Verse 3(Same Chords)

Nothing but sunlight will help you grow,
From underneath you bed, you cant
See the window
We done chose what we see
we dont choose (Riff 1)

Fortunate and angry, just like a child
All that money buys your medicine,
but cant buy ya time.
We dont chose who love, and she dont
chose what she got. (Riff 1)
