HOOK:

Time steady wastin', even on my own I'm different
Try to spread my wings but aint no lifting off, I'm driftin...
No I don't have the patience, wonder why the good's so distant
Time steady changin, now you know why I've been missin...

Verse One:

Not defined by no occupation
My passion and what I'm paid for are not related
I'm a slave to a dollar bill
Stomach turnin, can't say just how I feel...
Alienated..
Sittin waitin, thinkin maybe it changes
Watching idols fall, every one a rapist or racist
They lived long enough to be the villain
Never knew if that was real or superstition
Really makes you think when we say the word "tradition'
And everybody's passing on all these bad decisions...
So much on my mind it's hard to relax
I feel like God's calling me back...


HOOK:

No I don't have the patience, wonder why the good's so distant

Verse Two:

Not afraid of you're condemnation
These songs live as time capsules I created
I'm a slave to the rhyme still..
Monkey still on my back no matter how I feel...
Alienated..
Ripping pages out making no changes
Can't write at all and I'm just afraid to face it
Staring at these four walls illin'
Getting old, should be thinkin' bout having children
Really makes you think when we say the word "tradition"
Cuz all we're really passing on is bad decisions....
So much on my mind it's hard to relax
I FEEL THE DEVIL CLAWING AT MY BACK...

HOOK:

Verse 3:

And I was made from indoctrination
My wrongs feel like time lapses and I'm fadin'
Tryna brave thru this mine field
I don't know what I lack, but I know how I feel...
Alienated..
Wrote because I wasn't able to say it
Didn't like what I saw but I stayed complacent
Been living wrong, couldn't see it different
Gassed running springs in a marathon mission
Really makes you think when we say the word "tradition"
Cuz those with the most are the ones we saw winnin...
It be so much on my mind it's hard to relax
I think I'm getting lost in the facts....
