[Verse 1]
Birthed into existence, young but fallen victim
To a life so corrupt, buried deep inside a system
And everybody's leaving it, or still trying to get out
Living on a dangerous edge, hoping to fall down
A lucky few can leave this world, taken by their health
Others have to wait, or just end it all themselves
That bright light of happiness burns peaceful when it shines
Is this all real, or a fabrication of the mind?
I don't even know, anymore I'm trying to find
What I'm looking for in life, while I grind
This is my life, but I don't have the time
To start being happy before I reach the other side
But when I get there, then I'll know
When I achieve it, then I'll go
And never turn around until I'm sure the curtains closed
Cuz really this is all I hold
Dear and close to my heart
And nothing will ever stop me from living among the stars
I'm about to cross over, I can hear the waking calls
I can hear the soft voices telling me to just fall
They make me feel great
Like I'm a hundred feet tall
And I promise you I will be, at the end of it all

[Verse 2]
So it's the Earth, and the Sea
Different words to set you free
Smoke some herb and clear your mind
Never hurt though, let it be
I can't tell you how to feel, I can't tell you what to see
But I'll give you little guidance, and really that's the key
We should find our happy place, maybe that's how we win the race
We call life, day and night, everyone's got a different pace
Everyone's got a different face, everyone's got a different plate
That gets filled with different food, as we live in different ways
We all got shoes to walk away
And everyone has another cheek
Just waiting to be turned so that they never see you weep
Or so you never seem weak, when you're facing such defeat
How the fuck else can we ever really reach our dreams?
So we sit back and repress it
Mostly past and present
Trying to figure out the future 'fore it hits us like a zeppelin
Escape into a world where nothing else exists
Leaving this behind, like it doesn't mean shit
Cuz it treats us as that
Nothing else makes many any sense
Why the fuck should we stay a second longer if we can?
Just make it go away with a snap and a clap
The flick of a wheel and a spark to ignite the gas

[Outro]
I dedicate this song to Brian Dagle
Rest in peace
I remember...when I first started putting my music up
He heard it, and he texted my brother, and I don't remember what he said
But, it made me feel like I could do this
And I'll never forget that
And he will always be missed. We love you Brian
