Like High School
A mother wakes her child And dons a smile The helplessness of The love and hope She holds so tightly How her baby's grown up The day begins The doe-eyed kid The one with big ambition Perfects his dress So he'll impress But it's just ammunition
The pretty girls Aware the world Will serve their petty appetite And pander to the dudes Who buy the booze To party Friday nights They rifle threats As you lament How no one acts like they should Prey on the lame The caste remains The same into adulthood
Because when you step into the real world It's just like high school
So they told you it's a fresh start That you'll make it with a clean heart Well, they left you in the dark Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com They were leading you, leading you on Something's got to give, right? Or stay this way all my life? I'm sorry, but they lied. They were leading you, leading you on.
The bass line kicks The same old shit It strikes a nerve and haunts you While faces change That old refrain It sticks just like a tattoo The cliques were formed Before you were born And they did not include you Your expectation's Medication's how you'll have to get through
Because when you step into the real world It's just like high school
The art of growing up Is to realize you'll hate everything and everyone You loved so much
Young troubled souls Without a role model to look up to And still you wonder why a kid Would bring a gun to high school
