Everybody wanna be somebody 'til they grab a shotty just to blow up

(E)
And luckily can't fuck with me 'cause I'm gonna win by myself
(E)
This is what I said, I wanna get ahead but can't hold the weight on my shoulders

Hanging by a thread while wishing I was dead but still live my life like a soldier
