Child
[Chorus 1: Styalz Fuego]
When I was just a child
I didn’t know much a-
Bout ya
I was just a child
I didn’t know much a-
Bout ya
Ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 1: 360]
I had a father who came from nothin'
He took that and he made it somethin'
He’d seen it all by his twenty-first, right
His mum and dad both left this Earth, why?
It was the drinkin' that killed his mother
He’s watchin' the same thing kill his brother
And he doesn’t say it much but he really loves us
And he doesn’t want the same thing to kill his sons, uh
When he sees me with a drink in my hand
I understand now why he thinks that it’s bad
'Cause he knows that it’s so evil
But he knows we’re our own people, so he lets us go
[Chorus 2: Styalz Fuego & Melbourne Gospel Kids Choir]
When I was just a child
I didn’t know much a-
Bout ya, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
I was just a child
I didn’t know much a-
Bout ya, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Now I know, now I know
Now I know-oh-oh-oh
Now I know, now I know
Now I know-oh-oh-oh
I was just a child
I didn’t know much a-
Bout ya, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
[Verse 2: 360]
See, I don’t know if God’s real
But if He is, I can imagine how God feels
And there’s things I’d discuss with Him
I bet He wouldn’t change much but there’s shit He would have done different
When my grandpa passed away
I remember sayin' bye on his last few days
And I’m hopin' there’s a heaven, I wanna meet again
And I never met anybody as positive as him
Not many were as sick as him
But he didn’t let the illness kill his grin
And that’s why I went ahead and inked my skin
'Cause I remember the smile when I think of him, like
[Chorus 2: Styalz Fuego & Melbourne Gospel Kids Choir]
When I was just a child
I didn’t know much a-
Bout ya, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
I was just a child
I didn’t know much a-
Bout ya, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Now I know, now I know
Now I know-oh-oh-oh
Now I know, now I know
Now I know-oh-oh-oh
I was just a child
I didn’t know much a-
Bout ya, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
[Post-Chorus: Melbourne Gospel Kids Choir]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
[Verse 3: 360]
I didn’t know that my brother got bullied at school
If I could go back now, I wouldn’t be fooled
He prob'ly thought mum and dad don’t fuckin' care
But it wasn’t even that, they were so unaware
Livin' in a family where money is favoured
Makes us wanna say, "I fuckin' hate it"
Brother though, we gotta feel blessed as fuck
Just remember, they only want the best for us
We got a mum that’s an angel, I’m thankful
Just to even have her in my life, I am grateful (Grateful)
Family is anybody close to you
But, see, this song right here, it is overdue for you
[Chorus 2: Styalz Fuego & Melbourne Gospel Kids Choir]
When I was just a child
I didn’t know much a-
Bout ya, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
I was just a child
I didn’t know much a-
Bout ya, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Now I know, now I know
Now I know-oh-oh-oh
Now I know, now I know
Now I know-oh-oh-oh
I was just a child
I didn’t know much a-
Bout ya, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
[Post-Chorus: Melbourne Gospel Kids Choir]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
