Lies by King Sympathetic Lyrics
I was told as a kid
Don't give up
But I did.
I was told that
I could be President
Never got told
I would be homeless?
Twenty in a Shelter
Things weren’t getting better.
Keep trying
Have you head up.
please.
I am fucking fed up
'Cause I fucked up!
The struggle is real
You privileged mother fuckers
Don't know how it feels.
Trying to be something
I can be proud of
If that were the case
I'd be high above
The people who hate me.
Yet they have always won
I am left on my own
Fake friends stop checking in.
How I could even move forward?
So I am left to wonder
When I have lost my self
Engulf in ADD, Depression,
And Autism Spectrum Disorder?
You don't know shit bout me
Don't even try to play me.
None of these people
Understand my Difficulties.
They told me to smile
Grow up
Save your money
Be an adult.
Easier said than done
I'm fucked.
Life is an experience
For those who enjoy it
But I can't do it
When I just want to quit.
Agencies suffer from being lazy
Dope me up on medicine
Cause it's the only cure for crazy.
They have you hooked on it
Taking a lot of Ritalin
They blame you/
When you develop an addiction.
This society
Treats you well if you pay
Telling us lies
Assuming it's okay.
News coverage
Talk nothing but shit
Hidden agendas
Making you its bitch.
But where is help
When I need it the most?
Oh I know
A Like and share
Equals a prayer
On a Facebook Post.
This world is limited
To those who live in it.
Some are lucky
Like the Corporations
Who pay their workers lshit!
Seven Twenty-Five
To be treated like dicks.
I am done with it!
Parents nowadays scratching their heads
Wonderin why kids can't save their Paychecks
Face it! It's second nature
We spend it easily
Schools don't teach
Nothing but the basics.
We grow up with a false representation
Told life is what we make it
But not once were we told
That life is just a state of imagination.
You graduate to go to college
But in reality
We are struggling for knowledge.
When college isn't free.
Babying me in the name of caring
But won't allow me to make decisions
Cause you're scared of embarrassment
From my current altercation.
I understand fully
I take responsibility
But I can't make it
If No one helps me.
Don't give up
But I did.
I was told that
I could be President
Never got told
I would be homeless?
Twenty in a Shelter
Things weren’t getting better.
