American Upstart – Sam lyrics

verse #1: sitting in a classroom / everyone's a drone
they're all the same / i stand out alone
all their ideas / are one in the same
when you grow up / you discover the pain

chorus: I KNOW WHO I AM AND WHO I WANT TO BE
THIS TALK OF GROWING UP, OF LIES AND JEALOUSY
IF WHAT I FEEL IS REAL AND WHAT THEY SAY IS TRUE
THEN I'M STILL A KID SEARCHING FOR SOMETHING NEW

verse #2: "an adult sees the world / in brand new eyes"
when what they're really seeing / are all lies
"the world is evil" / "it's normal to hate"
"jealousy is natural" / this is your fate

outro: then i'm still a kid
searching for something new
