When I grow up I want the world to be happy Because as of now It is not For you see This world is shrouded in hatred And love can be bought All around conveyed love is being traded for physicality As the players get stronger And the girl She cried out to a diety She doesnt even believe in Because he left her Broken Bruised And Pregnant Leaving her for another girl One with a bigger rack And *** Even though she shook hers Every night on stage Baring her body for strangers Only so when she goes home He can unleash his rage So she gives him her money And he loosens his grip on her Freshly Dyed Hair Then he'll pretend to care As he invests her money in his new Jordans Instead of rehab for his Crack head lover. because he never loved her. If he did He wouldnt be saying "That baby isn't mine." So he can spend more time With the new girl by his side. A girl who's snorting coke And lets strangers hands Travel up her bruised thighs I Cant be happy seeing this world in this disgruntloed state Because A young boy hangs up A flowery dress in a closet full of dusty skirts and heels His moms attempt at making him "Normal" Because what you don't know is he was born a She But she wants to be a he And he doesnt know somewhere out there A he wants to be a she But they feel more alone As their parents threaten to send them to camps In failed attemps to make them "Okay" In the eyes of Their God So he lays in bed Blood pouring from his Self inflicted wounds One for every missed label As they call him a her Or he a she But they don't see it "It's just a pronoun right?" Maybe to you Because you haven't fought your whole life To be called something few are open eyed enough to see you as. But he can see it clearly as he pins back his hair and puts on his binder

Struggles of the Average American.
