lyrics

Here I am slow driving in the fast lane
Black sky, driver side, listen to myself complain
The album’s brand new but it ‘s still the same song
One man whose plan’s got no legs to stand on
Not many cars on the road tonight, beneath the traffic lights,
As I’m contemplating if my path is alright
Still don’t have the big house, big boat, or fancy car
To take a cruise down sunset boulevard
Are all the scenes just dreams or are they more
Prophecies of a lush life but I got to break the door
Chapman knew a car that’d get her just about anywhere
But all I have here is my heart and legs to get me there

I look up, I see the stars in the sky, and it makes me wonder why
If there is a God, he lets the good people die
Where do they go, how long does is take
Am I going too fast or should I ease on the brakes
I breathe in, in an effort of releaving the stress of realities in the things I’m seeing
What about the big man chillin in the clouds
Who opens up the big gate only if he is proud, but doesn’t
Matter how we spin, because none of us will get in
That’s always the way that it’s been with people living in sin
but when you pass around the plate whether you’re 60 or 7
You throw in a dime to try and buy your way into Heaven

Here’s a little lesson my friend on the layers of life
I promise not to step your dreams so give me the knife
You gotta rewind, relax, be recluse in your reflection
Before your thoughts give love and hate the same inflection
This advice is nice, but it comes with a price
If I tell you twice, you should still consume this slice
Be strong and you will last long, too much pride you’re dead wrong
Remember the good times when everyone you know is gone,
Equality is infinite down to the protons
And everyone remember its darkest before the dawn
But the sun don’t want to hear it, as it hides behind the light
I’m alone, we’re all alone, driving through mystic nights
