We've been growing older And we've got nothing to show for it But when it's getting darker You gotta shine that much brighter We've been growing older and We've got nothing to show for it But when it's getting darker You gotta shine that much brighter Dreaming my whole life away I'm living in a quiet place Praying for some better days With better men like Eddie Vedder says Runnin' with the wolves, I'm in a Shia phase Working by the fireplace With sacrificial smoke surrounding my entire face I'm looking for a higher way I'm looking to retire while I'm young enough to buy up an entire plane I'm looking for Empire plays I remember seeing brighter days once when I was five or eight Before the thought of shame Or poorly timed displays of grace ever became commonplace Before I knew how to erase Before I ever knew my name But me, I'm tired of stressing Sip a hot drink on a cold day Send a message to the heavens Roll in paradise like Coldplay Got enough, please no more lessons Keep me young like adolescence Beat the shit out my depression And keep it coming with the blessings, no P.S.'s We've been growing older and We've got nothing to show for it But when it's getting darker You gotta shine that much brighter We've been growing older and We've got nothing to show for it But when it's getting darker You gotta shine that much brighter Yeah I know tomorrow wasn't promised but then came that Obama shit And I decided to temp as an optimist But all that's just some more of that working on a contract shit God, I miss, the ignorance of bliss, a bitter sentiment But can I get a witness in this bitch? A middle finger from the "f*ck this" generation given nothin' to sustain us In this fucked up iteration of the American dream I'm checking for some updates or a cheat code at the least bro Ripped the blindfold off Lady Justice, tried to wake her from her slumber She dropped a couple Ambien and went back under I wrote a letter to Santa, grabbed a map to Candy Mountain Sacrificed some cattle, snatched a rabbit foot amulet, patted a magic lamp Blacked out and crashed before my wish was granted Then I had a half a gram of the magic and poof… It's hard to be uplifting when I'm downgrading Make the right choice when I'm left hanging But If power corrupts I'm a fucking angel with a black heart Cause I'm taking my power back, flippin' it like an hourglass I'm done living rich I'm buying cash I'm talkin' bout making a diamond out of grass We've been growing older and We've got nothing to show for it But when it's getting darker You gotta shine that much brighter We've been growing older and We've got nothing to show for it But when it's getting darker You gotta shine that much brighter
