[Verse 1]
Graduated honors, never went to college
Everything I learned was from a biker and my father
I moved out at 17, my parents were the enemies
I was workin' out a lot and wrestlin', I was a celebrity in Edmonton
Sellin' dope and everything
Then I got a real job and buried all the evidence
Too many girlfriends for one boy to manage
Fell in love a couple times but left their hearts damaged
I remember back in school they would bully me
Hat super crooked with the extra baggy Fubu jeans
My best friends told me they were sick of me and spit on me
Then I kicked it on my own so no one would belittle me, man
Man, I contemplated suicide, then I went to high school and became the cool guy
Dated all the mean girls and partied with the loners
Made the grad speech when we all got our diplomas, I'm good
[Chorus]
And I think it's kinda crazy that I lived to see today, aye-aye, aye-aye
Oh whoa, oh whoa, oh woah
And I think it's kinda wild that a smile stayed on my face, aye-aye, aye-aye
Oh whoa, oh woah, oh woah
And every time I cried about I told myself everything would be ok
Aye-aye, aye-aye
Oh whoa, oh whoa, oh woah
And every time I lied about it I would tell my mamma that I had a good day
Aye-aye, aye-aye
Oh whoa, oh woah, oh woah
[Verse 2]
Moved out of my hometown and started hitting stages
Payed for some features and the prices were outrageous
Blew up on my own, now I'm Vancouver famous
Got evicted from my condo for one too many ragers
I used to work construction in the city
I'd hide in the outhouse, write raps and smoke ciggies
I got fired from like every job I ever had, late everyday and my attitude was bad
But, bought liquor with the money from the groceries
Hung out with the homies on the beach drinkin' coke and E
Hung out in the dive bars, broke up with my girlfriend
The only one I'd die for almost killed herself again
That's when I knew I had to bounce, put my shit in storage and lived on my homies couch
Toured Europe twice and came home in bandages
Now I'm gone again and I been drinkin' in Los Angeles, bitch
[Chorus]
And I think it's kinda crazy that I lived to see today, aye-aye, aye-aye
Oh whoa, oh whoa, oh woah
And I think it's kinda wild that a smile stayed on my face, aye-aye, aye-aye
Oh whoa, oh woah, oh woah
And every time I cried about I told myself everything would be ok
Aye-aye, aye-aye
Oh whoa, oh whoa, oh woah
And every time I lied about it I would tell my mamma that I had a good day
Aye-aye, aye-aye
Oh whoa, oh woah, oh woah
[Bridge]
When I got in a fight I was on my own
When they threatened my life I would just run home
When they bullied me at lunch I would hide away
When I look back at it now there's nothing I would change
I wouldn't want it any other way
[Chorus]
And I think it's kinda crazy that I lived to see today, aye-aye, aye-aye
Oh whoa, oh whoa, oh woah
And I think it's kinda wild that a smile stayed on my face, aye-aye, aye-aye
Oh whoa, oh woah, oh woah
And every time I cried about I told myself everything would be ok
Aye-aye, aye-aye
Oh whoa, oh whoa, oh woah
And every time I lied about it I would tell my mamma that I had a good day
Aye-aye, aye-aye
Oh whoa, oh woah, oh woah
