about

This song is about myself, my childhood, my family, friends.

My birthday is actually December 4th.

lyrics

i was born on the 4th of july. no i wasn’t i am telling lies. i was born in the midst of a storm, to a family, where i got my name from. i was born with determined eyes but i lost them, inside a goodbye. i was born with my own two hands, to make something better than i am. and i was born with my own two ears, to hear everything i don’t wanna hear. they give me the strength i need to write it down and sing honestly. i was born with a great escape plan. drawing maps under the house where me and friends could run around and leave this. ‘cause we had nowhere else to go. i was born in mysterious ways, because you didn’t love him and she never said to stay. i was born never feeling safe. so i’m leaving this time today. i was born with my hands untied, but i will lose them each year that i fake love and fake fate with fake friends that i hate. buy fake phones with fake dollars. live in fake homes so why bother? i was born for a great escape…
