07 Tattooed You
F, 100bpm
V1
Those tattooed lines you admire
and say reflect your soul,
recognize you're gonna find yourself
against a wall.
Colored ink designs
don't count for clout with most
"irresponsible"
And society would sanitize itself
CH
You're turned away
Yay-e-hey-e, tattooed you
But you live the life you choose
Spin in circles apart from the mainstream
who turn away from these things (2 -"stains).
V2
On assembly lines you perspire
a place they'll let you toil
and in these lines you're gonna find yourself
in the dirt and oil
Colored ink designs
don't count for clout with most
"irresponsible"
And society would sanitize itself
<CH>
BR
Woe-O, Sometimes what you do
for a lifetime follows you
Woe-O, And makes it harder to fight for your life's dreams
You live the life you choose
woe-o, with your tattoos
They say, I live the life I choose
woe-o-o, my tattoos
It's a life decision
END CH
Yay-e-hey-e, tattooed you!
and you live the life you choose
Hey stay tattooed you!
But it's not like you can choose
ENDRO
Wear it proud
and say it out loud
every design something to say
Wear it proud
counter the crowd
except now your part of that crowd
Your wear it proud
You're gonna shout it loud
and every design defines you, yeah.
Check out this left arm
it's a knife in a fire
and a dragon drapes my neck

Jacket Notes: This song topic was inspired by my wonderfully strong and caring niece Maddison, who experienced tattoo discrimination in her employment around this time. I love your tattoos.
