I was locked all day in the summer heat,
In a small brown house in suburban streets,
The skateboard and my shit guitar,
I dreamed all day that they would get me far,
My dad would ask me about my grades,
the asshole sports that I never played,
And then I ask about the girls he'd date,
Behind our backs when mom would stay up late,
It was then when I turned sixteen,
got kicked out of school and so it seemed,
that things were closing in and ready to blow,
My dad moved out about that year or so,
It took me hours to start a punk rock band
to offset my fucked up family man,
and as I helped my mom would start to cry,
I swore ourselves a better life.
If I had a chance for another try,
I wouldn't change a thing,
This made me all and who I am inside,
And if I could I'd thank God that I am here and that I am alive.
And everyday I wake I tell myself another harmless lie,
the whole wide world is mine.
The summer's gone, the years have passed
my friends have changed, a few did last,
the smallest dreams got pushed aside,
the largest ones, they changed my life,
And all I wished for has come to pass,
From rock'n'roll to love and cash,
Its all success if it what you need,
do what you like and do it honestly.
If I had a chance for another try,
I wouldn't change a thing,
This made me all and who I am inside,
And if I could I'd thank God that I am here and that I am alive.
And everyday I wake I tell myself another harmless lie,
the whole wide world is mine.
Yo oooh (whatever he says)
If I had a chance for another try,
I wouldn't change a thing,
This made me all and who I am inside,
And if I could,
I'd thank God that I am here and that I am alive.
And everyday I wake I tell myself another harmless lie,
the whole wide world is mine
The lyrics RITE OF SPRING of ANGELS & AIRWAVES is also present in the album I-empire (2007)
Angels and Airwaves è un gruppo musicale statunitense formatosi nel 2005 da Tom DeLonge, già frontman dei Blink-182. Il progetto nasce durante la pausa del gruppo pop-punk e vede DeLonge esplorare sonorità più epiche e sperimentali, influenzate dal rock progressivo e dalla musica elettronica. Il debutto arriva nel 2006 con l'album "We Don't Need to Whisper", che raggiunge un discreto successo commerciale pur ricevendo recensioni contrastanti. Il concept album "I-Empire" (2007) prosegue la storia di amore e guerra iniziata nel precedente disco, raggiungendo il top ten della Billboard americana. DeLonge ha sempre espresso l'intenzione di creare un universo narrativo attorno al gruppo, con film e fumetti che completano la visione musicale. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si ricordano "The Adventure", "Surrender" e "Good Morning Beautiful".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
