Adam Prince - Dirtbag Lyrics

I wrote this song four times, this the fifth life
But I don't know if I will bestow it recording 'cause
I got a friend, if you can call her that
She'll brawl and crap and put you down and say it's a fact like it's from an almanac
She put my friend down. Gossip 'bout me now
Then she turns around and says we're pals like, we don't know her mouth
Really, really? Do you think that we're dumb
Or are you tryna get close 'cause we're the popular ones
Where were you last year or the year before
When Carly was still here and she was running the floor
You were a bully then
Now you're a good friend
But now we're climbing up
And so you want in
I think you're insecure, you have to be the popular kid
So you turn to us, not even tryna amend
But we see though you and all your twisted intent
But that much insecurity is what I can't comprehend

I don't claim to understand your head
I won't say that I can get it, 'cause I ever can
I won't say that I can get it, 'cause I ever can
Can you show me what it's like to be you
Here's the plan
Don't be a dirtbag
Don't be a dirtbag
Don't be a dirtbag
Don't be a dirtbag
Don't be a dirtbag
Don't be a dirtbag
Don't be a dirtbag
Don't be a dirtbag

How much insecurity does it take to turn a bully to a buddy in less than a day
You didn't ask for forgiveness, even acknowledge your sins
You just started talking to us hoping we'd let you in
And I honest wanna try to give you a chance
But every time I try, you think I'm tryna get in your pants
And then you talk behind my back
And that's why you're not in my pack
But if I gave less of a crap, I would have negative, in fact
And I know where you're coming from
I've been in your shoes
I used to be my best friend's bully too
You wanna apologize
You need to recognize
And drop whatever guise
And only tell the truth
I'd love to be friend
Just with the real you
Who doesn't talk behind my back, hanging your own noose
It tightens and tightens because you're losing your guidance
And every step you take, you're closer to your own doom

I don't claim to understand your head
I won't say that I can get it, 'cause I ever can
I won't say that I can get it, 'cause I ever can
Can you show me what it's like to be you
Here's the plan
Don't be a dirtbag
Don't be a dirtbag
Don't be a dirtbag
Don't be a dirtbag
Don't be a dirtbag
Don't be a dirtbag
Don't be a dirtbag
Don't be a dirtbag
