so i wrote this yesterday in the car on one of my family's annual trips out to Lancaster lol its about my love and hate for the state in which i live
also there's some things in here you might get only if you live in PA *cough mike and chuck*
this is also the longest song i've ever written. i might go back and edit it later when i finish the album it goes on. in case of reductiveness
feedback is appreciated :D
enjoy
I've called this place home
my entire life
now it's time to move away
and let it be home for someone else
from the smog filled cities
to the Pocono Mountains
i know this state
like the back of my hand
it will never
leave my soul
Insane Philadelphia pride
beats through my blood
but it's time to say goodbye
to the rolling hills of Pennsylvania
Warm summers & warm winters to come
i wont miss your cols, Pennsylvania
i won't miss the bitterness you hide
within your borders
but i will miss your memories
and your landscapes
your mountains and rivers
your history
your cities
your rolling hills, Pennsylvania
dont let anyone break your shale
please dont destroy my rolling hills
fight like hell, Pennsylvania
a house divided never stands
so come on Stealers,
let those Eagles soar
let the Phils keep fighting
and those Pirates going for the gold
Don't the Penguins slip
and let those Flyers fly
lets go back in time to the 76ers
The rolling hills of Pennsylvania
beat with pride
from the battlefields of Gettysburg
to the Steel City of Pittsburgh
to the freedom sealed for all in Philadelphia
Pennsylvania is the warrior state of america
the Keystone in the puzzle of liberty, equality, and freedom
what would we do without
the rolling hills of Pennsylvania
There's a certain depression
in your industrial wastelands
but your still home
and as much as i love you,
i hate you
i hate you laws preventing true love
from taking flight
i hate your government
i hate how sad your winters are
Dont take it personally
i cant stand you anymore
your mountains make me lonely
your cities choke me
i gotta get out of here
and escape the rolling hills of Pennsylvania
i was born here
but not meant for here
my blood needs warmth
my skin needs the sun
body needs the ocean
you arent the home i was meant for
im sorry, Pennsylvania
but i gotta leave you behind
for my own vendetta
penns woods?
more like penns prison
im breaking your bonds
and setting myself free
ta da its done! now i know how to properly spell Pennsylvania lolololol
