Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
I remember days When I was back confused like I was playin' charades I thought bein' adult would mean that I'd be made But I'm the same fuckin' loser who just ain't gettin' paid Only difference is I'm wakin' up to learn my trade Stupid college higher ups who make a living on preying On all these young kids who have to be thrown right in the system Sleep deprivation one of 'bout a million symptoms You've been told that it's simple your entire damn life They ain't preppin' you for shit, they just brandishing a knife You just wanna meet a wife and support all of your kids Who gotta do the same thing that both of his parents did I hate to get preachy or come off a little mean I just hate the thought of being just a cog in a machine I can't be behind the scenes, wanna stand out and be seen Just a couple things I think about while turning eighteen I can see the fumes in the room Fill up all the space, yeah it's 'bout to consume Run away, run away, it is your doom Run away, run away, it is your doom I can see the fumes in the room Fill up all the space, yeah it's 'bout to consume Run away, run away, it is your doom Run away, run away, it is your doom Tornado warnings, that's a new thing Paranoia settin' in, what else would it bring? My consciousness already hanging by a string Plus the people that I love throwin' the towel on the singing All alone in the world, why am I so fucking clingy? Told myself all this time that a town would be winning But the seconds keep crawling and my hope keeps thinning Get me off of this ride, take me back to the beginning Tell me truthfully, will this be how I'm feelin' forever? I ain't feelin' gouda, I'm so sick of chasin' the cheddar Boredom and anxiety with only small bursts of pleasure Getting off a call just means it feels like it's happened never I'm still waiting for that day that I'm enriched by the treasure Money goin' down a bit, that shit's applying the pressure Time suppresses all the peaks and raises lows like compressor Still studying the greats from cassettes on my dresser I miss Alayah, I miss my cats I would do anything like ever, to get them back There's many reasons why I wanna, return in time But Lili told me that in doing so, I won't be mine The thing that worries me the most is how these things are gonna alter my course Or maybe that's the beauty in it, shit, it comes from the source If I thought my life was blessed by some all powerful force Maybe my screams for solace wouldn't make me sound so hoarse My uncle still ain't got a kidney, man he's tried and he's tried And I got friends that every day they gettin' fried, so fried I respect it though, the world's a place where few are on your side Thought a couple times of joining to have something to confide I'm goin' week long stretches where I'm not gettin' too clean I'm busy trying to distract myself while glued to the screen If I would try out clothes from June I wouldn't fit in my jeans Just a couple things I think about while turning eighteen I can see the fumes in the room Fill up all the space, yeah it's 'bout to consume Run away, run away, it is your doom Run away, run away, it is your doom I can see the fumes in the room Fill up all the space, yeah it's 'bout to consume Run away, run away, it is your doom Run away, run away, it is your doom Just wanna be satisfied, but will it happen, you think? I'm askin' "with your burger, would you like to supersize your drink?" My window could leave in a second, and be all gone in a blink I wanna jump right through that shit, and through the stars I wanna sink I'm really struggling, midlife crisis at 1 8 They tellin' me that it gets better, but I do not wanna wait My mental state is slipping, falls in silence without any boom Once a flower and in bloom, now adult stuck in doom I can see the fumes in the room Fill up all the space, yeah it's 'bout to consume Run away, run away, it is your doom Run away, run away, it is your doom I can smell the threat right above me, it looms My office is my comfort and also my tomb Need to run away, run away, zoom, zoom, zoom, zoom Run away, run away
