Mockingbird Franklin lyrics

She`s never known acceptance
She`s never known the world
She says i like to call myself m
But my real name is mockingbird

Mockingbird franklin
So how do you do
Mockingbird franklin
I`m a lot like you

She says her mother is gone now
She says her mother got killed
I said i`m sorry but is it true
Did she really name you mockingbird

Mockingbird franklin
Broke your heart in two
Mockingbird franklin
I`m a lot like you

Mockingbird don`t you change
Just because you`re not like them
Oh mockingbird you`re not the same

Alone along the sidewalk
Her steps are barely heard
It`s kinda funny that it`s her name
`cus she`s nothing like a mockingbird
Nothing like a mockingbird

Mockingbird franklin
Don`t it get to you
Mockingbird franklin
I`m a lot like you
I`m a lot like you
It`s true
