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 I'm at
 Look where I'm at
 I'm living the life that I said I wouldn't, I wanna go back
 I used to call my mom every Sunday
 So she knew her love wasn't far away
 But now I'm all fucked up out in L.A
 '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 fucked up and my heart's changed
 'Cause I care more about what other people say
 Yeah-yeah-yeah
 Yeah-yeah-yeah
 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 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 mom every Sunday
 So she knew her love wasn't far away
 But now I'm all fucked up out in L.A
 '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 fucked 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 thought when I grew up I would be the same
 As the ones who gave me my last name (oh)
 I used to call my mom every Sunday
 So she knew her love wasn't far away (far away)
 But now I'm all fucked up out in L.A. (out in L.A.)
 'Cause I care more about what other people say (what other people say)
 I used to not take chances with God's name
 But it's been so long since I last prayed (since I last prayed)
 And now I'm all fucked up and my heart's changed
 'Cause I care more about what other people say
 Yeah-yeah-yeah
 Yeah-yeah-yeah
 Yeah-yeah-yeah
 'Cause I care more about what other people say
