It    hit me I got everything I need

My one heart felt too much from the start
I've seen people come and go
Living large and living low
You can build up your walls sitting on death row
Let the curtain fall on your murdered soul
You can wash it all down swallow your story
Get smacked off your head go down in drumroll glory
You won't solve it committing self inflicted crime
Go on pull the trigger this will be the last time

It hit me I got everything I need (x2)

I speak of the truth the truth of the heart
Like a desperate thirst in a raging drought
Hey youth time flies by
Theres an everlasting battle for eternal life
I love a man from California 
He's the prettiest thing we got the same disorder
The way you feel it's OK I don’t give a shit anyway

It hit me I got everyone i need (x2)

Are you ready to be liberated
On this sad side city street
Well the birds have been freed from their cages
I got freedom and my youth

Yeah I got freedom and my youth
