Set It Straight Hourglass
The bottom of this hourglass is full,
and it's way to heavy to turn around.
There's never enough time and I'm always f..cking late.
I can't keep up with this rat race.
So now I'm trapped... another dead end.
I need more time.
So caught up (… just catch up) in living I forget that
I’m alive,
forget I have a name (they’re all the same… they’re all
the same).
And then it hits me, and it makes me f..cking sit.
It’s all true and all I want are lies.
So today I’m gonna rise up with sun,
complete the goals I’ve set
and move on to the next.
I’m so young there’s no reason to run.
But everyday, this nine to five
destroys all my thoughts.
This lake I’ve been swimming in is stagnant.
I’m fishing for disaster, and I’m the f..cking bait.
My hard work means nothing to them,
my efforts gone to waste.
And I’m so sick, you should be too;
Our blood and our sweat means more than this paycheck.
