[00:14.34]Looking back now I didn't know what it was supposed to be
[00:17.96]And it's like raising kids man
[00:19.93]If you weren't raised they don't know how to raise you know
[00:22.82]I just did the best that I could with them
[00:24.54]Because they know f**kin' well I love them
[00:28.76]But I didn't do the best I could
[00:31.16]I didn't know what the f**k I was doing
[00:34.25]I didn't
[00:37.94]I will never forget
[00:39.40]Watching my mother get put in a straightjacket
[00:42.65]And taken out of my home
[00:44.07]When I was only seven years old
[00:46.80]She was diagnosed with Dementia praecox
[00:48.83]And put in a mental institution
[00:50.81]Leaving my daddy alone with me
[00:52.89]And my little brother Lloyd
[00:55.83]I later had an evil stepmother
[00:58.11]Who further cemented the idea that I didn't need a mother
[01:02.47]Growing up without one had long lasting impressions
[01:05.47]I didn't fully understand until much later in life
[01:10.13]It bled into my relationships with family
[01:12.83]And those I had became romantically involved with
[01:17.31]Whenever I got too close to a woman I would cut her off
[01:20.75]Part of that was vindictive and partially based on fear
[01:25.25]But it was also totally subconsious
[01:30.16]Looking back is a b***h innit

Looking back now I didn't know what it was supposed to be
And it's like raising kids man
If you weren't raised they don't know how to raise you know
I just did the best that I could with them
Because they know f**kin' well I love them
But I didn't do the best I could
I didn't know what the f**k I was doing
I didn't
I will never forget
Watching my mother get put in a straightjacket
And taken out of my home
When I was only seven years old
She was diagnosed with Dementia praecox
And put in a mental institution
Leaving my daddy alone with me
And my little brother Lloyd
I later had an evil stepmother
Who further cemented the idea that I didn't need a mother
Growing up without one had long lasting impressions
I didn't fully understand until much later in life
It bled into my relationships with family
And those I had became romantically involved with
Whenever I got too close to a woman I would cut her off
Part of that was vindictive and partially based on fear
But it was also totally subconsious
Looking back is a b***h innit
