The rat race changed the landscape On your last legs Barrel towards your maker Fulfilling your mandate At a set pace Strutting for the edge of the cliff Im in a different headspace than these irrelevant pricks I bet you think youre a clever bastard Overstep your boundaries like deathll never happen Some hope is everlasting Bridges oceans Moves mountains Makes you brave the insurmountable No matter whos counting I gaze at the stars bent Bask in their afterglow Could never stop my shine Until the caskets closed I will not deal in maybes or whatifs I does this Strictly the sure shot Nevermind the dumb shit You Tom, Dick Harrys stumbling off your 3rd rock Jumped ship, and got outfoxed like Rupert Murdoch A bitter pill to swallow Hard to digest Jagged edges rip your insides Carving your flesh When youre green, you have room to grow [But once youre ripe and ready?] Its up to you to go [I know, I know] Slowly you rot and decay Karma serves your just deserts, every dog has its day [Verse 2 Lex Garcia] From corporate monopoly to imposed monotony Passing by robberies Ignoring sobriety Numbing our reality The devil is a part of me The truth is harder to swallow than pride Like I took the blue pill Hard to follow, right? Fathers are crashing planes Simple and plain Mothers are broken flowers Lets find the power To grow out of selfimposed obstacles With ceiling and floor effects Stay in the box Without breaking your necks Well I wish you good luck Im Trying to touch the sky and remain down to earth Universal lies The controller dont work Im a puppet, no strings attached Lifes a race, you can catch me cheating Cuz Im growing as Im breathing And I Inhale life Exhale undertanding One man standing on a thousand mountains
