lyrics

Look in the mirror, see my enemy, my greatest friend
Make me happy, then make me guilty like some fingerprints
Like I shouldn’t pursue my dreams, weren’t you the one
That told me we could be the greatest? But then we grew up
I guess we change the second we age, forget where came for that picket fence
American dreams that our parents had as immigrants
We go to school and graduate it with honors
Then most of our salaries go back to payin’ for college, huh
Now, we back to stay with our mommas
Either that or wait for that tax break from Obama
Sippin that Brooklyn Lager, plottin’, I’m like Ciabatta
Takin that new role (roll) to get the bread, in the end I
Pray to this god that I barely believe in
Tell him he should give me the word, but he buried the meaning
Ya see this, life is a bitch, and she’s very conceited
Wishin’ she would just let me ball (bald), but I’m barely recedin’
My demons, become my reality, ‘fraid of bein’ average like my salary
The game don’t give me credit…I charge like a cavalry
Or that battery, powered to the max…
Time is more than just a hour in a glass
We spend our whole life saving
Then spend our whole life savings
That mid-life’s crazy
Forget that, I’ll be forever dreamin’, and yet I’m never sleepin’
I pour this liquor for my inner demons, Goodnight
Goodnight
Yeah, I tell my demons goodnight
For now, maybe I’ll see ‘em in the mornin’
Ironic, I had to die a lil bit and yet it brought me to LIFE
They say that life is what you make it, so baby why you livin’ your life this way?
That’s a hell of a price to pay…
 
Nobody said it was easy, these dark shadows light my pain
So now that we’ve hit this ceiling, do we just disintegrate through the flames?
 
How come we don’t know?
How come we don’t know?
How come we don’t know?
We blow with the wind…
