21st Century Kids Lyrics by Kerli
[Verse 1]
We left our homes, went to cities
Grass was greener, skies were pretty
Dreams were big and money low
Didn't matter, we'd still go
Broke some hearts, and got ours broken
Built a fortune, had it taken
Lifted up high, in the clouds
Almost died, went crashing down
[Pre-Chorus]
What doesn't kill you makes you humble
No one can be forever young, no
I'll throw my middle one up in the air
'Cause fuck it, I'm doing the best that I can here (Yeah)
[Chorus]
21st century kids
I'm a little reckless and I skin my knees
Dreamt to find something that I believe
'Cause I just wanna break free
I wanna break free
21st century kids
I'm a little reckless and I skin my knees
Dreamt to find something that I believe
'Cause I just wanna break free
I wanna break free
[Verse 2]
We left our homes, went to cities
Lights were brighter, streets were gritty
Steaks were high and chances low
It didn't matter, I'd still go
Traded gold for all that glitters
Found a God while in the gutter
And only thanks to my fake friends
I know which ones are 'til the end
[Pre-Chorus]
What doesn't kill you makes you humble (Humble)
No one can be forever young, no (No, no)
I'll throw my middle one up in the air (Hey)
'Cause fuck it, I'm doing the best that I can here
[Chorus]
21st century kids
I'm a little reckless and I skin my knees
Dreamt to find something that I believe
'Cause I just wanna break free
I wanna break free
21st century kids
I'm a little reckless and I skin my knees
Dreamt to find something that I believe
'Cause I just wanna break free
I wanna break free
[Outro]
'Cause I just wanna break free
I wanna break free
Yeah
