Strive for Growth
- Intro (0:17)
- Each day I go, my brain, it grows
- The more I know, good I suppose?
- Those bits of advice you shove to the side
- Always behind bars, locked up inside
- Your deepest fears know change is pain
- It's time for change, but can you sustain?
- Without a drive you won't survive
- So strive for growth and be alive
- Verse (0:34)
- I had a few friends once, they did not last
- I grew up quick and now they in the past
- Remember when Saturday's had meaning?
- Dismembered conversations, morally defeating
- You told me you are definitely left leaning,
- And I said "Fuck politics, dude!"
- In hindsight, you might think I was rude
- But you just jealous of my mood.
- Persistent pleasure every day, intend to make it all this way.
- Variables engaged through intelligent design,
- Articulate approximation to keep it all in line,
- This existence is mine, you will surely find
- None is by accident, I just was gifted with a mind
- That allows me the sight to arrange what I see
- Into facts of my life, make you strive to be me.
- I decide what I am and who I want me to be.
- I'm sure a day will come when you will see the chances you had
- And you will contact me and try to be the nicest fucking lad
- But, I will not forget the displeasure of knowing what you did
- Because I don't want your shitty habits rubbing off onto my kid.
- You're flipping burgers, taking orders,
- I'm too artistic to be defined by borders.
- Cubicle, working for a boss
- You fucking hate, I'm at a loss
- How could you be so weak not to see
- What I see so bright, like a sun to me
- That change won't come, and that it isn't free
- So I'll write my own history.
- 10 years from now, you'll still be sad
- I'll be doing what I love, as a Dad
- My kids will know I worked for them
- I changed my life when I grabbed this pen.
- So hear this song, and wonder why
- I'm rising to the top while you're just fucking dying.
- You're eyeing my pathway, you can't forge your own
- And that's why I will rise to the top all alone.
- Hook 2 (1:30)
- Each day I go, my brain, it grows
- The more I know, good I suppose?
- Those bits of advice you shove to the side
- Always behind bars, locked up inside
- Your deepest fears know change is pain
- It's time for change, but can you sustain?
- Without a drive you won't survive
- So strive for growth and be alive
