1, 2, 3, 4...
Yeah
All my life I've been out of time
Every day out of place
Showed up to sports day for the egg and spoon race
Ended up running sideways
With egg on my face
But I wouldn't ever have it any other way
Because the mistakes I made have got me here today
I am stronger
And I'll live longer because I've learned the way
That to get where you're going
You need to run in place
Go ahead and pick yourself up
Put a smile on that face
And show the world a smile and you'll get one in return
Everyone's a teacher but I heard even teachers still learn
To surf the churning tide that everyone has inside them
Grab a board, soon enough you'll be able to ride them
Over to paradise
Where the water's warm, the people nice
I hear the girls are sweet there like sugar and spice
But I could never live like that, it's not for me
I'm more of a surfer in silence with a microphone in his bedroom
All alone inside his home spitting bars over simple beats
Yeah, I'm that kind of simple G
No attention let alone commitment
I just like the way things are and I never want them to be different
Listen
I can see em changing
Wish that they would listen
I can see em changing
Wish that they would listen
Wish that they would listen
What a mess
What a mess that I'm dealing with
Should've taken the advice I was given on how to live
27 with no job, no prospects, no interests
Climbing debt and a weak chest
And I detest
How people make it up as they go along
What kind of plan is that?
What about when things go wrong?
How can you be certain
That when you pull back the curtain
You'll find some worth in what there is around you?
The life that you're building
Filled with hobbies, friends and children
Every day you go closer to the unknown blackness
And fact is that this life is thankless
Give a little, gain a lot, it's tactless
Donate to those who need help
Not because it helps them
But because feeling good is attractive
Uh
Looks good on my feed
What would my grandad say if he could see me?
Mind you, he's dead so that doesn't even affect me
I'm living and getting older everyday
I still mash up my food
And I still enjoy a good play
But I'm going grey
And I can't fathom the things going on around me
Midlife crisis since the age of sixteen
Why won't things stay the same for me?
Somebody pray for me
This life is changing me
And I can't change with it
So I guess there's no saving me
I can see em changing
(Listen, listen to me)
Wish that they would listen
Yeah yeah
(You've got to listen)
I can see em changing
Wish that they would listen
Wish that they would listen
Wish that they would listen
Yeah
Wish that they would listen
Listen
