<Chorus>
Garnet
Been on the road for so long, I’m so gone,
Sometimes you gotta let go to hold on,
Been on the road for so long, I’m so gone,
Sometimes you gotta let go.
Mike
It is the way it is and been the way it’s been for centuries,
the difference, insignificant, is this how it’s meant to be?
simple living isn’t simple as it sounds it’s difficult-unless ya be,
living in a different world mentally,
lately I’ve been feeling perplexed by complexity, stress gets the best of me,
rest-isn’t rest to me, dreams so real I wake up gasping, searching for a breath to breathe,
the enemy inside is messing with my mind relentlessly,
Mark
I was looking forward to the future but I couldn’t get past the present,
Lounging on the road back in 2011,
Kept my engine revvin’ 7 days of the week,
I’m holding on to the clouds while we play in the streets,
And on that yellow-brick, coolin’ with my fellowship,
Like the celibate, fuck for the hell of it,
A new development but we sellin’ our souls,
I tried to hold on but I had to let go.
Chorus x2
Mark
I’ma get it in, then I’ma get it all,
I’m livin’ on the edge, but I ain’t gonna fall,
‘Cause I’ve been playing shows and getting paid in alcohol,
And like last year’s calendar I’m off the wall,
And I hadn’t even really started yet,
I’ve been living life and developing like an architect,
I’m playing hard to get, you’re living easy,
And if you still don’t believe me I’ma tell you this sincerely baby, wait.
Mike
Developing an inner beast, out of touch with inner peace, out to lunch picnic basket case,
mouse without the cheese, found my niche to reach the mountain’s peak,
looking down to see the plummet from the summit on who doubted me, undoubtedly,
loud sounds surrounding me de-fine my boundaries,
overdose on flows I need a boat before they’re drowning me,
always up but down to sleep, count on me to count the sheep,
don’t amount to Z’s, that’s just how I be.
Chorus x2
