(We're all looking for that escape)
Looking for Friday was a trend, and I knew I missed it
What's so wrong with being solo? Cause none of y'all can be different
It ain't a life that you're livin if you're stuck in the weekend
Bet you wake up on Thursday praying for midnight's peaking
And I was rocking, on the clock in, tryna get to the top, and there wasn't no stoppin
But I knew it wasn't gunna be for long, cause soon I'd be poppin
Around the world, I was hearing my name
And honestly I don't give a f*ck about the fortune or fame
It's all about livin' and being wild and free
Now I ended up on the billboards and my shows ain't free
And since the day I was born, musics constantly been my passion
No matter what I went through, it always was and always has been
So if your homies 9-5 and wants to be like me
Make sure he grew up on "The Office" stuck on MTV
Cause' that's when times were simple, and it was fun getting paid
Cause that's when lies were civil, now y'all getting betrayed
Now people hatin' half their life and looking for Fridays, mhm
We're all looking for that escape, even when life don't seem that great
We're all looking for that escape, even when life don't seem that great
Yeah, aye
I always knew I was different, started way before grade school
All the whirlpool of misrule, tried to teach us by ridicule
Now, everyone at 18 is lost and confused
Being exhausted from a class that can't even keep em' amused
But I know I can't stop, to keep my life rolling
Cut out all that posing, it's obvious y'all choking
Cause Friday's coming and I can see that it's showing
Y'all just like my service, yeah your friendships roaming
Now look back on your life, the decisions the craze
And all that got you, was looking for Fridays
And all that got you, was trying to cope til' Fridays
Mhm
