State Champs - Shape Up lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

When I tell the story of this decade

The memories and melodies are neva the same

I knew that we prevailed

Knew it all too well, neva end up stale

Anotha thing that I wish I knew

Is how u're goin' to sit me down and make me choose

There's no doubt it will turn around

(Chorus)

So I'll tell myself that I'm not a victim

But I'll own up to the mistakes that I made, I can see through it all

The world's neva goin' to fall back, ask where u're at

Out with the old, let the truth be told, shape up, and stand tall

(Verse 2)

When I tell u why I don't act my age

It compliments the fact that u've got nothin' to say

I knew that it took time and a fucked up mind

Just to stay in line, but all the value I could demonstrate

And all the places that I've grown to hate

Well, they bring life, so I'll say it twice

I just want to know what it's like to rebel

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

I could lie if u wanted, but in the night I think of all this time and all this space

And all the tracks in the dirt that we could retrace back home

I'm not alone, don't put my story back on it's shelf

I was choked up but my tongue untied itself

(Chorus)
