[Verse 1: Jordan Rakei]
The child was given food
But did not eat it
The child was given shelter
But did not sleep in it
The child was given love
But did not take
The child was shown a path, hm
That he could not make
The boy was given hope
But hope prevailed him
The boy was given a chance
But that chance failed him
The boy was given love
But did not take
The boy was shown a path, hm
That he could not make
[Chorus: Jordan Rakei]
But he was hoping for the better, yeah
Just like another man would do, no
But now it's only rainy weather
Nothing's new
What to do
The child was given food
But did not eat it
The child was given shelter
But did not sleep in it
The child was given love
But did not take
The child was shown a path, hm
That he could not make
The boy was given hope
But hope prevailed him
The boy was given a chance
But that chance failed him
The boy was given love
But did not take
The boy was shown a path, hm
That he could not make
[Chorus: Jordan Rakei]
But he was hoping for the better, yeah
Just like another man would do, no
But now it's only rainy weather
Nothing's new
What to do
