Forget It Lyrics

'78 Thunderbird in baby blue

Airing out the cig smoke 'cause now they got a baby too

She was going to work late to bartend she off at 2:00

He was in the crib topping up another vodka too

Another night of yelling smell the liquor on their breath

Glass shattered on the counter drywall might catch a left

Seem there really ain't no end to what they've got that's on they chest

Come tomorrow night then they just gon' repeat like every step

Lower middle-class depression drown they hopes and take they dreams

And they don't give you remedies that's why they end up fiends

Play guitar on that plaid patterned couch in only jeans

Strumming notes that seem to contradict the ugly of the scene

Existing in between where history ain't written down

Running from the pain but that shit followed to a different town

Hoping for their son to be somebody but couldn't tell him how

Now all he got are scars and that old pistol that you kept around

Forget it

Yellow street lights that drown the stars out of your view

Forget it

See we could be like them but couldn't walk in they shoes

Forget it

We never had time through all the bad times and land mines

Forget it

This only matters in memories that are dying with you

Forget it

It all just cycles through grew up with food insecurity so now consume

Same thing with liquor trying to heal these wounds

Seeking God hoping he can heal him too

Left him in the dark so now his lighter's underneath a spoon

Sneaking trying to get a fix and ending up just broke again

Just putting up these walls until nobody knows the code and shit

Clearing 40k and trying to budget bills and coke with it

Mortgage on a home but found the interest rate was hopelessness

Dying on the sofa pissed pants vomit on his lips

A couple lives destroyed a couple years 'til no one notices

It's in the DNA it's nature when you never nurture it

They advertise meaning but it's bogus when you purchase it

They box up all your shit it's kicked around until it's thrown out

A couple coats of paint and they forget this was your old house

You wonder where you'd go when you went cold and still don't know now

Wonder where you'd go when you went cold and still don't know now

Forget it

Yellow street lights that drown the stars out of your view

Forget it

See we could be like them but couldn't walk in they shoes

Forget it

We never had time through all the bad times and land mines

Forget it

This only matters in memories that are dying with you

Forget it
