    I've seen a rich man beg
    I've seen a good man sin
    I've seen a tough man cry
    I've seen a loser win
    And a sad man grin
    I heard an honest man lie
    I've seen the good side of bad
    And the downside of up
    And everything between
    I licked the silver spoon
    Drank from the golden cup and smoked the finest green
    Stroked the fattest dimes at least a couple of times
    Before I broke their heart
    You know where it ends, yo, it usually depends on where you start...

    The end of the video is so incredibly genius to me, but nobody ever comments on it. That family sitting in their little glass house just oblivious to all the issues (probably while being judgmental) while everyone else is on the outside looking in on them (wondering what THAT must be like also) I just love how thought provoking and real it is. One of the most underrated bands of the 90s/00s in my opinion.

    This was a great song that has withstood the test of time. I was almost 40 when this came out and was impressed at the time that this young guy spoke so much truth. I am 62 now, and every word is still relevant in our society. It was the same when I was 20, and when I was born. Only now, with news and images at our fingertips, do we think these issues are new. It is just a continuous stream of history repeating itself, except the distance between the "haves" and the "have nots" grows more disproportionately.

My grandfather gave her her biological mother's info when she was still a teen, but my mom never had a desire to connect with her~ she always felt that she ended up with exactly the parents God wanted her to, and she was 100% satisfied with His choice. My mom passed away a year ago tomorrow at age 91. She gave my sisters and I her "bio" info in case we ever wanted to explore that, but we feel the same way she did. I believe when we get to Heaven we'll be able to make those connections. I wish you all the best and pray it continues to be transformative for both you, and your daughter~ God Bless 🙏

    I like the new setup.
    I love this song.
    So massively relevant today.
    I'm sorry that you and your wife have dealt with that loss.
    Why isn't this a simple concept for so many people?
    Don't judge someone's path.
    Get to know them and help them up and not look down on them.

    The album is titled “Whitey Ford sings the Blues”. I’m surprised blues didn’t show up as a genre for this music.

    This has all kinds of hip hop in it. He is riding the beat, he has multiple syllables in the lyrics. Everlast first came out with Ice T in the 80's with the Syndicate. He is still doing hip hop (old school) with WARPORN Industries. He also had another group called La Koka Nostra, and he still does his talking blues stuff like this. Lot of people ignore the talking blues influence on hip hop. Johnny Cash, Hank Str and more did it and it was them sing talkng over beats.

      Yes! I wasn't the only person who commented about La Coka Nostra. I also like his tune, Slow Your Roll.

    I got pregnant when I was told I couldn’t. I considered it a miracle. At 4.5 months, a check showed it was misdeveloped and dead. I’m just glad I could have the D&C in the hospital and not go to a clinic and be yelled at on the worst day of my life. Nearly 20 years later, it still hurts.

    Everlast dropped two of the biggest hits of the 90s and while they both kinda became memes of themselves shortly after coming out they will always be legendary tracks that regardless what you think of them they were a huge part of the zeitgeist of their time and are now known as classics.

    I think the ending is so poignant, yet rarely talked about. The seemingly perfect, happy family oblivious to the struggles around them. But also, behind glass, like a museum display, rare and untouchable, but longed for by the crowd outside.
    He has some excellent songs.

    I think it's considered hip-hop because of the production and percussion, it just gives the song a bit of a hip hop feel.
