White Trash Anthem

This is a song on the subject of class [...]
Pure and simple
The "haves" versus the "have nots"

Have you ever prayed to the night sky?
Under one of them cold street lights?
Watched another stolen car drive by
Lose your hope and say
"This is where I'll die"?

But you try to say you know me
But you try to say you're from my world
Well, have you ever gone to sleep to the sounds of the gunshots, sirens,violence all alone?

They wanna break me down. Hope I can hold my ground

Your world is MTV. Spring breaks and ecstasy
You'll get your hopes and you'll get your dreams
Well, that choice wasn't there for me

My world remains unseen (unseen by you)
Poverty, no family
Broken homes and broken dreams
I fall upon the thorns of life. I bleed

They want to break me down. I won't back down
They try to break me down. Hope I can hold my ground

I ain't your kinda white. I ain't that kinda white
Never be your kinda white, I'll never be your kind 'cause you made me
Outcast

I ain't your kindawhite. I've never been your kinda white
I ain't that kinda white 'cause I'm a lowlife outcast piece of white trash

(Let's Go!)
Five years on down the road. Two kids and a high paying job
Picket fence and a college degree
Well, that choice wasn't there for me

This path on which I walk. It ain't a game and it ain't all talk
This is all I ever had
This is all they ever let me have

I ain't ever been nor will I ever be another blind eye in society
I seen the way it was for the people like me
I seen the way it was for the families so...

Have you ever prayed to the night sky?
Under one of them cold street lights?
Watched another stolen car drive by, lost your hope and said
"This is where I'll die"?

I ain't I your kinda white. I ain't that kinda white
I'll never be your kinda white, I'll never be your kind 'cause you made me
Outcast

I ain't your kinda white. I've never been your kinda white
I ain't that kinda white 'cause I'm a lowlife outcast piece of white trash
