Conception to Deception
from conception to deception
and somewhere in between
along the road i had hopes
along the road i had dreams
since the time of my birth
to the time spent now
the only certificate i truly have
is the one i have for my birth
but why give me a certificate
it was not exactly difficult to arrive first
from conception to deception
and something like a human being
along the road i met people
and some have even had feelings
James Garratt – May 2002
