In this lifetime I have tried to help you
Why don't you take the help you know you need?
Do you want you and your family to bleed?
You and I know I try to help you through
Yet you sit there and say I never do
I don't understand why you need to feed
On things you want and not what you need
You have more in your mouth than you can chew
because of me you are close to the top
see, now you are happy you took my help
Didn't I tell you to listen to me?
Because of me you never had to stop
No more listening to your family plea
I know I did my best to help you see
