Standards Lyrics by ​cloudwatch

Vermont

2020

[verse 1]
Shoving standards down my throat
Push so far down I might choke
It's like force-feeding a baby expectations are a joke

Man I thought I could be me in the claimed "land of the free"
Still fighting for basic human rights that shit should be guaranteed

I'm still dodging boomer hate
Shit we shouldn't have debate
How can we let their beliefs
Fuel the choices that we make

Fuck I'm living I got skin
I'm alive, I can breathe in
There's nothing different about me except who I sleep and wake up with

I'm a human I got eyes
I see through thе basic lies
I'm a monster for fucking love, and I fuckin' lovе my guys

Throw your bricks and them slurs
Cause fuck they are just words
You degenerate throwing hate stop judging who I date

I'm tired of this fight
Stop stealing our human rights
Stop acting like you know me
And stop ruining my life

Stop forcing your beliefs
On people who don't care
Stop preaching our destruction and calling it unfair

[verse 2]
Bitch, Keep hatin' on my skin
Degrading it, flamin' it, paying it
Painting it red with blood
Cause ain't no bitch paving it and Ain't no bitch saving it, from above

Standard issue hating it
Acting like an ass, bitch get some class
Before you start talkin shit, make sure you can pay your rent

Quick to call me fag, no don't take it back
I claim that word, cause the less shit that offends me
The less you're fucking worth

And the less I'll fuckin hurt
Dodging hateful words cause previous century crime
Has no place on this earth, fuckin het

Fuckin' bet, I'll let a fuckin' het
Choose what rights I fuckin' get
Call it wit, I call bullshit on our government

How do we let them permit
This genocide of human lives cause kids die every day
A hundred thousand different ways

Ranging from murder, hanging, and self annihilation
This situation is in dire need of fixation

Human lives are burning
Dying in the gurney
And the blood is on your hands
So you better fuckin hurry

[Chorus]
Standards, down my throat
Standards, down my throat (Throat)

Standards, down my throat
Standards, down my throat (Throat)

[outro]
Standards, down my throat
Standards, down my throat (Throat)

Standards, down my throat
Standards, down my throat (Throat)
