True - Hometown lyrics
These grades are getting low these kids are getting high That twelve year old is pregnant and her parents wonder why First grader is swearing kids getting raped Take a look around is this system great? Now who isn't faded kids are sending nudes That kid just got beaten and the teachers see the bruise! Marks of taunt and yelling parents are divorced That kid now drinks beer it can't get any worse That little girl just k**ed herself and no one seems the care That boy just got expelled just for a stupid dare Our world is officially broken its time to take a stand Your thoughts need to be spoken Or be snapped like a rubber band! I love you dad but you're a f**ing hypocrite! I love you man but I'm getting really sick of it I want to confront you but you'll tell me to screw off Let your new mom sit Brian get lost! Go toss a ball around While I grab another round Go do all your chores while me and her get drunk Eminem is turning you into a real f**ing punk! I said I write my own music and you just laughed I opened up my notes here a new rap I do what I feel and say what I want Sometimes its a matter of changing the font! I'm getting better grades and write my own music Yet these potheads act like I'm useless! Take my hand I will lead you out Right now isn't the time to pout Man you have to chase your dreams This could be it tonight Give me a reason to not stand and fight! I wish it didn't end I want to still be friends When I think of your smile my lips begin to bend Hey girly really sorry bout' your dad Aw he is still alive aw thats to bad! You lying f**ing b**h what did I do darling? I didn't do sh**! I thought I really loved but now I know you are misery I have no choice but to let it get the best of me! I would rather be smart than cool Educated and go to school! I know you think that I'm just a fool But I would rather have one girl than be a tool You are 45 and still hit the bar yet think you are going to go far Why? Because the fame hit and left a f**ing scar! I'm sorry I would rather rise and succeed Than sit high at home and just smoke weed Haters ask "Who is this kid trying to be?" The answer is no one I'm just being me! Thank god it isn't the generation Of being judged just because I'm caucasian! Leaving your parents thinking that you tried Okay I'm done my confidence just died! A bone can be fixed and a bruise can heal But love is a band-aid slowly being pealed! How else can I put it? Its the truth and it stands! By the way darling I have two cold empty hands! I want to take a shout-out to all the fans You gave me inspiration when I thought music couldn't do it! You took my heart and you f**ing threw it! Back in the rubble of my hometown! Where you see no smiles but only frowns! On the school bus I drive past abandoned buildings I know a few kids who can't afford their tooth fillings And all they want is to grind railings Get it through you thick skull My knifes dull I'm getting really sick of it My life's getting old!
