lirik lagu raised in books – the black and white years
[verse 1]
i am so suspicious
i admit it, i’m ill*fitted
honestly, i live like my life’s a swedish film
and i’ve been writing, then forgetting
all that i’ve written, by little bits
i shake my wits and start out again
and oh, oh my story
this is my story
[pre*chorus]
i fear the future, but i like the extra time
i curse the years, but i like to have a story to start from
[chorus]
i was born in this red state
to a pair of white, socialite, middle*class working folks
i was raised in books, raised in films, raised in church
i was brought up with the fear of god
the ever*there threat of h*ll
that punishment was terrible
i was terrified i’d die, they said i’d burn alive
[post*chorus]
they said i’d burn alive
if i did not do right
they said i’d burn alive
they said i’d burn alive
[verse 2]
and now i’m superstitious
i feel bitten by words i’ve written
honestly, i am waiting for something to come
and i’ve been ticking down the minutes
until it’s ended
tactically dodging your ill will
your will, your will, your will
oh, my, my stories
i’m telling stories
[pre*chorus]
i fear the future, but i’d like some extra time
i curse the years, but i like to have a platform to stand on
[chorus]
i was born in these cruel states
with a history of misery tied to me
my family tree k!lled and took
k!lled and took, k!lled and took
and it was all in the name of god
the manifest destiny
what god was it we aimed to please?
the one who had you terrified
who said he’d burn you alive
[post*chorus]
he said we’d burn alive
who said we’d burn alive
if we did not choose right
that we might burn alive
[outro]
i lost the fear of h*ll
i lost my fear of h*ll
i lost my fear of life, as well
i lost my fear of h*ll
lost my fear of h*ll
i lost my fear of life, as well
my fear of life, as well
i lost my fear of h*ll
lost my fear of h*ll
i lost my fear of life, as well
my fear of life, as well
i lost my fear of h*ll
lost my fear of h*ll
i lost my fear of life, as well
my fear of life, as well
i lost my fear of h*ll
lost my fear of h*ll
lost my fear of h*ll
i lost my fear of h*ll
