Analysis of Jean Philippe
Pretty soon my grandma will be gone
My mother is getting older
My father has never been there for me
Water and me ran dry
Lately I feel all alone
I wonder if there is any happiness I can ever ascertain
Asking Jean Philippe who he really is?
I gotta find him before it is too late.
I have lived a life full of adversity and pain
But I keep trudging on in pursuit of positive gains.
Hoping to find inner peace and joy deep down inside
