lord lord lord lord
well well well well
why don't you just tell them how you feel
i slipped out of my my slumber
i i wonder what the day will bring
step off the escalator to the subway run
the rat race begun
since i heard the clap of the gun
my alarm stun me out of my sleep
that was deep in the inner thoughts that i keep
like the other sheep i follow into the daily grind
i find money to get out of my financial bind
the hands of time are working against me
i try to move quicker
i tie my shoes with her double knot
so they don't slip off
i don't wanna missed opportunity to get got
so this kids off quicks my state shop
show the whole world what i'm made of
gotta get that paper
then i heard a voice in my head telling me to
wait up wait up
i brushed your advice surprised to say
that if i wanna get paid that's the price i'll pay
i just gotta get to where i'm going
where i'm going
i gotta get there quickly get me
speeding through the subway tunnels of sydney
i sit back and that's when it hits me
i gotta slow it down refocus now
patiently just look around and take it in
just slow it down refocus how
have a rest and close your eyes and catch a breath
i slipped out of my my slumber
i i wonder what the day will bring
i go back to my comfort
back back under to where i made a dream
i start to think if i blink i might miss
what the true meaning of my life is
what it was what it is
and again shall be
so i only keep positivity around me
and keep to a philosophy that possibly
we could be destined for something not for mentioned
and since then we work like henchmen
to get the white picket fence and the pension
the house the ah the two one three kids
who at the end of it all we said look what we did
if i would leave with the chance would it still fly
if it all worked out that would be ill right
'cause if it were meant to happen
then it should do well
that's theoretically speaking and it could prove wrong
i ain't pushing along
hope it all works like the things i put in this song
cause they say things happen for a reason
that's something that i could believe in
and before the next time i think i'm speeding
i'll stop and just breathe in
cause they say things happen for a reason
that's something that i could believe in
and before the next time i think i'm speeding
i'll stop and just
i gotta slow it down
gotta slow it down
we focus now we focus now
patiently just look around and take it
just slow it down just slow it down
we focus high focus high
have a rest and close your eyes and catch a
