Dumb
(专辑: Straight Outta Oz - 2016)
Yo I
been writing songs since the
first grade Been running from the
truth since my first fade To get big cars, to make big stars It takes big scars, better get a
first aid Dumb songs are the
first blade No heart, but they're charting on the
first day How you stay brave, when they throwing you the
worst shade? Ones with the
talent are the
worst paid Anyway, if I
have blue button eyes and blonde hay Would I
make the
magazine on the
best page? Be the
leading man, if I
was less gay? If I
was a
woman would you try to give me less pay? I
could sing for you, but you prefer rap Ask God why he made me out of burlap Porcelain glass is a
hall pass where I'm from And I
don't know about you, but I
think that's dumb I
think that's dumb We the
backbone of the
green city Never been a
model but I've seen plenty Young men and women, tryna fit in Tryna get thin, but skinny don't mean pretty Rainbow, bright colors in the
air though Color on the
air, but it's rare though The
proof is right there though It's not fair though, but they swear "No, what does he know? He just a
scarecrow!" Tell me something Why we counting blessings if they don't count? Yeah, the
show is sold out but they sold out And I
would rather walk in my shoes 'til the
sole's out Yellow brick road, less traveled That's the
old route My money built the
man a
green glass palace Tweedledum ain't what they call it if you ask Alice Why slum, under his green thumb Waiting for crumbs Cause I
don't know about you, but I
think that's dumb I
think that's dumb Don't find me, I
got my own lane forming Don't mind me, I'm just brainstorming Do you suppose we could sell our shows And our clothes, with no big booty crows in our videos Will the
man never stand for the
people Will we demand that our love should be legal Will the
land never treat the
greens equal Will the
fight that they lost become the
sequel Cause I'll march till it's done, to the
beat of my own drum Cause there's a
fight to be won Stand on this post 'til I'm numb, at least I'm standing for some And that we can overcome Cause I
don't know about you, but I
think that's dumb I
think that's dumb
