Tramp moves on to the end of the street
I listen to the echo of his hobnail feet
For some there's a future to find
But I think they're leaving me behind

The world hurries on at it's breakneck pace
People fly by in their lifelong race
For them there's a future to find
And I think they're leaving me behind

The chances they come
But the chances have been lost
Success can be gained
But at too great a cost
For some there's a future to find
But I think they're leaving me behind

The wind sweeps up and goes back to it's tree
The rain flows by and moves on to the sea
For them there's a future to find
But I think they're leaving me behind

    I absolutely agree with you.

    Anyone who even remotely likes Drake should get hold of his home recordings compilation album "Family Tree" released in 2007.

    It sacrifices studio quality recording for exquisite beauty, it is well worth having.
