I watched you fighting
I didn’t love you, but it’s beautiful
‘Cause now I recognize your purpose was beyond me
Now I want you to know that the beauty I see
Is the rebellion you're not looking for an excuse for
I guess I must’ve died
Somewhere up in heaven
‘Cause see, my heart turns cold
But I’m hot as fuck all over everywhere else
We’ll find a way to make a way out of no way or fake it ‘til it’s finally over
Am I supposed to care so much
I didn’t make the rules
I’m not even sure there’s supposed to be any
I guess that’s just how it goes when you grow up with Michael Jordan, PJ Harvey, Dennis Rodman, Kurt Cobain… people like that
Well guess what?
Nike don’t love you, Mtv don’t love you
They just tryin’ to sell you something you can’t afford
They’ll make your depression look cool if they have to
Right, Ali? He said this
The whole thing’s crumbling down and you just sit there trying to sell your chump ass on the same damn thing that got you sick in the first place
We never cross the line
Enough to win or die
‘Cause they just keep moving it forward
One step ahead on us
We’ll find a way to make a way out of no way or fake it ‘til it’s finally over
Am I supposed to care so much
Y’all stop tryin’ to be your idols
They’re the ones that told you that
Start doin’ what’s now
And stop bullshittin’ your fake romantic past
We’ll find a way to make a way out of no way or fake it ‘til it’s finally over
Am I supposed to care so much
Am I supposed to care so much
