It's wearing on your face
Be angry at its place dig deep
Be somebody else
Pressing on the tide
Wading through the barley
I couldn't stand any more of me
A first draft parent just passing all the bad shit down
Then they parrot you back
Enough about me
Let's talk about you
For a long while
How it started out small
Now it's climbing the walls
And it leaves nothing behind
Tell me you're scared
I'll tell you the same things
Pulling me down
Say that you don't mind
You'll blend in with the aftermath
Small town did you rough
You tell me it's okay
Baby, you're a normie
What made you feel any more than that?
Gen pop visits
Forgiveness felt so sure in the aughts
Now I'm somebody else
I miss it all a little
The long walk to the middle
I fear a part of me left behind
Like when my mother lost her memory
Choking out the family
I wondered if she'd miss what was gone
What happens when the luck quit
Charm gave out, it don't hit
I won't go back to South Caroline
Where no one's gotta love you
No one's gotta love you
Enough about me
Let's talk about you
For a long while
How it started out small
It's climbing the walls
And it leaves nothing behind
You'll tell me you're scared
I'll tell you the same things
Holding me down
Three sixes just to upset the family
They're scared he's not coming back to me
But all the code switches
And commune with the mistress
I wanted there to be more than that
Easy little privilege
Upper-lower class type poor
You gotta stay where you are for now
