Self Defense Family – Have You Considered Punk Music lyrics

Dumb kid decisions through the lens of an dumb adult
Walls you went around, broke down, and built
Choke went to Berlin to have his awakening

Mohammad went to the mountain, no patience
You’re a bit like him, you took a job at the station
Choke went to Berlin to have his awakening

Things you said and why’d you fight that kid I don’t remember
Seemed like I was angry or something maybe
Choke went to Berlin to have his awakening

Porcell had to try one last time
Brass ring hanging by horsehair overhead
Choke went to Berlin to have his awakening

Steve kicked a man’s head from his body
Caught on video but there’s no body
Choke went to Berlin to have his awakening

Good stories and real life don’t overlap
But cinderblock through windshield, I choose to believe in that
Choke went to Berlin to have his awakening

Street people do street people things
Found a way to direct that high school rage
Choke went to Berlin to have his awakening

The way you think it is as a kid gives way to difficult but unavoidable days that underline and highlight that you’ve been doing it wrong and for so long you can’t crawl your way back to reasonable you have to swing violently to the other side which as it turns out isn’t violent at all but mild and neutral and bland and pablum and sand for your landing cotton for your tongue
