Ritalin (Born In America)

(album: J.A.C.K. - 2013)

I was born in America but
I feel like I was raised on Mars
No matter how hard I try
I still fell like I'm an alien cause
I was taught at a private school
My parents were scared of what I'd do
If I were bullied
Would I one day snap and bring drugs and guns
To school

If I told you once I told you too many times
I've got a real short temper and I'm out of my mind
Should've been medicated when I was young
But my mom choose to pray instead of whoring me out

I can't shake the feeling that I'm falling apart
I know I've been told I've got fire in my heart
But the world it brings me down
I'm not sure how much more I can take

I see the light at the end of the tunnel
(I see the light at the end of the tunnel)
I see the light at the end of the tunnel
(I see the light at the end of the tunnel)

I was born in a hospital
And I'll die in a hospital bed
Alone and happy
Will my kids be there
Will they be too busy

You're as fickle as you've ever been
You'll be gone just as sonn as the trend ends
I'll be playing
In front of 10 drunk fans god willing

Social media you know you're breaking my heart
I got a hundred thousand people telling me all their thoughts
It's not that I can't relate
I can't reply to each and every comment made
We're never good enough no matter how hard we try
There's always a better band, song
Make up your mind, do you love us for who we are
Or our skinny jeans and tattooed arms

I see the light at the end of the tunnel
(I see the light at the end of the tunnel)
I see the light at the end of the tunnel
(I see the light at the end of the tunnel)
I see the light at the end of the tunnel
(Whoa, whoa, whoa oh)
I see the light at the end of the tunnel
(Whoa, whoa, whoa oh)

I was born in America
I will die in a hospital

I see the light at the end of the tunnel
(I was born in America)
I see the light at the end of the tunnel

I see the light at the end of the tunnel
(I see the light at the end of the tunnel)
I see the light at the end of the tunnel
(Whoa, whoa)

I was born in America
I will die in a hospital

(Don't let me go)
I was born in America
(Don't let me go)
I will die in a hospital
