Lyrics
Underrated, overstated, real life
insocrated, facts are of just real life
Exploitated and so jaded, real life
Rest as conscience masquerading
jumping and I hope you notice
when i said its not okay
and i know you're ready
(into the rip i'm heading out again
over my head i can't get out of it)
smile enough you know this story
turn your head the other way
(into the rip i'm heading out again
over my head i can't get out of it)
into the rip i'm heading out again
over my head i can't get out of it
Underrated, overstated, real life
insocrated, facts are of just real life
Exploitated and so jaded, real life
Rest as conscience masquerading
All the backqard thoughts you're having,
got the lowdown, evacuate
the golden book is running late
(into the rip i'm heading out again
over my head i can't get out of it)
into the rip i'm heading out again
over my head i can't get out of it
into the rip i'm heading out again
over my head i can't get out of it
real life
and I hope you notice
when i said its not okay
Those backward you're having,
the lowdown, evacuate
and I hope you notice
when i said its not okay
Those backward thoughts you're having,
the lowdown, evacuate
and I hope you notice
when i said its not okay
Those backward you're having,
the lowdown, evacuate
Into the rip
