civil war (lavender town)

civil war

it's a fuckin' civil war

we be aimin' for the peace

so what we killin' for?

anymore

what we even livin' for

they be murderin' for peace

that is a civil war

you know they be lookin' at me right now

like a pair of scissors

man

better pipe down

i been tryin' to write my essays

tryin' to write a wet page

i could construct it right now

blue's clues

man

i think i gotta find out

every question

man

i really wanna hide out

or i wanna drop out

maybe learn a lot 'bout

my shit before i wait to see it die out

damn

i just wanna go along

i'm holdin' strong

i know i'm not the boldest one

i'm old enough

i'm growin' up

bars are sick

they're throwin' up

they know what's up

i'm in the really big leagues

like i got drafted

before the year-round hype over march madness

wanna get it with these girls

throwin' down like it's no big deal

like we takin' liberal arts classes

they be sayin' damn then really got savage

no

but unlike you

i am not average

i'm neither above or below it

but who gives a fuck because i still got past it

i do my job and i do my work

tryin' to connect the dots of the universe

tryin' to fight for the peace

for a piece of the people

and equality for the humans first

civil war

it's a fuckin' civil war

we be aimin' for the peace

so what we killin' for?

anymore

what we even livin' for

they be murderin' for peace

that is a civil war

civil war

and i can name a lot of things that nobody else would say to ya

and this ain't a fuckin' game so just know that i won't play with ya

so y'all better go ask meek if he'll pray for ya

'cause i won't pray for ya

i'm addicted to the screen and the validations

of people who are thirteen and in another nation

i've been looking for the sender of a message

or the commenter on a video

it seems to be the worst

like internet track meets

they erased it

look at this shit

i've just recently made it

that how it goes when i'm breathin' and breathin'

acheivin' and keep on succeedin'

they hate it

you're lousy and can't breathe when you smoke

bro

you doubt me

but you'll see where i go

so

allow me to break free from my own dome

together we need to believe in my own zone

things become intense in the heat of the ozone

it's surroundin' me

i need to go home

so

can i pretty please just be al-alone

nobody to retweet

delete on my home phone

i ain't gon' hop on that drug trend

when they all claimin' they love it

i ain't gon' hop on that loud trend

they all know i ain't about it

they cannot take this away until they have something to say now

you cannot order this shit on a takeout

all of these bitches is fake now

civil war

it's a fuckin' civil war

we be aimin' to the peace

so what we killin' for?

anymore

what we even livin' for

they be - they be - they be

mur - murderin'

civil war

civil war

it's a fuckin' civil war

we be aimin' to the peace

so what we killin' for?

anymore

what we even livin' for

they be murderin' for peace
