He was always such a nice boy,
The quiet one with good intentions,
He was down with his brother, respectful to his mother,
A good boy,
But good don't get attention.
One kid with the promise,
The brightest kid in school, he's not a fool,
Reading books bout science and smart stuff,
It's not enough,no,
'Cause smart don't make you cool
Well he's not invisible anymore,
With his father's nine and a broken fuse,
Since he walked through that classroom door,
He's all over prime time news.
Chorus
Mary's got the same size hands as Marilyn Monroe,
She put her fingers in the imprints,
At Mann's Chinese Theatre Show,
She could've been a movie star,
Never got the chance to go that far,
Her life was stole Oh Oh, now we'll never know,
They're crying to the camera,
Said he never fitted in, he wasn't welcome,
He'd show up to the parties we was hanging in,
Some guys were putting him down, bullin' him 'round,
Now I wish I would have talked to him,
Gave him the time of day, not turn away,
If I would've then it wouldn't maybe go this far,
He'd might'a stayed at home playing angry chords on his guitar.
He's not invisible anymore,
With his baggy pants and his legs in chains,
Since he walked through that classroom door,
Everybody knows his name,
Chorus
Greg was always getting net from 20 feet away
He had a tryout with the Sixahs couldn't wait for Saturday,
Now we're never gonna see him slam,
Flyin' as high as Kobe can,
His life was stole Oh! Oh! Now we'll never know.
Ya their lives were stole,
Now we'll never know.
We were here, all together yesterday????
