Don't let anyone tell you
"You better grow up soon"
Or face the consequences
Of a life not planned out.
That's exactly what you need.
I'm here to tell you leave
The bullshit you've been taught behind
And find out for yourself.
That work is slavery
And it makes you a slave.
and I know it's easy for
Somebody like me to say.
But I dropped that f****** life.
And I don't regret the bridges that I burned.
Mistakes I made.
They're what I learned from.
Yes, you've gotta pay the rent
And feed yourself and then
Pay all the bills and taxes
'Til you're ready to explode.
And kill yourself and those
Who get in your way.
Don't misunderstand me
I'm just trying to remind you that
Your life is not TV and
Things don't just work out.
Most of the time you're miserable.
The American Dream
Is an ugly f****** lie.
A wild goose chase.
You're here to make the richest
Six percent a little richer.
1.. 2.. 1.. 2.. 3.. 4!
Don't you want something better?
Don't you want something that lasts?
They're not your friends.
They're your masters and
They don't care if you live or die.
You've gotta get out on your own.
You've gotta get out of this stupid town
And try to live for once
Instead of just existing.
And I guarantee that pretty soon you're gonna see
that things aren't half as good or as bad as they used to seem.
Now that you're a thorn in the side of society.
Now that you're part of the problem.
The ruination of a system that keeps you down,
Steals your money and your hope
And then smacks you around.
Don't you want to get out of this town?
Don't you want to get out of this f****** life?
