Gulity By Association

Six years ago, a very hot summer night
 Avenue A with my friends hangin tight
 No future, no goals, and no destiny
 Hangin on the corner for the world to see
 Some friends drunk and some friends high
 Laughing, talkin shit as the people walked by
 Air was dense, muggy as fuck
 Lower east side runnin amuck
 Guilty by association
 Judged by who I know
 Can't keep all my friends outa trouble when they got no place to go
 Guilty by association
 Judged by who I know
 Can't keep all my friends outa trouble when they got no place to go
 Sometimes I felt like an outcast, tryin to talk my friends outa trouble
 Tried to be a positive role model, but I got caught up in the rumble
 We had ideas scribbled on walls
 Six years later our destiny calls
 Living our lives, some of us in bands
 Touring the world, but we know where we stand
 We play shows together or just hanging out, talkin 'bout the good times
 We're still the same fellas, still all tight
 Young till we die and ready to fight for what's right
 As I look back now on that summer vacation
 I realize, I'll always be guilty by association!
