Punk
Journey of a Punk: Navigating Rebellion and Disconnection
Lyrics
I will admit I've been a ghost
I acknowledge that I've been unnoticed or overlooked
In a ghost town I've been floatin' around
In a deserted place, I've been wandering aimlessly
'Cause I don't know where to go
Because I'm lost and don't know where to go
And I will admit I'm ignorant
I admit my lack of knowledge or awareness
'Cause why would I educate myself
Why should I bother educating myself about a town that cares about nothing?
On a town that don't care 'bout nothin' at all?
Expressing disdain for a town that is indifferent to everything
'Cause I just wanna be left alone
Desire to be left alone, asserting independence
I'm just a punk on a skateboard ridin' home
Identifying as a punk riding a skateboard, heading home
I was nothing more than a kid in a band
Recalling a time when I was just a young member of a band
But everybody thinks you're something then
The societal perception changes when you gain popularity
I never saw it comin' no I never could've planned
Unexpectedly facing difficulties without a planned escape
A safe way out of this trouble I am in
Searching for a safe solution to the current troubles
My father doesn't know what do to with me
My father struggles to understand and guide me
And I'm not sure if I blame him
Uncertain if blame should be placed on him
It's just sometimes we disagree
Disagreements with father, a common occurrence
'Cause what do you do when your problems
When problems overshadow dreams, what do you do?
Take the place of your dreams?
Challenging circumstances make success unlikely in 2017
All odds are stacked against me forget about 2017
Reiteration of the desire to be left alone
Because I just wanna be left alone
Reiterating identity as a punk on a skateboard
I'm just a punk on a skateboard ridin' home
Reflecting on the past when I was just a band member
I was nothing more than a kid in a band
People perceive you differently when you're in the spotlight
But everybody thinks you're something then
Unanticipated challenges without a planned solution
I never saw it comin' no I never could've planned
Seeking a safe way out of the current troubles
A safe way out of this trouble I am in
Expressing surprise at an unforeseen turn of events
I never thought that this would happen
Previously expected a happy outcome, but reality differs
We always swore we'd end up laughin'
Recalling a promise to end up laughing despite challenges
I never thought that this would happen
Repeating the unexpected nature of the current situation
We always swore we'd end up laughin'
Reiterating the commitment to find humor in difficulties
I just wanna be, I just wanna be left alone
Emphasizing the desire to be left alone
I just wanna be, I just wanna be left alone
Repeating the desire for solitude
But I just wanna be left alone
Insisting on being left alone
I'm just a punk on a skateboard ridin' home
Identifying as a punk riding a skateboard, heading home
I was nothing more than a kid in a band
Reflecting on the past when I was just a band member
Everybody thinks you're something then
Public perception changes when you gain popularity
I never saw it comin' no I never could've planned
Unexpectedly facing difficulties without a planned escape
A safe way out of this trouble I am in
Searching for a safe solution to the current troubles
