PerryJhonz - The Other Kids (Remastered)

Everyday I see
Another part of me that I don’t wanna see
But I, just got to let it be
I try to push it down way in the deep
But it’s killing me
Breaking free
Thought I was empty
Guess now I feel
So differently
Than previously
I can’t admit
This energy
Is driving me, to make a change
Damn, why can’t I just be
I wish I could be like the other kids
They’re out here living their lives
I wish I could be like the other kids
Who have nothing to sacrifice
Why can’t I just be like the other kids
Cause worry doesn’t come to their minds
Please let me just be like the other kids
The other kids, oh
Stand tall, smile wide
Who gives a fuck what you’re tryna hide
Monotony, it’s gotta be
Acting happy for the fam cause they gotta see
You succeed
Guess it’s on me
I gotta grind so my folks can eat
And be at ease
A brand new house is what I’m tryna speak
Into existence
So listen
Shut ya damn mouth and hear my plea
I’m tryna be
The man they always wanted me to be
But that don’t come so easily
So I can’t lock my fucking knees
Better finish my fucking MREs
And not the bullshit get to me
I wish I could be like the other kids
They’re out here living their lives
I wish I could be like the other kids
Who have nothing to sacrifice
Why can’t I just be like the other kids
Cause worry doesn’t come to their minds
Please let me just be like the other kids
The other kids, oh
I wish I could be like the other kids
I wish I could be like the other kids
I wish I could be like the other kids
I wish I could be like
Can’t hide it, can’t deny it
Every fucking day I try to fight it
Can’t hide it, can’t deny it
Every fucking day I try to fight it
But I know, that that ain’t healthy
I just wish someone would fucking help me
I just wish someone would take the pain away
I wish someone would remind me
Of a better day
Back to when, I was fucking happy
Back to when everything wasn’t sappy
Back to when, I knew I was the boss
And no one had to tell me how to guard my thoughts
How to not be soft
How to just man up
How to give a fuck
And just like like your tough
But these kids out here are just too numb to feel
So I guess it ain’t bad
Being an (an emotional oil spill)
I wish I could be like the other kids
They’re out here living their lives
I wish I could be like the other kids
Who have nothing to sacrifice
Why can’t I just be like the other kids
Cause worry doesn’t come to their minds
Please let me just be like the other kids
The other kids, oh
