Not Allowed Lyrics

Music music was evil and I'm writing this song so I guess that makes me evil

I bet you'd call my lyrics satanic like you did that of Ozzy and the Beatles

Now heaven's harder to reach than it is for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle

I wasn't allowed to do anything if it wasn't under that glorified steeple

If you had it your way dad I'd be as innocent as when I was fetal

When I finally discovered the real world it was nearly lethal

It's not a sheltered paradise out there, there are good and bad people

I was the odd ball starting out behind when all my friends were equal

I had to figure my own shit out so my story would have a sequel

I'm imperfect with ink-stained skin and have smelly fecal

I'd have to sneak out with my friends to the round-a-bout cuz that was not allowed

I crank the music up so loud to drown it out but that was not allowed

I'm restricted chained down and bound I'm bound to fall into sin without

Having a cell phone you frowned about is out of the question not allowed

I can't describe the feeling that overtook me

To do so was never allowed

That feeling that at that you down when you found the phone that wasn't allowed

I thought I hid it so well below my pillow "dad, I know it's not allowed!"

Is what I told him "I borrowed it from the one homie you do allow

"And no that's not a piercing in my ear

It'll close if I take it out"

But don't tell him I pierced it out of spite cuz he said it's not allowed

Don't get me wrong I'm thankful I had a place to call my home and two parents revered

But if they were the angels they made themselves out to be I brought those Seraphim to Tears

Maybe you'll be disappointed if you hear this dad

But honestly I don't care if you hear

Cuz I spent countless hours tormented by the echos of your unbearable jeers

I may have had book-smarts at eighteen but to my mental health they were terrible years

When he was too proud to acknowledge my angst I learned to cherish my peers

I'd have to sneak out with my friends to the round-a-bout cuz that was not allowed

I crank the music up so loud to drown it out but that was not allowed

I'm restricted chained down and bound I'm bound to fall into sin without

Having a cell phone you frowned about, is out of the question not allowed

I'm not ashamed to say I disobeyed too much

But you were ashamed when you found out who was

My friend

You blew up the god shit like a bazooka

She wasn't a Christian so I got chewed out chewed up

And spit out

Constantly reminded that I'm a screw up

But now that I grew up, you suddenly eased your mood up

Either that or every damn one of my siblings knew just

What words would get your rule stuff to ease the fuck loosen up

I'd have to sneak out with my friends to the round-a-bout cuz that was not allowed

I crank the music up so loud to drown it out but that was not allowed

I'm restricted chained down and bound I'm bound to fall into sin without

Having a cell phone you frowned about is out of the question not allowed
