James... we were always friends,
From our childhood days
And we made our plans,
And we had to go our separate ways.
I went on the road-
You pursued an education.

James... do you like your life,
Can you find release,
And will you ever change-
Will you ever write your masterpiece.
Are you still in school-
Living up to expectations...james...

You were so relied upon, everybody knows how hard you tried-
Hey... just look at what a job youve done,
Carrying the weight of family pride.
James... youve been well behaved,
Youve been working so hard
But will you always stay-
Someone elses dream of who you are.
Do whats good for you, or youre not good for anybody...james.

I went on the road-
You pursued an education...james...
How you gonna know for sure-everything was so well organized.
Hey... now everything is so secure,
And everybody else is satisfied.

James... do you like your life,
Can you find release
And will you ever change,
When will you write your masterpiece.
Do whats good for you, or youre not good for anybody...james...
