2nd Period: Shoot Down The Stars Lyrics

'81 was the year shit hit the fan in a major way
A sad day for aspiring artists
Almost 20 years after the fact I'm still on my hustle
Diggin' graves for aspiring artists
Pushing daises up
And never compromise the arts and make a crowd clap
Shit's been on since the first show
But we turn feces to fertilizer
So when you diss it's just food for the flowers to grow
Sold 15 plus out of backpacks, no trunks
Too young to drive
But live hip hop
And the kids are upstate kids that thought rap was past tense, hence the last name
Got the game for playing basements and such and making songs that our friends love
And when the fish bowl got too small to hold the goldfish
We filled our gills with water and *blooped!* that mother fucker like

So take a step back
And a breath in
Let it out now
Put your chin up
You can do it tiger
You a man now
Your only dream, it's time to do the best you can now

We bring ourselves down
And build ourselves up with disappointment
How fragile we are
So fragile we are, we just don't show it
We'll shake up this town
And shoot down the stars we'll all enjoy this
So sexy we are
So sexy we are, we just don't know it

This is what you wanted right?
How many nights was spent pouring out your guts dummy?
How many punishments endured for fucking up in school?
How many teachers proved wrong by writing songs instead?
My point exactly
But you knew you had a spark, did you?
Something conducive to the dreams your pop's dreams lent you
Stay focused when nothing seemed to make sense
You're still a person with that Cassius Clay confidence
Sometimes you step in the shit, that's the McCoy in you
You learn to be a man without losing the boy in you
Just do your thing man

So take a step back
And a breath in Gym Class Heroes - 2nd Period: Shoot Down The Stars - http://motolyrics.com/gym-class-heroes/2nd-period-shoot-down-the-stars-lyrics.html
Let it out now
