Your Neighborhood Lyrics by The Toxhards

Your Neighborhood

2021

[Intro]
"Well, where I grew up there was a small little town. You could grow up and you could be yourself, and you could be a kid and didn't have to worry."
"We were the first black family to move into an area called 'white haven'. And we lived on 'White Ville Cove.'"
"That southern hospitality that you hear about so, that is super nice to you, if you're white. And then the second that goes away-People say that LA is the area that puts on a front more than anything, but I'm probably certain that the south is the one that puts on the front more than anything. Cause that-that charm only goes so far."
"The biggest building in town was the first baptist church. The second biggest building was the second baptist church. And I went to high-school with people that actually think the world was flat."
"Being someone who immigrated from another country, being someone of like two worlds, to all of my Filipino, I'm too white. too white, too Americanized. But then when I come here it's just like, 'You're a harsh dude', or 'You're like too out there sometimes'. I don't understand what I can do to do this balance right sometimes. It kind of feels like you become two people. When you find people you are truly comfortable with, the two people melt away and it just becomes-"
[Verse 1]
You look out your window
Out at your neighborhood
You don't know if it might
You don't know it if could
It'd be such a shame if this whole place
Burnt to a crisp
[Verse 2]
Turn back into a child
When you smell the fresh-cut lawn
Feels like you're all the way back
Where you first come from
Run around til you're tired
Just like it's what you used to do
[Chorus]
But oh, how the people have changed
Oh, how they stayed just the same
The air that I breathed since I was a kid
Has gotten me high on a small-town wish
[Verse 3]
There's plenty of dangers in the theaters and the books
So burn all the witches
Lock up all the crooks
You wonder where the hell it could have all went wrong
[Verse 4]
Still wake up in the morning wincing at the clock
Neighbor still walks the same damn dog
Round and round the block
I swear to God the water's fine
It's just a touch of lead
[Chorus]
But oh, you know we're doing just fine
You know it's been this way all the time
A place of transgressions, erased from the maps
Never again am I ever going back
[Guitar solo]
[Bridge]
Oh, ain't it a shame
Oh, ain't that a shame
Ain't it shame
Oh babe, ain't it a shame
