martyr 4 hire Lyrics

We argue about the cup

And how we see it filled

But I want to book a conversation

With the one who's filling it

Where did she get her degree

What are the necessary skills

Baby, I'm no an9el

But in this economy

I could be

Let's climb the roof of our old high school

Since it's the highest point in town

It's furthest from the godforsaken ground

With a four pronged plan

A ladder and grins to line our jaws

Now we're barely rebels

Check my bio for the cause

It used to be beautiful

In this part of town

Then all my friends left

But I'm still here

Bloody feet nailed to the ground

And I'm moving still

But it's a painful carousel

With every turn, I cool a burn

But the fire's all around

While we're up here

Tell me what your white friends did last week

Oh, Friday smoking pot, Sunday fishing with his dad

Us, we drove around just to find something to eat

And the car is usually silent

But I wear headphones when it's not

Thank god 4 headphones

Or whoever invented headphones when it's not

It used to be beautiful

In this part of town

And then my brother left but I still stand

My feet nailed to the ground

And I'm moving still

But it's really fucking slow

Are you a martyr cause you have to be

Or is this only just for show

And what are you working for

To hear her crying

Through the window, through the door

And I wish that you would say it

Before I also run away

What are you working for

Gardenia climbing through your window

From the porch

Were you young and unafraid

Did your worries wash away

I don't need an empire

Let's light these bills on fire

Show me who says I need more

I'll burn that dirty liar

I don't need a big house,

With cherry hills to roam

Relinquish me this family curse

All I need is all I need
