Guess I will never have you
Guess I will never know
What it takes to understand you
Or to make your gardens grow
I'm only leaving
'Cause I've got no more patience for such an attack
Oh!
The grass is greener
And it seems that green
Is the new black
They're flipping out
Straight up
Borderline crazy
Just to get some gas
They be needing it at home
For the scene of the crime
At the time
It burns out fast
Hell, man!
Let 'em relax
Maybe that would let them know
Their love's gone bad
We allow 'em to relax
Maybe their guns won't harm us
And love can lead us back
Let 'em know this place is borrowed
Hey, man!
Reason is needed to call you out
I really want to find a home
And dream that was the last attack
The world's at its worst yet it seems
That green has become the new black
We make the world
And some would have
Hate become the youth
By creating violence in once peaceful places
And, oh yeah!
How it works for some
I never voted on it
I'm not taking that hate
To make my world
I love you outsiders
And I love to scream out loud
I love bears
And baby eagles
And dogs
And baby doves
I need the sea
The lakes
And trees
And all the stars that shine above
I know it may have worsened
But it seems
That green has become the new black
The new black
The new black
