[Verse 1] | |
It’s hard to be living | |
You gotta play the cards you were given | |
You think it’s simple but it goddamn isn’t | |
It’s tougher now than breaking out of Shawshank prison | |
And as you’re hittin your prime | |
People say you been committing a crime | |
But I won’t quit till I’m home | |
I’ll chip the limestone a bit at a time | |
Wait! I’m a pale ass pale middle-class straight white male | |
I won’t have an alibi the day I fail | |
Cause if I ever went to jail, Mom would pay my bail | |
In a [boom-boom] heartbeat | |
Mom and Dad have given me a lot more than a pat on the back | |
And I gotta thank ‘em for loving me | |
From the moment I was strapped in a Volvo car seat | |
When I needed a pep talk | |
I couldn’t remember to wreck shop | |
Writer’s block, staring at my laptop desktop | |
Or sleeping in my rental in a turnpike rest stop | |
Shit in storage, living from a suitcase | |
Thinking “this is how a silver spoon tastes?” | |
Cause you can make a dream possible | |
But it’ll never be easy, no matter what you chase | |
If you wanna poke fun then do so | |
I’ll do it for you, it’s no crime | |
I’m like if the dude from Juno grew a Jewfro and liked to rhyme [OOoooooohhh!!!] | |
So tell me that I’m not a rapper | |
Tell Rudolph he can’t pull sleighs | |
Tell pluto it’s not a planet | |
And he’ll probably keep spinning in the same old way | |
On and on, every day | |
Right around the sun, wanna feel the rays | |
You do it ‘cause you love it like nothing else in the universe | |
And fuck it, it’s embedded in your DNA |
Verse 1 | |
It' s hard to be living | |
You gotta play the cards you were given | |
You think it' s simple but it goddamn isn' t | |
It' s tougher now than breaking out of Shawshank prison | |
And as you' re hittin your prime | |
People say you been committing a crime | |
But I won' t quit till I' m home | |
I' ll chip the limestone a bit at a time | |
Wait! I' m a pale ass pale middleclass straight white male | |
I won' t have an alibi the day I fail | |
Cause if I ever went to jail, Mom would pay my bail | |
In a boomboom heartbeat | |
Mom and Dad have given me a lot more than a pat on the back | |
And I gotta thank ' em for loving me | |
