lyrics

[Verse 1]
If you wanna visit John McCain’s grave, then you’ll have to wash my piss off
Short shorts, nail polish, and some lip balm
Fist balled, yelling at a brick wall
Old-heads bent on gatekeeping a game should stick to stickball
Staying way off the grid like the kick and the snare
FBI chipped my wardrobe just to track what I wear
Splitting hairs picking which oppressor to kill
Hated cops as a kid, I didn’t listen in D.A.R.E.
Fucking abusers can’t hide behind allegedly
Profit off a lie like Miley Cyrus off the ketamine
Sensitive and quiet with depression and anxiety
And still find the time to outshine all of my enemies
Get the fuck over that hip-hop from ‘73
Talk about that shit with old ass Betty and Gene
Any time my girl tells me, I get on my knees
Shit, I’m living the millennial American dream

[Chorus]
Another year, another step to heaven’s gates, sonny
Immature baby boy, I don’t save money
I might go out young, whatcha say, buddy?
Another year, another step to heaven’s gates, sonny
(x2)

[Verse 2]
Weaponize my youth ‘cause I still feel like a kid
Disheveled Heely’s were the only set of wheels I could get
Old money fat cats letting big bands swing
Take a sample of their riches, never clear it with them
Faded sketches on my skin are everlasting scribbles from when I was 22
Kinda jealous because death is right in front of you
Tryna simplify a new age that puzzles you
Keep guessing because you don’t have a fucking clue

[Verse 3]
Dirty ass bop’s in the Drive, then play it through the phonograph
Melt the wax cylinders, free the stolen tracks
Out-of-touch, touchy elders love to choke us all
They’ll have to pick their shattered dentures out their broken jaw

[Pre-Chorus]
Holy fuck, I gotta grow up
Let us live, let us live, uh
Let us live, let us live, yeah
Let us live, let us live, uh

[Chorus]
