You Raised Me - Giggs

You worked hard when we needed to get through

To make sure we had meals and to get juice

To buy us all the new clothes and the best shoes

That you could afford although it would stress you

You took a load of my cheek then beat me all over the weekend

I didn’t know couldn’t see then, you teachin' me and my bro’s how to be men

Even if you got paid in the worst way, you made sure I had cake on my birthday

It wasn’t even for your sake

I bet you never got to sleep at your work rate

Dropped me to my first rave told me it weren’t safe with a hurt face

So I came in early it was Thursday

You know mum’s always think of the worse case

I try my best to help out mum you raised me

I know you’re feeling stressed out and I blame me

I could be good but it ain’t me

I think the hood kinda changed me

I try my best to help out mum you raised me

I know you’re feeling stressed out and I blame me

I could be good but it ain’t me

I think the hood kinda changed me

You got pissed at me bunnin' weed

Then I started gettin' nicked every other week

I got kicked out, sent to live with my dad, but the prick never wanted me (UMM)

Started rollin' with shit you didn’t wanna see

Try to show me the way I didn’t wanna see

I made your life hectic and for all the dumb shit that did I wanna give an

apology (Sorry)

I just thought «argh shit it don’t bother me»

But I forgot about you and that’s wrong of me

Went down a bad path but you followed me

That’s why I stick my hand out if you can’t cope

That’s why I give you grands now if you’re half broke

Forgive me I’ve been an arsehole

I wanna give you everything that you ask for

I try my best to help out mum you raised me

I know you’re feeling stressed out and I blame me

I could be good but it ain’t me

I think the hood kinda changed me

I try my best to help out mum you raised me

I know you’re feeling stressed out and I blame me

I could be good but it ain’t me

I think the hood kinda changed me
