"Not appreciateds" just his first name.
Em D C
Hes the scapegoat of the class

Em D C
no girls, no sweet romance.

And its impossible to expand,
Em D C
when you never got a second chance.

Trumped-up excuses as he told mom.
Em D C
-Im safer here with you.
G
She told her son. -Some day theyll all be
Em D C
sorry for mistreating you.
G
Dont be afraid my son and trust me,
Em D C
-Youll be someone they will look up to.
