Asking Alexandria Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Got a bottle of jack in our hands
You trying keep up kid?
Let's see who hits the ground
We've drank the drinks
We've done the drugs
Clearly we don't remember
We've come so far
Without us you'd fall and fade away
They say it all breaks down to keeping your feet on the ground
My sole intention is keeping my head in the clouds
They say that I can't last a day in the real world
I say you wouldn't survive one night in mine
Notorious and shit I wouldn't trade it for the world
I'm infamous but damn you can't help but love this shit
Notorious and shit I wouldn't trade it for the world
I'm infamous but damn you can't help but love this shit
You can't help but love this shit
I'm everything we need to make this scene what it should have been
Remember platinum albums, sold out stadiums, leave it to me
Let's tell the truth, not to be rude but we're all irrelevant
This music's dead with a bullet in its head
Let's wake it up
It's so insane, I'm so insane
Going insane, I'm so insane
Leave it to me from here
Leave it to me from here
