Hook:
Darkness – Causes my demeanor –
I want something different, they label me a dreamer –
My Whole Life’s Been Lived On The Wrong Side Of The Tracks –
Bout To Jump This Fence To Get To That Greener Grass –
No Looking Back – No Turning Back –
Bout To Jump This Fence To Get To Where The Grass Is Greener –
No Looking Back – No Turning Back –
Bout To Jump This Fence To Get To That Greener Grass –
V.1
I see the other side, so close but so far away –
And where I stay is constant war and pain –
And the rejection is a reflection of my environment –
When I wanna give up they always seem to keep trying and
When I wanna end it all – they always seem to press on –
What Am I Missing? Is it a lack of Faith? My premonitions
Are that I’m destined for failure –
I’m Absent Of Hope –
They pray to get relief – I get relief by smoking dope –
Deep Seeded Hate – I try and weather the storms –
But inclement weather takes its toll when you all alone –
Tried talking to my view of god, he wasn’t listening
But my god was money, elbows, and Pyrex in the kitchen –
They got something better, I want it but don’t get it –
Why’s the grass always greener on that side of the fence?
Wanna find what they found – Wanna get what they have –
So I’m Gon Jump This Fence To Get To That Greener Grass –
Hook:
Darkness – Causes my demeanor –
I want something different, they label me a dreamer –
My Whole Life’s Been Lived On The Wrong Side Of The Tracks –

No Looking Back – No Turning Back –
Bout To Jump This Fence To Get To Where The Grass Is Greener –
No Looking Back – No Turning Back –
Bout To Jump This Fence To Get To That Greener Grass –
