Kunci: C major
Verse 1
C
It's 2007, I'm sittin' in the
back of Lupo's,
about to play his show, I don't know,
I'm 28 years old
and it feels like a lifetime has passed,
worse than that,
it feels like I did the whole thing backwards.
The girl kept saying she got us
Gatorade and crackers
But that's just a tactic
meant to distract
We'll get so juiced up on the crackers
we won't lose the grand buffet
She laid out for the headlining act,
not hungry anyway
I'm sick to my stomach
from the music that the opener played
I sneak a sandwich from the
giant buffet though
Some kind of justice for after
when we don't get paid
There's a punk rock kid on the couch
I'm sweaty cause he just
finished up on stage
He keeps nodding at me
like we are both thieves on a heist
As if I couldn't see that
he was half my age
He asked me how it sounded,
I told him amazing
Too tired or bored to put the sarcasm in
He thanked me and then spilled some
beer on my shirt
Everything was ruined
but I told him it was nothing
Kenneth says I'm down on my luck
But when you have no
luck to start with
You've nothing to part with
And I'm not mad that I don't have it
I'm mad that luck should have
anything to do with being an artist
And now going to a show
makes me want to quit
Not because I'm not good enough
But cause I'm loving too much
to watch it squirm
While it's bones get picked
And all that I can offer is
a bit more traffic
There was a time when I thought
that I could change the country
With a few choice raps
and some odd time beats
But noise plus noise equals noise
And the only way that noise
can make silence is defeat
I'm not hard of hearing,
it just all sounds heartless
I want to leave the state
but I've been five years cornless
Fame is a club that I'm not a part of
So why am I obsessed
with success?
Regardless all my friends getting back
on the high horse of college
Mom breathes a sigh of financial relief
With each new year that I
stay in the course
There's a new tax bracket
that I fall beneath
My sisters play along
like I was dating a convict
Not sold on the vision
that I con my mom with
No one wants to come out
and say what they see
A man with no plan and no
college degree,
I've only wasted a third of my life,
I can still do it right
How many nights does a
man need to fail
Before he can say that he fought
the good fight tonight?
C
Nah, right now I'm a changed thing
This is not how I want to
spend the rest of my life
Because I got it in my head
I had to stand for something
Once you get past that,
the future actually looks bright, man
All these years that I've
starved and hustled
Convinced myself that the struggle was cool
I lacked the foresight
that I was oh so proud of
But not anymore, tomorrow
I'm going back to school
Let it go go let it go
