Stole

He was always such a nice boy

The quiet one with good intentions

He was down for his brother, respectful to his mother

A good boy, but good don't get attention

One kid with a promise

The brightest kid in school, he's not a fool

Reading books about science and smart stuff, it's not enough, no

'Cause smart don't make you cool, whoa

(He's not invisible anymore)

With his father's nine and a broken fuse

(Since he walked through that classroom door)

He's all over primetime news

Mary's got the same size hands as Marilyn Monroe

She put her fingers in the imprints at Manns Chineses Theater show

She could've been a movie star

Never got the chance to go that far

Her life was stole, oh, and now we'll never know

No, no, no, no (Stole)

They were cryin' to the camera

Said he never fitted in, he wasn't welcomed

He showed up to the parties we was hangin' in

Some guys were puttin' him down, bullyin' him round and round

Now I wish I would've talked to him

Gave him the time of day, not turn away

If I would've, then it wouldn't have maybe go this far

He might have stayed at home

Playin' angry chords on his guitar

(He's not invisible anymore)

With his baggy pants and his legs in chains

(Since he walked through that classroom door)

Everybody knows his name

Mary's got the same size hands as Marilyn Monroe

She put her fingers in the imprints at Manns Chineses Theater show

(She could've been a movie star) She could've been a movie star

Never got the chance to go that far

Her life was stole, oh, and now we'll never know

(Now we'll never know) Oh

Greg was always getting net from twenty feet away (Twenty feet away)

He had a tryout with the Sixers, couldn't wait for Saturday (Saturday)

Now we're never gonna see him slam

Flyin' high as Kobe can

His life was stole, oh, and now we'll never know

(Now we'll never, never, never know)

Stole (Stole) stole

(Stole) Ooh, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Mary's got the same size hands as Marilyn Monroe

She put her fingers in the imprints at Manns Chineses Theater show

(She was gonna be a star)

She could've been a movie star

Never got the chance to go that far (Never got the chance)

Her life was stole, oh, and now we'll never know (Stole, stole)

(Now we'll never, never know, no)

Greg was always getting net from twenty feet away (He had game, oh)

He had a tryout with the Sixers, couldn't wait for Saturday

Now we're never gonna see him slam (Never see him)

Flyin' high as Kobe can

His life was stole, oh, and now we'll never know

(Now we'll never, never know)

Oh, no, no, no

Yeah, their lives were stole

Now we'll never know (Stole)
