An acid (from the Latin acidus/acēre meaning sour) is a substance which reacts with a base. Commonly, acids can be identified as tasting sour, reacting with metals such as calcium, and bases like sodium carbonate. Aqueous acids have a pH of less than 7, where an acid of lower pH is typically stronger. Chemicals or substances having the property of an acid are said to be acidic.
Common examples of acids include acetic acid (in vinegar), sulfuric acid (used in car batteries), and tartaric acid (used in baking). As these three examples show, acids can be solutions, liquids, or solids. Gases such as hydrogen chloride can be acids as well. Strong acids and some concentrated weak acids are corrosive, but there are exceptions such as carboranes and boric acid.
There are three common definitions for acids: the Arrhenius definition, the Brønsted-Lowry definition, and the Lewis definition. The Arrhenius definition states that acids are substances which increase the concentration of hydronium ions (H3O+) in solution. The Brønsted-Lowry definition is an expansion: an acid is a substance which can act as a proton donor. Most acids encountered in everyday life are aqueous solutions, or can be dissolved in water, and these two definitions are most relevant. The reason why pHs of acids are less than 7 is that the concentration of hydronium ions is greater than 10−7moles per liter. Since pH is defined as the negative logarithm of the concentration of hydronium ions, acids thus have pHs of less than 7. By the Brønsted-Lowry definition, any compound which can easily be deprotonated can be considered an acid. Examples include alcohols and amines which contain O-H or N-H fragments.

Theres acid in my stomach and theres blood in my veins
Kids are busy playing in the sun and the rain
I cant help feeling concerned that I am insane
Theres someone staring at me and a place is a plane
The sky is far too bright but it is night where I stare
Its sunny where Im standing but its flooding somewhere
And I cant be concerned because I really dont care
If where I am is fine why do I think about there
Chorus
And its fine I dont have the time
For concern for the things Ive learned
And I know that someday Ill grow
But right now I just cant figure out how
Verse
Im walking up the stairs that make the life that I live
Im having trouble caring finding shits that I give
And I cant help pretending that I like to forgive
Forgetting is the problem for the people Im with
Theres books up on the bookshelves but the spines arent cracked
Forgotten where theyre standing but theres knowledge untapped
And I cant be concerned because its knowledge I lack
But someone somewhere wrote them and they make me feel bad
