Be Like Me - LOWBORN

Pick me up

Off the floor

Where I fell asleep

The night before

Find my clothes

Waking up

Chasing every dream never helped me much

Stumble out into the street

A beggar’s all I’ll ever be

Find a new place to sleep

Living everyday with my heart on my sleeve

Don’t you wanna be like me

Both my pockets and my stomach’s empty

Don’t you wanna be like me

Lowborn lowborn lowborn

Cause I know I’m just a soul that can’t be saved

I like throwing my life away

I’ll keep singing

Hey

Don’t you wanna be like me

When all I’ll ever be is lowborn

Hiding out in every song

Building careers where they don’t belong

Writing down where I went wrong

And scripting the words that they’d all sing along

So I’ll take take

A picture of the prophets living

Fake fame

Off the backs of people dying to live

If I quit it leaves me empty

But every dream just leaves me tipsy

I’ll just wait and I’ll pray

Hoping and begging for change

With these wars that I made

Battles I’ve waged

Escape is just a life away

The pain they portray

The lies that they play

Living like they earned that stage
