Stardust

de Bryan El

The older I get
I can't understand it
Can they really not find
A cure for cancer?
Or do they already have
An answer?
But they see dollar signs
In a child's eyes

The older I get
I can't tell the difference
'Tween superhero's
And super villains
Guess one side traded
All their capes in
And now the bad guys
Wear a suit and tie

Just make it make sense
Do the good guys ever win?
They say you'll get it
When you're older
But I just understand it less
How's the world so
God-damn ugly
The older that I get?
It's like it just keeps
Gettin' colder
And it's fuckin' with my head
I woulda stayed young
If I'd known
This was the older
The older that I'd get

The older I get
I hear: It's just business
When these crooked politicians
Line the pockets
Of their rich friends
Knowin' you and I gotta
Pay the price

The older I get
I wish that Christians
Tried to be a little
More like Jesus
But I guess all those
Poor and sick kids
Just can't buy that
House of white

Just make it make sense
Do the good guys ever win?
They say you'll get it
When you're older
But I just understand it less
How's the world so
God-damn ugly
The older that I get?
It's like it just keeps
Gettin' colder
And it's fuckin' with my head
I woulda stayed young
If I'd known
This was the older
The older that I'd get

Raise your right hand
Plead the Fifth
Tryna cover up names
On a list
Lie and say that it
Doesn't exist
What the fuck kinda place
Am I in?
Work two jobs
Try to make rent
Heaven help you if you've
Got brown skin
Watch 'em starve
On Gaza Strip
How the fuck is this
The older I get?

They say you'll get it
When you're older
But I just understand it less
How's the world so
God-damn ugly
The older that I get?
It's like it just keeps
Gettin' colder
And it's fuckin' with my head
I woulda stayed young
If I'd known
This was the older
The older that I'd get
