Introduction:

 CmEm  A  G 
verse 1
 Cm                                             Em                             A                                         G 
My intelligence is strewn on the floor on papers that have been graded before
 Cm                                             Em                             A                                         G 
And your value is on the line if the score you have is lower than mine
 Cm                                             Em                             A                                         G 
I get so crazy thinking, that I could be making something that is worth for a while
 Cm                                             Em                             A                                         G                           Gm 
But instead I have to memorize phrases to put in my head that I cant comprehend
 D                                           B7                               Em                           G 
Foolish kid you?re the worst, cant converse, die in thirst for love
 D                                           B7                               Em                           G                                       Gm 
Wait till you?re older uncover the earth until then ill conserve you and preserve you
verse 2
 Cm                                         Em                     A                                       G 
My personality is like a cavity, denying me from the a sense of reality
 Cm                                           Em                   A                                       G 
And your face has been marked a disgrace by the standards we use as formality
 Cm                                       Em                     A                                         G 
I wish that I could live in, another world to begin, where I am free to be me
 Cm                                       Em                       A                                         G 
But instead I have to listen to words that are said to brainwash my soul
verse 3
 Cm                                       Em                     A                               G 
My knowledge extends beyond the criterias that you grade me on
 Cm                                         Em                     A                               G 
And your words they?ll never be heard because they are not preferred
 Cm                                         Em                   A                                 G 
I cannot stop clinging to the past that?s digging into my memories, into my bones
 Cm                                           Em                   A                               G                         Gm 
But instead I?m told to think ahead, so that I can peacefully grow old
 D                                         B7                           Em                               G 
Foolish kid you?re the worst, cant converse, die in thirst for love
 D                                         B7                             Em                               G                                       Gm 
Wait till you?re older uncover the earth until then ill conserve you and preserve you

 D                                     B7                                   Em                             G 
Foolish kid you?re the best, Im impressed by your messed up mind
 D                                       B7                                   Em                             G 
You're not designed to be defined by the rules you can build your own reality
