teen spirit (dirty fireworks) - byron henderson lyrics

[intro: byron]
sometimes, no, often people don’t have guidance because the parents just let them grow up. they don’t really teach them things that they need to survive in today’s world. we were taught the exact same things nearly every school year. everyone can’t be a scientist, or english major. a big problem is that we weren’t taught how to survive as adults. we don’t really even know how to treat each other. like what?

[verse: byron]
irony is thorn in my backside
see, i’ve been contemplating on whether to backslide
dawg listen, i’m that tired of beefing with people
i’ve never been a mathematician, so we don’t see equal
dealing with this in my condition will probably be my downfall
and i would love to clown y’all back, but desperation was never my cup of tea
i get it, i’m self destructive
but listen, they trust in me when i’m spitting
reluctantly, i don’t fit in with none of the other children
what’s bugging me is they should know i’ve got the right away
sat marina down with pen and paper, told her write away
arms cleared up; never again, i put the knife away
but people in the city here will still take your life away
now i was thinking, as much as i want to be with my best friend
i keep on getting close to k!lling folks
though i was level headed, seeing you break down embedded a feeling that’s telling us both there isn’t hope
it’s never enough to want to be productive
we took a leap of faith to leave the fake beneath the rubble
regrets about failing seventh grade, i have none
cause without marina, my parents wouldn’t even have a son
teen spirit

[pre-hook: byron]
my whole life they doubted me
but that’s okay, as long as my best friend’s proud of me

[hook: byron]
they can wish the worst on me; they can wish a he-rs- on me
that ain’t my concern as long as i can die worth something
dirty fireworks if i choose to leave this earth before i blow up
that’s reality without a care to throw up

[verse: byron]
so you know what?
i have a lot to say about certain issues i grew up with
like how my anger issues are eruptive
or watching both sides of my family dig ditches, without dying
but wonder why we become corrupted
so now should i worry about cops, blacks, whites, or god just being overdue?
only because some have grew up to become k!llers, while thinking they’ll walk over you
predator without his mask, that’s the overview
people usually ask why i’m so sheltered, as if they don’t see us dropping like flies
besides, i have one friend and she’s at home so i can’t help it
some want war, and some want peace while things swelter
no one but marina believed in me till “the minimum” literally
i mean, i ain’t have a soul backing me
but being me, i wasn’t offended at all
i’m a product of me, and if that’s offensive to y’all, then so be it
highly aware of the drama they’re seeking
such a thin line to blur, and what a time to be reaching
tension’s high, they’re convinced that if i ain’t beneath them
ain’t no room for them to shine, foolish pride, you’re a lie
everything was fine back when i was thinking suicide
that just goes to show, unity is something you imply when your back’s against the wall cause no one makes it out alive
took a step outside and met the devil in disguise
homicide all around me
man, it’s unbelievable
but as long as i’m breathing this dream is still achievable
so nah, i don’t fear cops; there’s no reason to
cause if i’m truly made in his image, then what would jesus do?

[outro: marina]
oh my god {laughs}
