Yo, Ay man, you know I ain’t perfect… Nobody is. No I stand to be corrected I know one thing for certain though, these super men, these supermen don’t exist bro God exists
[Verse 1]
This ain’t no ordinary story, with the hardships and glory Let me take you deeper into the mind of a child of a bitch with addictions and a wish-list Dear Father, can I get a man and a big ol’ house? Lots of money and did I mention lots of money? Funny how the world turns on me Me and Mama was all alone Wanted for the life that we once called home Trying to get a grip on life gone wrong Young Yelawolf, to tell the truth I came out just fine Guess that’s why half of the people around me growing up said I lost my mind But I just lost the time with friends instead the victim of crime Touched by the demon’s lust and lost my innocence before 5 Molested, forgive my confessions, I’m an open book Growing up to hate pentagrams on my seat in class no open book I dreamed of a gangsta life Any excuse to let go of this hurt My folks were atheists, so I couldn’t let go in the church Anybody who wanted it from me I would back down I was scared I didn’t know how to win Back then all I could do was dream about being Superman
[Hook]
Oh, Oh you’re looking at the sky watching Superman fly Around the whole world while it’s falling apart Oh, Oh we’re looking at the sky watching Superman fly Around the whole world, while it’s falling apart
[Verse 2]
Superman I wish I was you I wish I could kill anything that moves Superman I wish I could, do anything that you could do ‘Cause you ain’t go no flaws and you don’t shed no tears You ain’t never scared and you ain’t got no fears Let the world drowned in my heart’s blood Let ‘em see me in pain Let ‘em see me at my worst let ‘em see me be happy again Let ‘em see my cry let ‘em see me click And run into the white house with a terminator gun and unload the clip on my government I never be above my people I just want more bread Only to split it, divide it, give it provide it to who deserves it who is searching For something that makes sense If you’re happy with this shit, then pump it in the clubs Then be content but Superman don’t ride on dubs he flies, shit
[Hook]
Oh, Oh you’re looking at the sky watching Superman fly Around the whole world while it’s falling apart Oh, Oh we’re looking at the sky watching Superman fly Around the whole world, while it’s falling apart
[Verse 3]
Put on my cape I’m going for it Fuck it, head on to a freight train If they can do it in a video then a white boy from Alabama can do the same (Geronimo!) You got me fucked up I’m a trend setter Rock Wal-mart shoes at the Grammys then drop on the roof on a skateboard dude Whatever, whenever however the hell I want to say it I’ll say it If I gotta say what I don’t mean sometimes the better You could just replay it Just so I could explain it Just so I could be more human Just so the devil could see me conquer it and get through it This is all I got folk a little change and a dream Not much in the eyes of the now but a billionaire in the scheme of things A mascot for the ones broken down, now flying high It’s a bird, it’s a plane, nah it’s Yelawolf riding by in a box (ha)
[Hook]
Oh, Oh you’re looking at the sky watching Superman fly Around the whole world while it’s falling apart Oh, Oh we’re looking at the sky watching Superman fly Around the whole world, while it’s falling apart
[Outro]
Dedicated to the kids Don’t look up for Superman ‘cause he don’t exist Just trust God All the kids in the war zones I am praying for you Wolf is praying for you Alabama’s praying for you
