Lyrics
"Generation Lame"
By: Heavy AmericA
Lyrics by: Michael Thomas Seguin, (c) 2021 / ASCAP
Livey up the beat
Hear the stompin’ feet
Too much hate and violence in the streets
Fakes and liars this way
Ain’t changing minds that way
Tear gas de jour man, ain’t it sweet
Take the pen boy, sign your name boy
Everything you dream on a silver chain
Ya’ll gotta remember
We’re all in it together
Don’t believe the news man, that ain’t me
Fools and thieves this way
Haters profit that way
Feeding on the feckless and the weak
Take the pen boy, sign your name boy
Everything you dream on a silver chain
Just take the pen boy, sign your name boy
Give it all away, generation lame
Melt me down, seek my face
Desperate for a dream, you made haste
Was it all worth it?
Twenty one grams for your fame
You took it all and gave nothing
Nothing’s just what you’ve gained
Gain!, Lame, was it (worth it)
Was it all a game
Generation lame man
Your just like clay
They shape you everyday
A little everyday
Generation lame man
Just for today
