lyrics

3. Misguided

Intro
Keep Dreaming
There’s too many misguided
Let’s stand up, Yea

Verse 1
The American dream isn’t always what it seems
Trained workers and slaves all for the opportunity
Lookin up to celebs
We treat em like some aliens
“oh look they shop and clean just like the rest of us” (wow)
Finding ways to stand out
I’m living on the edge
Chlostrophobic I can imagine when I’m living like them
Movie Wall-E shows the future of Americans
Nobody wants to get up and reach
They want it handed to them
Reading magazines because a hoe is on the cover
Seeing little girls wearing shorts shorter than their mothers
Everyone confused confusing me
They don’t know common sense
Forgetting higher ups are telling stars how to dress
Good monkey sees bad monkey do
Negative images on the news so negative you do
Elementary we’ve been taught how to work and think
History’s a mystery

Chorus
(Sample from Lincoln Park’s “Breaking The Habit”)
So I’m breaking the habit x 3
(Go Go Go Go Go Go Go Go!)
Tonight

Verse 2
Now I know who’s writing it
Everybody looks up to someone bigger than them
Everybody looks up to someone bigger than them
Why aren’t we promoting more good over drinks and fashion
Living vicariously
Through little girls used as sex symbols see
Once you’ve seen enough of something
You get used to it, it’s normal
Why these little kids are having little kids, abnormal
Blows my freakin mind like someone who really did it
Why don’t we start to question why things are the way they are
Even why they put perverted drawings on a kids wall
Monsters Inc.
Didn’t notice it you see
Either way it’s jacked up the message that they’re sending all out kin
Breakinng all the habits so the future shows a better end
When you hear an 8 yr old cussin up a storm
See why they’re misguided
Think it’s time to bring em home
Shouldn’t have been alone
I wanna see our youth grown

Chorus
(Sample from Lincoln Park’s “Breaking The Habit”)
So I’m breaking the habit x 3
(Go Go Go Go Go Go Go Go!)
Tonight

Outro
Sigh
Man…Keep Dreaming
