lyrics

Young man you backed me up into the corner I’m not older
Can’t stand the faces that lie on my shoulder
Make me shudder
All my life they said I’ve got news for you
Man I bet you do
Said best put that smile on or else I’ve got news for you
Oh how cruel

For now I’ll give that smile
Oh for just a little while

They like to say they want change
The more that I speak they stay the same
Watch your tongue they’ll yank those chains
For now I’ll give that smile
Oh for just a little while

Shaved 10 years off my life but I ain’t feeling bad
Tried to tie me up just like they did my dad
There’s a decision to be made if you wanna feel alright
Some of us born to create some others born to fight
Only say my name if you wanna be my friend
Bloody caves I’ve met and they say the same
Shit my momma left those voices made her mad
And they never went but now she’s coming back
For now I’ll give that smile
Oh for just a little while

Dancing in a foreign plain
Where I don’t save face
Stay close by your phone
I’ll call you when I’m coming home
45 to 51
Don’t let them take your fun
Don’t let them take your fun
Don’t let them take your fun

They like to say they want change
The more that I speak they stay the same
Watch your tongue they’ll yank those chains
For now I’ll give that smile
Oh for just a little while
For now I’ll give that smile
Oh for just a little while
