lyrics

I'm unfocused, need to clear my mind
Can't get a hold of my self control
Took a road trip up 10th and Vine
Finally realized......... I! I! I!
(gotta get up)
And I don't care what they say (I gotta get up)
And I don't care why they do (I gotta get up)
We can't lose got the tools
And the groove
Gonna break it down just for you.
(I gotta get up)

What IZ the reason we fight to stay alive?
We got to take some risks.
Leaving your city, your state and your country
Explore the world a bit.
Counterfeit struggle. Technology bubbling.
What is all this Grey?
Matter of falsity. Thoughts in a coffin.
We’ve reached the final plague.

Shelf life
Hangin’ on to superstition
What you’ve given up
Shelf life
Lyin’ down to competition
What you’ve given up

Dealing with life's
Deception got me tainted all the way.

Afraid of the future.
Erasing my past.
I'll never do nothing.
How long will it last?

I don’t need any help.
I don’t need no place to go.
Lost!
In a cage in a hole/home.

<Chorus>
