Time - Anti-Smiles lyrics
Everyone's anti No one wants to smile X2 We all like to chuckle But when we're alone, our face is locked in a frown We like to build sand castles And complain when they get knocked down I write out all my anger, and scream out all my stress I'm trying to make hate a stranger While getting discouragement undressed I stared success in the eye and noticed a difference The one's who get a conversation stick with it While the others just sit around talking about how they're gifted Tonight they'll talk about determination and pa**ion Tomorrow they'll do nothing Except procrastinate in fashion And if I catch anymore popularity i'll be selling out And if anyone buy's my shirts Stickers or albums, ill be a sell out So I guess the only way For anyone to know my name is to yell and shout God forbid you should make money for doing what you love God forbid I'm happy for a second back stroking thru my blood When did singing songs become a crime? Tickets to my left, ATM's to my right It seems I'm going broke $20 at a time Come watch the cynics cut me from head to toe Then join me for a swim in salt water Bravery told me courage sold everything she owned Cause she was afraid fear would rob her Arrogance and jealousy had a kid named ignorant Ignorant met genius and hypocrit was their daughter Dave and debby had a kid named chris Who went to school and didn't like to be bothered Chris had an imaginary friend named time Who liked to stay up all night Writing raps until he woke up in his slobber Until he woke up in his anti (Hook) The dumbest thing I ever saw a person do was nothing Let me drown in my sh** I'm gonna die with my ship Talking to the ghost of captain Nemo But watch what you say Cause if you talk about love they'll call you emo And if you write about you're feelings they'll call you a f*ggot But pay they no mind I keep writing from dissapointing inspiration out of habit I'm still waiting until the day I can save the one I love And point the gun at the eye of the rabbit The rumors arent true, that song wasn't about you But it's true, that song would be nothing without you And I got to keep writing cause I can't keep opening wounds at these shows I'm simply trying to heal from my art writing songs as I grow And I know, not every thing I do is perfect But I feel every word I write is worth it They say I can't do it I think I can, why the f** can't i? I finally got a date with persistance But I'm gonna dumb her cause her smiles were anti It was a one night lay I made her leave the same night Tugging her cargo of agony I'm as beautiful as a statistic I'm as famous as dawn davenport stabbing me I got one dad, thats enough And I love him, thank you much And lord lay me to rest the day my soul suffers from neglect I just want to write songs That give people the chills and goosebumps on their necks (HOOK) Everyone's high, now they want to smile
