All i want is everything

Some 15 year old kid sits on his porch, just half-past noon Trying to figure out just what he's doing Why he had to grow up so soon With all the gangs, all the guns-watcha gonna learn in school There's got to be some way out of here He says "Man, this life is cruel" I knew this Puerto Rican girl who lied to change her life She changed her name Her face because the grass looked greener on the other side She turned her back, she ran away straight into the night Her friends, her family feel the pain, but she's the one who cries Tell me what you want Tell me what you need I want everything I've had enough of havin' nothing, I won't take just anything I got my mind set on something, all I want is everything It's my life Mr. - I ain't running, I'm no puppet on a string I want more than I see coming All I want is everything All I want is everything My next door neighbor Donnie Died in his room just the other day His brother come home Found him dead on the floor with a needle in his vain Cops come down with a body bag They said Donnie was a casually I said, all it's about is the boy checked out He couldn't handle reality Tell me what you want Tell me what you need I want everything I've had enough of havin' nothing, I won't take just anything I got my mind set on something, all I want is everything It's my life Mr. - I ain't running, I'm no puppet on a string I want more than I see coming All I want is everything All I want is everything
