Yeah, we still dreamin' in America
One time for the fighters, I'm hearing ya
West side, East side, man, it's all the same
Down south, Midwest gotta make a change
Still believe in America
Yeah, we been through it all, so I'm here with ya
Starting now, we gotta make a change, yeah
And tonight we gon' all rage
Felt like the world ended last night
And it wasn't that bad
We all bled the same colour
How ironic is that?
Wasn't about to do it sober, so we threw one back
And somehow made it to heaven and I split it with Mac
Yeah, my biggest pet peeve is how time flies
Is it harder to keep a secret or to keep a surprise?
I would have to say secret you could tell by my eyes
And I'm gone and ain't nobody surprised
Wish I could see me through my fan's eyes, hmm
Because I live my lowest lows, but they only see my highest highs
I get triggered by the sound of a metronome
Make the whole city put a smile on
Feel like, I did this on my ten-thousandth hour
Nowadays, you gotta die if you wanna get your flowers
Yeah, my palms sweating while I'm standing in my shower
Lettin' all these bad thoughts overpower the nice guy
For real, man
You know that I got bad days too
Where the room feels cold
And the sky ain't blue
And the nights feel long
And the clock's like glue
And my mic' won't listen
And these thoughts feel true
A piano loop and I'm back to my roots
Keep it simple when I'm speaking the truth, aye
A piano loop and I'm back to my roots
Even the happy guy gets sad too, yeah
I can't see the downfall of another hometown hero
'Cause that could be me
Yeah, the whole world could see
I can't see the downfall of another hometown hero
'Cause that could be me
Yeah, the whole world could see
Aye
I watch people fall in love with the person that they pretend to be
Things in front of me become a distant memory
Damn, that long night in November almost put myself outta my misery
And that's not even something that I told my parents
'Cause I didn't want 'em to be scared or embarrassed
And if you're in my corner, then I'm sorry that you had to hear this
But mental health don't really got no physical appearance
I started taking life less serious
Aye, I learned that less is more
I vow to never take my life if you don't take yours
I mean we both gon' be out there on the tours, hmm
I'd rather live with the "Oh wells than what ifs"
Listen close, who else giving you real shit?
I never said I was a role model
I don't think Superman would go and drink the whole fifth
I can't see the downfall of another hometown hero
'Cause that could be me
Yeah, the whole world could see
I can't see the downfall of another hometown hero
'Cause that could be me
Yeah, the whole world could see
I can't see the downfall of another hometown hero
'Cause that could be me
Yeah, the whole world could see
I can't see the downfall of another hometown hero
'Cause that could be me
Yeah, the whole world could see
