We're told that we live in the present But we really live in the past Because before you know it The moments don't last And everything's over Everyone's sober Reminiscing on the times we had The moments we shared I wish someone cared Singing, and flying, and screaming, and spying Not a care in the world we were surviving I just wish I could go back to that time and Feel like I had a new purpose, a meaning Because in this world everyone is so mean and Can't even trust those you keep close around you They cheat and they lie and they say that they love you But what would you do if you had none around you I can't feel anymore I can't see through the door I'm lost and I don't think I can be found My head is spinning round and round Time falls like a metronome I wonder if you'll come home It's been so long since I felt something like this I didn't know it was the last time I didn't know it was the last time Time falls like a metronome I wonder if you'll come home It's been so long since I felt something like this I didn't know it was the last time I didn't know it was the last time Do you remember summer 2009 I snuck out the house with my sister And chased fireflies I took for granted all the moments that are in the past Hit rewind to the good times and just play it back Sand is slipping down the hourglass And the fireflies I thought they'd last, but now they're gone and out my grasp My momma told me don't stay out too late we need you home Now I'm grown can't find my way I'm so alone The clock is ticking, clicking Time is coming, going, slowing Everyday goes by it all feels like it's just for show I can't feel anymore I can't see through the door I'm lost and I don't think I can be found My head is spinning round and round Time falls like a metronome I wonder if you'll come home It's been so long since I felt something like this I didn't know it was the last time I didn't know it was the last time

You Wasted my time Wanted my life Waiting for me to come through Fooling myself to believe There was something But you never did what I wanted to do I waited up Filled up cup Checking my phone for a message a text and You never replied and you wore a disguise And you cheated, you lied I'm losing my mind Feel it inside I can't hold it any longer You are demon, a monster You ran and hid under the covers I gave you all that I had And you ran with it You really won't admit That I don't miss you And you're feelin real blue I could care less I'm better off by myself I'm better off by myself You Acted real cool Pretended like you cared but really meant nothing to you I really can't believe Drained all my energy All of the shit I've been through I told my momma I told my father But you weren't worth it You never intended to see them You only want me to believe I was only for you Why did I fool myself into believing That you were me but I couldn't see Took my sight and blinded me Now I'm finally free I'm losing my mind Feel it inside I can't hold it any longer You are demon, a monster You ran and hid under the covers I gave you all that I had And you ran with it You really won't admit That I don't miss you And you're feelin real blue I could care less I'm better off by my I'm losing my mind Feel it inside I can't hold it any longer You are a demon, a monster You ran and hid under the

Hey dad What am I doing Oh I'm in the studio right now Yeah, I'm with Shim Shim and Jordan Kilo's asleep so yeah we're all just vibing Yeah I'm working on this song called Subconsciously I think you'll really like it Yeah, yeah no it's about how music I think Is really shallow today and everybody just cares about cash versus the art And uh yeah I think you'll really like it I'm thinking about you I just keep skipping, and skipping, and skipping Can't even find a tune I'm losing attention, I'm drifting Not really in the room Feel like I'm fed up and I don't know why Songs on the radio are really dry I'm going crazy, I might lose my mind Catch me leave and never say goodbye Subconsciously Hearing these lyrics so repeatedly Can't find a rhythm or a melody And it's killing me I don't even know what I'm looking for Subconsciously All this shit just sounds the same to me Not really listening I'm just hearing things Relentlessly Music's not the same as it was before I'm begging, I'm asking, I'm pleading Can anyone make a song That moves me, infects me, consumes me I'm barely holding on Music today doesn't hit the same Nobody cares they just want the fame They're all just pawns in a silly game But who really is to blame Subconsciously Hearing these lyrics so repeatedly Can't find a rhythm or a melody And it's killing me I don't even know what I'm looking for Subconsciously All this shit just sounds the same to me Not really listening I'm just hearing things Relentlessly Music's not the same as it was before Defeated, exhausted, frustrated Song after song I'm impatient Overproduced and overplayed Materialistic and basic Listening to nothing is crazy Nobody cares they just want the fame Subconsciously Hearing these lyrics so repeatedly Can't find a rhythm or a melody And it's killing me I don't even know what I'm looking for Subconsciously All this shit just sounds the same to me Not really listening I'm just hearing things Relentlessly Music's not the same as it was before Subconsciously

Yeah I'm a waitress I walk around all day and see so many faces Everybody having the same conversation People at the door chilling on the wait list My job is so crazy I see people on the daily Oops I forgot a ranch They can't eat it plainly This woman's like eighty Her hands are real shaky But she's nice and real sweet Plus she tipped me like twenty It's loud cause there's babies The food is real tasty I can't wait to go home Just to go to bed early Oh shit I got sat Lemme go and get that Got to give my whole speech The kid looks like Chris Pratt "Hey man how you doin?" "I'm real good, how bout you?" "I'm alright, just trying to make 1 into 2" "Ok cool lemme start with a water and Ultra" "Be right back, just lemme know when you want dinna" I ring in the order and the beer comes out wrong Chris Pratt is all mad, and I ain't do nothing wrong See clearly it was just the bartenders mistake But really what does it matter Because I get the complaints I walk around saying I hate to be a waitress Everybody's mad and it's making me so anxious People yelling at me I'm running out of patience Wish I wasn't here and in so many places Server's hangry Management won't let us eat I'm tired of all the bullshit I can barely take the heat Several things on my mind I've spent all day on my feet This dude keep looking at my chest, turns out he's a creep I see so many different people in a day Y'all can be real assholes When it comes to pay See I've been here for thirteen hours I ain't got no sleep My non slick shoes are hurting me Everywhere on my feet You can come in and order a bunch of things You want this and that You really pulling me by a string And when you get the tab you act all surprised Like you really didn't sit there And eat them fucking fries Yeah I'm a waitress I walk around all day and see so many faces Everybody having the same conversation People at the door chilling on the wait list Yeah I'm a waitress I walk around all day and see so many faces Everybody having the same conversation People at the door chilling on the wait list Yeah I'm a waitress I walk around all day and see so many faces Everybody having the same conversation People at the door chilling on the wait list Yeah I'm a waitress I walk around all day and see so many faces Everybody having the same conversation People at the door chilling on the wait list To put this in perspective, I'm a full time student I work hard everyday And it ain't for my amusement I tell them I can rap And I tell them I can sing And I tell them this and that But they're not listening My customers are rude And they're giving me attitude And it's cause they don't like their food Oh dear lord I'm in such a mood And this shift in it's entirety It's giving me anxiety I wish they would just fire me So this day is over finally The blue collar dollar that's some messed up shit Poor people work so hard and it's not like they can quit They got mouths to feed, bills to pay, they don't have a choice They been ran over so many times They don't even have a voice Ain't no help from they mama Ain't no help from they father Ain't no help from the government They don't even bother The hardest jobs on the planet are the blue collar They struggle everyday Just to make a single dollar So many hours on their feet Every single day Tired, hungry and broke We all have a lot to say The rich dismiss us They claim they wanna help us But really in reality They don't give two fucks They care about making life better for themselves Greedy, mean and selfish They don't really wanna help Started from the bottom That's what they all seem to say Came out of the gutter And they made the haters pay You came from the projects and you came from the ghetto But now it turns out that you're just rich and shallow Your friends and your family made it out alive But you left everyone else Just to fend for their lives You have all this money And you have all this power But you spend it all on Drugs and hoes by the hour What baffles me is that you choose to do nothing What baffles is that you can and still nothing I ain't said anybody's name in the rap But if the shoe fits Then I guess that's that Yeah I'm a waitress I walk around all day and see so many faces Everybody having the same conversation People at the door chilling on the wait list Yeah I'm a waitress I walk around all day and see so many faces Everybody having the same conversation People at the door chilling on the wait list Yeah I'm a waitress I walk around all day and see so many faces Everybody having the same conversation People at the door chilling on the wait list Yeah I'm a waitress I walk around all day and see so many faces Everybody having the same conversation People at the door chilling on the wait list I got zero respect for people who go out to eat They leave nothing on the tab They just get up and they leave But what you fail to forget What I hope you regret What I know will make you change And switch your mindset Is that you could have been born in a different time Is that all that you have Could be gone and could be mine You could be the one saying you hate to be waitress You could be the one saying that you're going places You could be the one working a seven to nine And you could be the one, who's life was switched with mine I'm so grateful for everything that my God has gave me I have a family and friends, and a stable job that pays me There are people out there who have it much worse No family or friends, and no change in their purse If I think my job is bad, then that just changed my perspective Homeless and hungry And eat nothing for breakfast But instead I have the opportunity to go to work I get to go to college And do some homework I envision a life much better for myself I will keep moving and going, even if I don't get help I really hate serving But I have to keep going I wake up from last night and go straight into the morning So yeah I'm a waitress I walk around all day and see so many faces Everybody having the same conversation People at the door chilling on the wait list Yeah I'm a waitress I walk around all day and see so many faces Everybody having the same conversation People at the door chilling on the wait list
