Coming of Age

[Bridge:]

Through all the good things, and all the hardships

And all the times that we thought that we lost it

We hold our heads high, and keep our chins up

Cause when we die, well, at least we did something

We- went for broke when we found a cause

We- took the path that they said was wrong

So when that song plays, you know where you where

The day we live for. The day the truth worked

Work, work. Yeah the truth works

At the very same time, yeah, the truth hurts

Been taught our whole lives just to shoot first

I'mma keep living 'til they put me in that new hearse

[Hook:]

Keep on moving, steady screaming out "EH!"

And we only get one, so damn it we gon' "EH!"

Too big to fail, they bail, we gon' stay

Put our time in hard, we all coming of age

They've been speaking from the roof top. I've been on the ground floor

With my fucking boom box. Trying to play it loud for 'em

They don't wanna hear that, but they'll play anything

Call me John Cusack. I will say anything

To keep the truth mixed in I will be the sixth man

Living in a different world. Look at this wingspan

Fuck it I can fly high. Pockets still way low

So I don't play games. Never seen a Halo

I ain't trying to hate though. Got my own vices

Help me get through, but they still love crisis

So we do the give and take. Looking for the give and go

I be setting screens so mean Doc Rivers called

But I'm on a different grind, and time has never been abundant

Your family stays modern when you play Al Bundy

Negative as fuck, but your heart's in the right place

Paying life's toll so appreciate the chump change

[Bridge]

[Hook]

On my grown shit. I've been walking tightropes

And that stress is a mess so I might smoke

While I ponder all the things that calm me

Friends and my family. Hand me my palm trees

'Til I learn something. Hop up out the jerk store

[?] Larry David I'm on the search for

And I don't need the money, but I need the freedom

Either way I'm writing, and I'm never leaving

'Till I'm satisfied, satiated, gratified

Hunger for the better times. Constitution ratified

[?] Tryina see if I can actualize

Drug store poet, cause that motherfucker's better high

Ugh! And we'll be laughing at the politics

Fucking all the pretty girls we used to have a problem with

Yeah. Break hearts then they JDate

Searching for the holler bread. Baby you are way late

[Bridge]
