Beat by Rixe, Lyrics by The Elegant Eccentric

lyrics

I make music solely for these scared little kids
To try and teach em how hard this life truly is
If you're a disenchanted youth frustrated and pissed
still sitting on his front porch trying to spit
man it ain't in my blood to be a pacifist
so it's time to step up and say this to the rich

Step Back
Shut the fuck up and get back in line
That's that
everything you thought you had is still mine
Step Back
quickly cause I think you're running out of time
Fuck that
you hate your life so stay outta mine

From the Rez I traveled on roads of gravel
And scrambled over ample land samples
Lit a candle so this mammal could handle the darkness
My childhood has left me heartless
HA HA
Never gave a fuck or begged your pardon

I'll never say I'm sorry for all the shit that I've done
This is my life mother fucker and I'll live it how I want
So I won't bow down like a pussy in front of your gods
I wanna show that he's neglectful and expose his facade

You only live once so this is the only chance I've got
To achieve the dreams that I've so deperately sought
It makes my heart stop to hear that a friend got shot
I'm fucking serious brian you gotta knock that shit off

Sometimes I get so stressed that I ingest some pot
So I don't fucking care if people think I'm the best or not
Man, I kidnapped freedom of speech and don't plan on getting caught
cause I'm tired of being measured by what I ain't got

Be aware it's apparent that we're judged by what we do
It doesn't matter what the fuck you parents supposedly did to you
and self awareness is a power that's only granted to a few
that's why so many people in this country ain't got a clue

They don't understand the fighting won't stop until we find someone to trust
cause this world was built by people like us
We're the faces on the bus and the kids in handcuffs
we're the young punks calling out all of their bluffs

We never gave up or said enough is enough
Even when we were in jail and addicted to drugs
Now wielding the sword covered in the dust from the past
So my last message to the rich is shut the fuck up

And take a step back!
