Travesty - Politics lyrics

[Verse 1] Here this goes - woke up early last night Had a feeling I was lost and they took away my sight Blinded by the glitz and the glam and the light But they told me I was special and they told me I should fight Told me I should follow how I feel and yeah I'm gonna keep it real Never gonna settle for another medal- I won't steal I won't slow it down because I'm here for real Listen what I'm ‘bout to say let's make a deal I ain't got opinions on up and coming artists But I got some feelings coming so just let me get it started Let me tell you they just autotunin' stay the same they're not improving Post so much it's so intrusive saying they won't make excuses Huh, Never knew Never knew I'd be here tryna better you Never knew I'd finally get to say this stuff, bracin' for that hate and stuff Making all you haters duck Makin all the fame come, but all of you stay dumb Tryna come and make fun, but the lyrics they sung Weren't even the right ones, I'm not sayin light ones But they're tryna bite ones, that you gon' despise ones Huh, then I came back Dropped a track that's real and they still say that Still laugh at the song, when it's not even on Writin jokes on my palm, but one day I'll be gone [Bridge] Think about it sometimes I write songs and I say what's on my mind But I lost my mind And I can't find it Tryna find it in a way that's not violent But you can't combine it [Hook] Man I'm so tired Tired of livin' like this Tired of gettin' like this Tired of waking every morning feeling down like this Tired of getting up- never get around like this Never frown like this Never sad like this Never mad like this Never mad like this But I never had this Man I'm so tired Tired of livin' like this Tired of gettin' like this Tired of waking every morning feeling down like this Tired of getting up- never get around like this Never frown like this Never sad like this Never mad like this Never mad like this But I never had this [Verse 2] Here this goes- woke up early last night Thought about my situation and I thought about my life Thought about what I've been given and the life that I've been livin' And the red the white the blue yeah that's the country that I live in Back in October - people asking me who I'm gonna vote for I'm only 15, but that won't stop me from venting I've been thinking bout it for a minute see the color of my skin It affects me every day - not just what I'm in See me on the street - think I voted for the man The one that's tearin' us apart, watch him call another ban He's just showing white power, the taste is getting sour Givin' me a feelin' that could shut me in for hours Takin my image and he's tearing it apart Making me look like a demon but he's really not smart He won't take us down- imma take that crown Imma throw it on the ground listen to that sound Hear it break - crash - shatter everywhere All his people gonna scatter everywhere We've got billions in office- lookin' so novice Now I'm so cautious, I just wanna stop this Never gonna change if we don't stand up Gonna stay the same way but I finally manned up I won't settle for some years, livin out all of my fears Lettin; people do injustice to the ones I call my peers Letting all these things fly when I know it's all wrong Don't blame it on me, just listen to this song I'm so tired of being seen as a gimmick I won't Take it anymore I'm never gonna sink- I float I'm a man that's on a mission this is not my last submission Gonna take what I was given flip it like it's never endin [Bridge] Think about it sometimes I write songs and I say what's on my mind But I lost my mind And I can't find it Tryna find it in a way that's not violent But you can't combine it [Hook] Man I'm so tired Tired of livin' like this Tired of gettin' like this Tired of waking every morning feeling down like this Tired of getting up- never get around like this Never frown like this Never sad like this Never mad like this Never mad like this But I never had this Man I'm so tired Tired of livin' like this Tired of gettin' like this Tired of waking every morning feeling down like this Tired of getting up- never get around like this Never frown like this Never sad like this Never mad like this Never mad like this But I never had this
