I dropped out of high school   It bored me to death   They taught me a dress code   And lodged my respect      I flied up to New York   And learned from the plants   That the sun hadn't set   On this boy yet      I came back an artist   I tried to play a story   Friends called me loser   Yet envied the glory      I fought for humanity   I sank in the sand   But the sun hasn't set   On this boy yet   On this boy yet      Everyone just makes me strong alright   Somehow when the lights went out   I got myself through the night, yes I did      So I went west   And I found out   Hope was all around me   And that's what life is all about      I'm back on my feet   Err, with no regrets   'Cause the sun hasn't set   On this boy yet      No, the sun hasn't set   On this boy yet   The sun hasn't set on this boy yet   On this boy yet
