighter)
Wrong side of town
It's so hard to run against the tide
You're gonna get beat up
Got to feel fist in your eye
Hard times, they make you feel alive
Better get your mate if I don't survive
I'm forever beat
Picking up the pieces
All my life
Picking up the pieces
From the ashes I rise
Picking up the pieces
All my life
Picking up the pieces
I'mma gonna rise
I was born on the wrong side of town
Wrong side of town
I was born on the wrong side of town
Wrong side of town
I was born on the wrong side of town
Wrong side of town
I was born on the wrong side of town
Wrong side of town
