James Reeder - First Gear Lyrics

Don't got no drive
It's dark in the hollow
Tell you why, makes you cry
No good things will follow

There's a story to be told
On this dusty broken road
Of life we're on

Can't wait for changing winds
For something good to fall
Our way
In spite of all my sins
The situation's clear
My luck just got stuck in first gear

You were the one
From the right part of town
Just look at me, plain to see, poverty bound
You made your choice, your parent's words
Fell on deaf ears, those warning signs ignored

Can't wait for changing winds
For something good to fall
Our way
In spite of all my sins
The situation's clear
My luck just got stuck in first gear

(No) skin in the game
To my shame, this insane kind of lethargy sets in
And I lose all hope
Till you turn my head around
And I've found hope in the sound
Of your singing my old songs

Can't wait for changing winds
For something good to fall
Our way
In spite of all my sins

I got no traction here
You're all that I hold dear

The situation's clear
My luck just got stuck in first gear
Stuck in first gear
Stuck in first gear
