If van gogh died broke
How are the rest of us supposed to have hope
We're all tryin be great
No one gives a damn
About your life until you lie in your grave

We all know that its wrong
They don't know what you got till you're gone

They only love you when you're dead
That's the only time you get respect
They only love you if you're
27
When you go to heaven
Cause you die on your back
With a bottle in your hand, yeah
They only love you when you're dead

The struggle is real
Real depressing
I ran outta money
So I count my blessings
No one sings your praises till your bodies a ghost
When they're fighting at your funeral bout who loved you the most

We all know that its wrong
They don't know what you got till you're gone

They only love you when you're dead
That's the only time you get respect
They only love you if you're
27
When you go to heaven
Cause you die on your back
With a bottle in your hand, yeah

They only love you when you're dead
That's the only time you get respect
They only love you if you're
27
When you go to heaven
Cause you die on your back
With a bottle in your hand, yeah
They only love you when you're dead
