Chorus x 2 Everyone think the burbs are all candy and cake But it's a damaging place where sanity's fake And everyone knows Appearances can be deceiving But where I'm from, there the only thing people believe in J ROB Verse 1: Sarah wakes up, no stawberry yogurt, just pilates and yoga And she's hardly a grown up Cause what she sees in the magazines, Is what she thinks that she has to be Barely 13 with an eating disorder And nobody there that she needs to support her Her parents are obsessed with their careers it would seem Their love affair with the American Dream buries their teen They can't even hear if she screams, and she never does eat But that's hidden by their BlackBerry screens Now long is how she's wearing her sleeves Cause she don't care if she bleeds In fact, when she holds the blade, Her soul escapes into the Air that she breathes So they Buy her shoes, a couple new pairs and some jeans But She needs nothing but help And the only thing that makes her feel alive is cutting herself How fucked up is wealth? Chorus x2 Everyone think the burbs are all candy and cake But it's a damaging place where sanity's fake And everyone knows Appearances can be deceiving But where I'm from, there the only thing people believe in OtherWise Verse 2: Kevin's an only child with a broken smile Might in fact, hide the crap, that his shoulders pile This teenager seems gleam, Keeps anger deep anchored Hidden by flesh, wishin for death in each prayer He dreams of this happy place Where he's a cast away And popularity doesn't control what path he takes So he can walk alone His father's a good mess, They talked at home, He doesn't want to follow his footsteps Just wants to live without the pressure to meet Every single standard in his parents precious beliefs But the stress and the anger he suppresses is danger- Ous so the drugs are to better the strange urge He gets where he just wants to hurt all his peers And his parents cause they made him feel worthless for years Cause no matter what he did they just shout at him And no matter what he does they're never proud of him J Rob Verse 3: Known all over town He was a gentleman from sole to crown Inspired those who were oh so down They would See him in that 7 series BM, Wish that they could be him... Got A scholar daughter, and his Son's the star QB, And if this is the only thing that we are to see Arguably, If we add in his perfect wife, Then on the surface its the perfect life But his Son's juicing It's a dangerous course he's on Girls say say no, then he's raping and forcing em Daugther's on Crystal Meth and If she found out it would hurt her mom But who do you think that she learned it from? Got Fired, down to to his last move Mortgage has been way past due, So what's a dad to do? To erase his riddled past It'll take one little Pistol Blast... The death of Mr. Middle Class

about

We had been wanting and trying to do an album ever since college. We feel the culmination of releasing this album and all the hard work we put into it has been a "Long Time Coming." We want to thank all of our supporters.

released July 6, 2010

BIG THANKS to Executive Producer Jon Baylor. He supplied 12 of the 16 beats on this album and without him, we know this album would have ever happened. We also want to thank, obviously, our fans. Whether you were hounded by us to just click "Like" once on Facebook and never listened from then on, or one of those who interacts with us and promotes our music. We appreciate your interest, love, hate, disgust, humor, suggestions, and support.
