I am currently a sophomore high school student in Houston, Texas. I love writing songs and would like to become a musician when I am older.
A collection of my favorite lyrics;
Girl, it’s all a fucking joke, so just live it while you can
Suits were made for men, not boys
That little house on Ellis Drive
Is where I felt most alive
The oak tree covered that old Ford
I miss it lord, I miss it lord
This goes out to tenth graders at their parents house
Come home late for dinner, slam the door, and cuss their parents out
Twenty years later, you’re getting married and you’re a parent now
And that door slamming asshole is the only thing you care about
If I fall, if I die, know I lived it to the fullest
If I fall, if I die, know I lived and missed some bullets
I still love you like the very first time
Here in my mind, losing my friends
Fall on my face, do it again
You say, “How do you do?”
Man, how ‘bout you? Man, how 'bout you?
To be free, to be sold
To be killed, to be saved
In my head, I’m alo
