Lyrics
Verse 1
When I was a very young child
They said I'd go down on history
Now that I am fully grown
I've got my own story
Chorus:
Yippy Yi Aye, Aye Aye Aye
Verse 2:
Many stories have been told
Many lives were shaken
Many out to make a pound
A pound of flesh was taken
Chorus:
Verse 3:
No one chooses where they're born
It's luck, fate or destiny
No one chose this life anymore
Than you chose your poverty
Chorus:
Verse 4:
Some say what they wanna see
A life of privilege and certainty
So remember my loss and pain
No title could protect me
Chorus:
Verse 5:
Always vowed to dae my best
By family friend and country
If I fail or I succeed
I've know my own story
Chorus:
Verse 6:
When I was a very young child
They said I'd go down in history
Now that I am fully grown
I know my own story
