[intro]
but the thing about heroes
heroes let you down
because the thing about heroes
heroes let you down

[verse 1]
i look for solace in places
that promise me to be safer
than all the other arrangements
that were set out for me

i place my faith in the sacred
belief that age is the way to
achieve every single dream
and figure out everything

when i was younger
every adult was stronger than average
before i figured out what
the h-ll average even is

(lie) life was in their hands, and
questions, they had the answers
(truth)
they’re drowning in debt, mortgage and marriages

[chorus]
i’m scared to grow
forget what i know
and bear the load
speak in grown-up code

when life is hard
and my heart turns to stone
i want to look
up to my heroes

but the thing about heroes
heroes let you down
because the thing about heroes
heroes let you down

[verse 2]
celebrities had my eyes on e!
for days
got to be nice livin’
when every scandal pays

but sin is never serious
for the gods of the age
role models for models
each front page is your face
the vice is in the lights
even when you get off the stage
make a single mistake
and we’ll murder you from the fame

songs like the psalms
like your gospel calms me
and suddenly you’re rolling off the cliff
bill cosby

[chorus]
i’m scared to grow
forget what i know
and bear the load
speak in grown-up code

when life is hard
and my heart turns to stone
i want to look
up to my heroes

but the thing about heroes
heroes let you down
because the thing about heroes
heroes let you down
[verse 3]
i start to freeze
when someone asks me to proofread
‘cause in their minds
i’m the freaking goddess of literacy

at the mic stand when i falter
will you still stand at my altar
and offer multiple drafts
of all your poetry?

i’m in the craft, so you ask
“what do i do?”
i don’t know how i can prove
that i’m freestyling every move

you think i’m made of steel
when everyone else is mud
what happens when you find out
there’s a typo in my blood?

[chorus]
i’m scared to grow
forget what i know
and bear the load
speak in grown-up code

when life is hard
and my heart turns to stone
i want to look
up to my heroes

but the thing about heroes
heroes let you down
because the thing about heroes
heroes let you down
