Stuck On Stupid Lyrics - Trees

I got good at fucking up because I practice all the time 

I got stupid and I got stuck I got left without a dime 

I left early and I showed up late 

Everybody's upset because I made them all wait 

I never paid it too much mind 

Until I turned around and noticed it was all the time 

NO MATTER HOW SEVERE I'M GONNA PERSEVERE 

I got chased by the cops I got caught and I got beat up 

I caught a flashlight across my skull 

I was handcuffed to the wall 

I got busted I got beat but from my beliefs 

I would not retreat 

Thrown in the holding cell 

Well they want me to rat 

They can rot in hell 

NO MATTER HOW SEVERE, I'M GONNA PERSEVERE 

Stuck on stupid 

Tired of feeling always down it's time I turned my life around 

Turned my life around no matter how severe 

I got good at getting back I'm not afraid to speak my mind 

I got good at keeping my cool because I know how to let things slide 

I got good at making mistakes 

I've lucked out and I've had my bad breaks 

They got me backed up against the wall 

The harder they come yes the harder they fall 

The struggle goes on the struggle is long 

But it's always darkest before the dawn 

Good things come to those who wait 

Well I'm all fucked up but I'm coming straight
