lyrics

Verse 1
When I was younger, I used to dream in color
Now I'm kind of older, and I don't sleep at all
I'm always dosing off, can't concentrate long
and I have turrets thoughts of flipping everybody off
They say that I'm an "asshole", associate with jerks
but I never labeled you, so tell me who the hell is worst
Shaking my head while I carry on instead
They try to set up "locks" but I'll never let it "dread"
Just comb it out, or easier just cut it off
Whatever path you choose, just don't let make you soft
Hold your head high cause they'll try to bring you down
and your life might be a "circus" but don't' ever be their "Clown"
Confused now, they haven't got a clue
but they still insist how they could walk in your shoes
So what you got to lose? Let 'um try to gain
and when they feel like fools, they'll understand your pain

Chorus
Oh
You got me killing myself
With these card's I've been dealt
It can't be good for my health
So you got me like
Oh

Bridge
I know you need this anthem for that time when you feeling like
Oh
Get your middle fingers up, middle fingers up
Throw 'um in their face if they start to complain

Verse 2
Now that I'm older I think a little longer
Because when I was a youngin' see I never thought at all
I was always dosing off, never serious for long
and my teachers knew what to expect every single Fall
But see I never failed, honestly I barely passed
and for messing up in class, here's the life that I have
They say I should "be glad" compare it to something bad
but of course, my life is better compared to being dead
The reasoning they use being content when they lose
Will always make a loss feel like it's kind of cool.
But see that is untrue when they do the reciprocal 
Winners "get applauded", not "get ridiculed"
refuse to understand it, they wanna have it handed
taking life for granted got that poverty expanding
Their eyes both sanded, they're going at it wrong
hopefully, they use their ears and listen to the song

Chorus
Bridge
