World's Best Dad

They tell you there were better days

You can't remember through the haze

This is the only life you've ever known

They sigh and talk about fist fights

When you could go to sleep at night

Without avengers tearing out your wishbone

You pray to god and wonder just who's up there

What kind of father would leave his kids alone

In a world where you're lucky if your mom cares

Hordes of people call the street their homes

They want to take away the guns

You want to get some bigger ones

Your defense is up to you alone

They think that they can stop the heat

But they don't understand the street

You don't want your girl crying on your tombstone

Living in that memory

Don't understand what they see

So they pay cops to make it yesterday

You can't push back the hands of time

You want to know and keep on trying

Do your best to stay out of their way
