My Friends Lyrics by Islander

It’s Not Easy Being Human

2018

Yeahhhhhhh!

They call me the bad guy!
And I'm not playing around
I Tell it like is, once was lost
Now found. Tear my heart. Ripped apart
Built for grimy sounds. And While you were asleep, I was making my rounds

They try to tell me what to say
And when to say it
It's counterfeit, it's plastic and a game that I'm not playin

Ughhhhh!

I'm a conformed nonconformist

Wahhhh!!!

And my ruler is not my self

I'll lay down my life for my friends
(I’ll lay my life down)
I'll take the hit again and again
(Again and again and again, and again)
I’ll lay my life down for my friends
(For my friends)
I'll take the hit again and again
It’s not pretend

I stay close to mines. I work hard for my money. I'm not a perfect man, but gotta God that loves me. Oh, but now you can find me in the rolling stone, but that don't mean jack give me my microphone

They try to tell me what to say
And when to say it
It's counterfeit, it's plastic and It's a game that I'm not playin’

They don’t want none
They don’t want none

They don’t want none
They don’t want none!

They can’t pay my dues
They can’t wear my shoes

They don’t want none
They don’t want none

They shoulda kept their cool
They should have stayed in school

They don’t want none
They don’t want none

You can’t pay my dues
Youcan’t wear my shoes

They don’t want none
They don’t want none

You should have stayed in school
You should have stayed in...

Ughhhh!

SCHOOL!

I'll lay down my life for my friends
(I’ll lay my life down)
I'll take the hit again and again
(Again and again and again, and again)
I’ll lay my life down for my friends
(For my friends)
I'll take the hit again and again
It’s not pretend
