LYRICS:

CHORUS
What’s a solid foundation to a force of nature?
I’ve been holding down the fort, unfortunately yours is vacant.
Forks up in my road, I don’t know but I hope they take me
Far away from this place, man I need a vacation

Hallejuah

First they boo & then they wish they knew ya
Who the hell are you to tell me business, bitch you ain’t my lawyer
Buying everything they selling, oh well that’s consumers for ya
Who’s to say that freedom ain’t free?  I do enjoy it.

Holding down the fort
Hallejuah, Hallejuah
Holding down the fort
Hallejuah, Hallejuah
Holding down the fort
Hallejuah, Hallejuah
Holding down the fort
Hallejuah, Holla
 
VERSE
Let it take its course
What you let go of comes back
Oh yes, well of course
It’s a cycle, I run laps
I’m a psycho though, fun fact
Stereotyping this white kid:  Like im packing knives in my lunch bag
 
Bringing guns to the school dance
Im tired of getting laughed at
Put my life into a blog post
All my feelings up in a hashtag
Suicide note in my last text
Kill my Mom and my Dad’s next
Think Im mad like Im 19 with anxiety cause I ain’t had sex yet.
 
I digress cause that was a hypothetical of me describing a white millennial
To an extreme, in a stream of thought cause I don’t write cause I write eligible
What’s the price of living in stereo?
My scenario is that my mind’s at peace but my hearts gotta speak so I ride the beats like a BICCENTENIAL
 
That don’t really work, ignorance is bliss
Im convinced, pain don’t really hurt, if it’s worth the risk
I’ve been pissed, thrown down in the dirt, ain’t concerned a bit
Watch me hit the curb, I ain’t scuurrred, watch me skrrrt the whip
 
BRIDGE
I don’t want nothing unless I can get it myself
m-m-m-my myself
I don’t want nothing unless I can get it myself
m-m-m-my myself
I don’t want nothing unless I can get it myself
m-m-m-my myself
I don’t want nothing unless I can get it myself
Yeah
