Thought when I grew up I would be the same as the ones who gave me my last name I would not give in, I would not partake In the same old drugs everyone else takes I'm better than that I'm better than that I'm living my life, so I go to heaven and never come back But look where I'm at Look where I'm at I'm living the life that I said I wouldn't, I wanna go back I used to call my mom every Sunday So she knew her love wasn't far away But now I'm all fucked up out in L.A. 'Cause I care more about what other people say I used to not take chances with God's name But it's been so long since I last prayed And now I'm all fucked up and my heart's changed 'Cause I care more about what other people say And now I'm all fucked up and my heart's changed 'Cause I care more about what other people say Yeah-yeah-yeah 'Cause I care more about what other people say I wish I could shelter the boy I knew From the constant hell I put him through 'Cause I'm all grown up and I'm black and blue I could use some tape, I could use some glue I'm better than that I'm better than that I should be living my life So I go to heaven and never come back I used to call my mom every Sunday So she knew her love wasn't far away But now I'm all fucked up out in L.A. 'Cause I care more about what other people say I used to not take chances with God's name But it's been so long since I last prayed And now I'm all fucked up and my heart's changed 'Cause I care more about what other people say And now I'm all fucked up and my heart's changed 'Cause I care more about what other people say Yeah-yeah-yeah 'Cause I care more about what other people say Yeah-yeah-yeah 'Cause I care more about what other people say
