Oh my, oh my God
It's brain damage
Drugs is what they used to say I was on
It's brain damage
"Mr. Mathers, the fun and games are over
Brain damage, ever since the day I was born
I made them think they beat me to death
Brain damage
"What's the matter?"
'Cause I was always sick of brawny bullies pickin' on me
Then I got up and ran to the janitor's storage booth
The principal walked in and started helpin' him stomp me
One day he came in the bathroom while I was pissin'
I picked it up and screamed, "Look bitch, what have you done?"
But everywhere I go they keep playin' my song
I tried to plead and tell him, "We shouldn't beat"
A kid who refused to respect adults
I got brain damage
Brain damage, ever since the day I was born
"Oh my God, I'm sorry son", "Shut up you cunt", I said, "Fuck it"
Or stole my seat in the lunchroom and drank my chocolate milk
"Leg? I thought you said it was your tummy?"
Brain damage
We're gonna have to shock him
Here
They say I never knew which way I was goin'
And had me in the position to beat me into submission
I cocked the broomstick back and swung hard as I could
Took it and stuck it back up in my head
Wore spectacles with taped frames and a freckled nose
These are the results of a thousand electric volts
Then I sewed it shut and put a couple of screws in my neck
Sponge
Something told me, "Try to fake a stomach ache it works"
They say I never knew which way I was goin'
I was harassed daily by this fat kid named D'Angelo Bailey
He said, "Don't try to run from me, you'll just make it worse"
Look at you, you're gettin' blood all over my rug!"
"But don't you wanna give me after school detention?"
So everyday he'd shove me in the lockers
But everywhere I go they keep playin' my song
But everywhere I go they keep playin' my song
"This is for every time you took my orange juice
But everywhere I go they keep playin' my song
Way before my baby daughter Hailey
Started reading a comic and suddenly everything became gray
But he just wouldn't leave, he kept chokin' me and I couldn't breathe
"I don't know, my leg, it hurts"
She beat me over the head with the remote control
Drugs is what they used to say I was on
My palms were sweaty and I started to shake at first
Oh my God
Teacher, teacher, quick I need a naked nurse"
Every time you tipped my tray and it dropped and spilt
Holdin' my breath for like five minutes before they finally left
He looked at me and said, "You gonna die honkey"
Brain damage
It's brain damage
Drugs is what they used to say I was on
I couldn't even see what I was tryin' to read
"Oh, I mean it is but I also got a bum knee"
I decided to strike back and flatten every tire on the bike rack
"It's you and I, three o'clock sharp' this afternoon you die"
Wait, he's convulsing, he's convulsing
I'm gettin' you back bully, now once and for good"
"Nah, that bully wants to beat your ass and I'ma let him"
Drugs is what they used to say I was on
And I might snap, one day just like that
Soaked my clothes in blood, grabbed me and choked my throat
I went deaf and my left ear started to bleed
I screamed, "My appendix feels like they could burst
A neck with bolts, "Nurse we're losin' him, check the pulse"
They say I never knew which way I was goin'
We're gonna have to shock him
Opened a hole, and my whole brain fell out of my skull
An eighth grader who acted obnoxious 'cause his father boxes
Brain damage, ever since the day I was born
Made it home, later that same day
Brain damage, ever since the day I was born
And just for that stunt, you're gonna get some extra homework"
It's probably brain damage
They say I never knew which way I was goin'
"I already gave you my lunch money what more do you want from me?"
A corny lookin' white boy, scrawny and always ornery
And beat him over the head with it 'til I broke the wood
Kicked the door hinge loose and ripped out the four inch screws
My first day in junior high, this kid said
My mother started screamin', "What are you on, drugs?
I looked at my watch it was one twenty
Knocked him down, stood on his chest with one foot
He banged my head against the urinal 'til he broke my nose
Grabbed some sharp objects, brooms and foreign tools
