Such a Shame - Through The Roots

No, I don’t want to live that way

People think it’s cool to be cold these days

They’ve got it all mixed up doing the strangest things

So many hearts that are filled with hate

Man it’s such a shame

Yea I hate to say it

This generation is so californiacated

No disrespect to my west coast natives

But this cultures being poorly demonstrated

And You can call me crazy

But I see through your bullshit

You act like it’s ok that the world can’t get along

But I could never fake like there ain’t nothing wrong

No I don’t want to live that way

People think it’s cool to be cold these days

They’ve got it all mixed up doing the strangest things

So many hearts that are filled with hate

Man it’s such a shame

Think you’re in heaven but you’re living in hell

Strip away the mask that you wear so well

This material world, gotta have what’s new

The possession that you own end up owning you

You can call me crazy

But I see through your bullshit

You act like it’s ok that the world can’t get along

I could never fake like there ain’t nothing wrong

No I don’t want to live that way

People think it’s cool to be cold these days

They’ve got it all mixed up doing the strangest things

So many hearts that are filled with hate

Man it’s such a shame

Identity’s found when you dig with in

Too many begging lord can I please fit in

Start being yourself, stop counterfeit-in

It’s a beautiful thing to be different

You’re one of a kind so why pretend

Don’t get mixed up your the perfect blend

Start living for you stop livin' for them

Talking bout the ones yea those called friends

Might have beauty but they lack substance

Rather watch you sink than watch you swim

Keep close the ones that will keep you afloat

You can’t dive deep in the shallow end

Playin their games living by their rules

Tryin to be them though you know it ain’t you

Now all the mirror reflects is a fool

Come to find out it ain’t so cool to be cool

You can call me crazy

But I see through your bullshit

You act like it’s ok that the world can’t get along

But I could never fake like there ain’t nothin' wrong

No, I don’t want to live that way

People think it’s cool to be cold these days

They’ve got it all mixed up doing the strangest things

So many hearts that are filled with hate

Man it’s such a shame

I guess you don’t know me

Cuz if you did then you’d know what I’m about

I’ve got all I need

This california dream I could live with out

You’re acting so happy

You’ve worn out that smile on your mouth

If I wanted to I could be just like you but

No, I don’t want to live that way

People think it’s cool to be cold these days

They’ve got it all mixed up doing the strangest things

So many hearts that are filled with hate

Man it’s such a shame
