This song is for the unappreciated over achievers
Those who won't buy drinks for elitest retrievers.
To those who wear a uniform with their friends' band on their chest
with clothes that are ripped from shows that were the best.
To them who raise a pabst blue to the moon
In rememberance of shows that were ruined.
We were promised something else
but when we were told, we could tell.
This verse is to be played from the basements to the bars
no guest list or green rooms or tv stars.
Just faces on the scene that rule facebook with their memes
in hopes your intervene digitally you drama queen
This line is meant to be heard in the subconscious
of the sound guy sleeping in the hopes that none will notice.
It's point as loud as the punk band playing
their new EP that they'd been delaying.
We're not rock stars from LA (living in the valley)
We're just people in this country (tryna see the next day)
We all know this isn't gonna make us rich
we've got girl friends and boyfriends who whine and bitch
how they're home, all alone
getting stoned and they just wanna bone.
And, we're at practice, cutting our teeth
planting seeds for the heights we want to reach.
As if this wasn't me when you met me
without supporting me...
I cannot be.
