Pumped Up Kids Lyrics

Assessing my problems while I'm caressing the bottle soda pain
Is aggressive till you find a blessing to some it's novacaine
Aspired to move the rock, I don't even know Dwayne
99 doom game bang bang yo flay
Okay, in the class couldn't ever get a pass from the ones who targets now
With a stash hidden good in the back, tryna tell me that I rap not aware of how an artist sound
Pumped up kids with a big uproar
Succubus only intercourse
What we in here for mid 90's
Living in a war its grimey
Knock down the projects, pac died and bomb threats
Living in a world only me and mi hombre
Being acknowledged, groove to the gunshots
Truces and what not shooting and violence
Cause a misfit being one of the others created
Never love just enough of this hatred to unload on a bunch of them sayin

[Hook]

Dodge a bullet, walking to the office
With my partner got the magnum stolen
Put it in the locker
Hidden for the fact that if we were to be caught up
With it we'd facing a couple years locked up
Approach the man he stole it from
Said want the gun back throw the hands
The man declined left his pride
We turned around sketched out a plan
Went to the locker where the gun was dropped off
Put it in his pocket talking really soft don't wanna get caught
But it was only like 11:10
We're lost kids skipping class
Dickies saggin with different tasks
One with a mag
2 with his back
True story if you asked me then
I'd tell I'd be dead before 18
They'd agree cause the trouble we were facing in the KCMO
Where the safety of homes a dream, 18 and older please
I was a taking a note of the, fact that the black don't crack
But gat go blat at a back and kill my peeps
Corrupted children, Sorry for trusting feelings
Already touched the ceiling my fall is just what will kill me
But if I'm alive after the fall, invincible I am
A pistol in the air fired up and they keep sayin

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
