You Tell Me

You Tell Me

Used to be someones baby

used to be someones child

 used to be someones brother

before emotions running wild

Used to be so creative

used to be having fun

When life would put you down

you would be waiting for the sun

I'm not gonna judge or make a fuzz

about responsibility

Sometimes we struggle, fight against the odds

and sometimes they can be beat

 You can choose to complain and remain letting everything drive you insane

or you can set yourself free and let the world see that maybe you disagree

So what's it gonna be?

What's in it for you?

What ya gonna do?

You tell me!

Now who dictates the rules?

How far will you go?

And do you even know?

You tell me!

Collecting empty bottles

to get you through the day

 and always high on something

whatever makes you feel okay

Tell me do you remember

getting up off the floor

as soon as possible

you would be outta there for sure

I'm not saying I'm the one who knows

exactly what is good for you

A long time ago I know there were

a lot of things he put you through

You can choose to give up hiding under your

shell of "whateverness"

Or you can pick yourself up and let the world know that maybe it's time to let go

So what's it gonna be?

What's in it for you?

What ya gonna do?

You tell me!

Now who dictates the rules?

How far will you go?

And do you even know?

You tell me!
