[F#] [C#]
[A] [Em]
[E]
Get [C#] kicked out from the home at four
[B] Mom and Dad [F#] curse the old war
[B] Who you got close to with a full bag?
Shouts, whistles, and all the homies will drag
[E] People kill each other too, right by the stage
I run a risk, but all night, no date
[C] There's a place you can go where the costumes know you can act real wild
It'll be your [Bm] time
Run [D] away, boy!
[C]
You have no reason [G#] and you feel like a slob
You're only fifteen years, you can't get a job
[E] Run to the muncher, they'll choose you, game
Who's your life force?
Man's always a slave
See, look up on the box, somebody [A] moves wrong
Slip through the [Am] alleyway, the wrong way
[Em] [D#m] [E] [C#]
Run it faster, faster on the side
[A] You're underage and you've got no [Am] sense at [B] all

It'll treat [Em] you like a child
