What Other People Say

Thought when I grew up I would be the same
As the ones who gave me my last name
I would not give in, I would not partake
In the same old drugs everyone else takes

I'm better than that, I'm better than that
I'm living my life so I go to heaven and never come back
But look where Im at, look where Im at
I 'm living the life that I said I wouldn't and wanna go back

I used to call my mum every Sunday
So she knew her love wasn't far away
But now I' m all messed up out in LA
Cause I care more about what other people say
I used to not take chances with God's name
But it's been so long since I last prayed
And now I' m all messed up and my heart's changed
Cause I care more about what other people say
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Cause I care more about what other people say

I wish I could shelter the boy I knew
From the constant hell I'd put him through
Cause I'm all grown up and I'm black and blue
I could use some tape I could use some glue

I'm better than that, I'm better than that
I should be living my life so I go to heaven and never come back

I used to call my mum every Sunday
So she knew her love wasn't far away
But now I'm all messed up out in LA
Cause I care more about what other people say
I used to not take chances with God's name
But it's been so long since I last prayed
And now I'm all messed up and my heart's changed
Cause I care more about what other people say
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Cause I care more about what other people say

Thought when I grew up I would be the same
As the ones who gave me my last name

I used to call my mum every Sunday
So she knew her love wasn't far away
But now I' m all messed up out in LA
Cause I care more about what other people say
I used to not take chances with God's name
But it's been so long since I last prayed
And now I' m all messed up and my heart's changed
Cause I care more about what other people say
Yeah, yeah, yeah
