Lyrics
Same Blood That We Bleed
By Reed Dickinson
I am a twelve year old boy
I know where I want to go
I do what I have to do
I want a life that I can enjoy
I want to have some fun
Stop giving me work to do
Want to hang out with my friends
Just let me play; just let me run
Chorus
Time for me
I just need a little time for me
No one understands what I do all day
It would take too long to explain my way so why bother
Time with me
I just want you to spend some more time with me
And try for once to see how I feel
Listen to me during our next meal
Find out what I really need
?Cause it?s the same blood that we bleed
I am a regular mom
I do the best that I can
It wasn?t too long ago
That we had an incredible bond
I didn?t read a book
I know I started quite young
I wanted you so bad
But now all I do is clean and cook
Chorus: Repeat
Bridge
I can learn
I can listen
I can show you more love
Chorus: Repeat
