The Rose Parade

[Verse 1] Waking up somewhere in Ladera, next to a girl with smeared mascara Her looks say "groupie" first name Sarah, another victim of the Art Goon Era Holy fuck...what am I becoming? Mama said I need to go and do something stunning With my life, instead I seat here soaking by the fireplace Breaking down weed trying to find a higher place Addicted to porno in cyber space Eternal sunshine 'round tight mind erase God damn sometimes I be forgettin, every lesson learned in the college room setting I didn't make the grade so I didn't give a damn Intelligent but lazy, they couldn't understand What it's like to be better than everyone you know, or what it's like to make a few fucking racks of a show Pockets on swole, ego on overload Drugs all around and pray I don't overdose But if Ido i'll leave a beautiful corpse, bury me in my tux with a carton of 'ports [Hook] Life ain't nothing but a rose parade Everything that we see artificially made And we all line up to take a look at the floats But why the fuck would I want to stay behind this rope? nope [Verse 2] Daddy was right, I never do listen but the blind old cunt couldn't really see my vision Credit score low when I never held the job down Snacking on xany bars just so I could calm down My friends question why I'm so off-beat Or why I choose to write my name in wet concrete Dreamers sit back all day and romanticize Doers fuck girls get gwop then they vandalize Burn it all down, pissing on the ashes, and watch her deepthroat for some backstage passes God damn, is that how mama raised you? Or is everything I do, just amaze you? Fuck paid dues, I'm too punk son I rather fuck a white girl with a trust fund And blow her dough instead of spending mine, one of a kind Young Rap God with a shrine, yeeh Ricardo! Get the goddamn hovercraft...the whores are after our money again... [Hook]
