Lyrics 
I told your parents I didn’t care
About those brand new piercings in your ear
It was a moment in time that I never seem to forget
When I knew what it meant to be a man who knew how to get it
And the blame and the shame while living off of low rent
And your Dad and your Mom couldn’t believe it happened.  

And we blazed and we wished that we were on our own
And got caught late night sneaking out of your home

 Once we got to where we loved/ I tried to find a steady job
And we dreamed of a house far away from those stifling phony plants. 

  It was a moment in time that I never seem to forget
When I knew what it meant to be a man who knew how to get it
And the blame and the shame while living off of low rent
And your Dad and your Mom couldn’t believe it happened.  

And we blazed and we wished that we were on our own
And got caught late night sneaking out of your home
And you grew cold and said that you wanted to go
Claimed I was the one who held you back on my own
I couldn’t believe the smack you talked and slammed the door

Now I’m riding out
Roads don’t ever fail
Hope you get what you want
Better not settle for fair.
