Corlian - Stuck Lyrics

Time flies and people change, it's never the same
It's all out of arms reach but I remember the days
Used to sit up in fields then roll a spliff and get blazed
Now I'm working this 9 to 5 just so I can get paid
We all wanted to be grown up, that was the craze
Now we're stuck in our routines and that's the way that it stays
We're just trying to find our way around this adulthood maze
While the government keeps pushing back retirement age
And they're trying to keep the working class inside of a cage
That's why half the population are on minimum wage
Wait a second
Let me rephrase
That's why half the population are filled up with rage
And to half the people listening I know you relate
Heads are standing up, pupils starting to dilate
The bloods' pumping round your heart, in a figure of eight
So you better come and join us before it's too late

So watch out, don't turn your back on me
Go live my best dreams, in my memories
I'm gonna be the best thing you've ever seen
And oh, step away from me
I'm not the same man I used to be
I'm breathing fire down your neck

We all fall into line, it's how we're designed
We go to school to fill our minds, then jump on the grind
Then we're trapped with this endless task that we've been assigned
End up wishing your life away while your body declines
Say it's all down hill, when you turn 25
You crumble under the pressure of work and life combined
With a lack of enthusiasm and any self drive
'Cause you're finding it so hard to stick with the times
Waking up every morning, never feeling revived
Look around for motivation but it's so hard to find
Drag yourself out of bed but no matter how hard you try
Never gonna get rid of the bags from under your eyes
It's the truth that I'm speaking, why you acting surprised?
The feeling comes and it goes, so we take it in strides
It's time to take back the lives we've been cruelly denied
Nobody wants to be stuck at work for the rest of their lives

So watch out, don't turn your back on me
Go live my best dreams, in my memories
I'm gonna be the best thing you've ever seen
And oh, step away from me
I'm not the same man I used to be
I'm breathing fire down your neck

So watch out, don't turn your back on me
Go live my best dreams, in my memories
I'm gonna be the best thing you've ever seen
And oh, step away from me
I'm not the same man I used to be
I'm breathing fire down your neck
