Lyrics: Elijah Jacob Mora/Robert Greenwell
Music: Elijah Jacob Mora
Up and at em 8 a.m.
Get ready quick to be late again
Gotta leave early get gas on the way
Weather’s 58 cloudy and gray
Blaring Prince and Mel on the speakers at a 45
Trying not to get in my head about the boring drive
Trying not to get in my head about a boring life
Thinking too much and it always leaves me mortified
I arrive looking sharp as a dull tack
Clock in a minute late
Gotta get to work stat
Got the boss on me breathing up and down my whole back
Now I’m on a third break
Smoking through a whole pack
Blink once and I pull up to the job
Blink twice it’s a sign to a god
Blink eight times and my day’s gone
Drive home and sing the same song
Waiting
Searching for a moment
A place in time that I could be
A little less ordinary
Scream
Out until I break
Do whatever it takes to be
A little less ordinary
(A little less ordinary)
Red Bull pumped up with no meals ate
Seeing doubles, pulling doubles staying real late
Eyes tired and I really need a screen break
Punch a hole in the monitor and steel plate
I don’t work hard just to play this soft
Here for all the holidays and I’m missed lots
“Sir, this negativity is not welcome here,”
Well all this talking down on me got me pissed off
Blink once got fired from a job
Blink twice it’s a sign to a god
Blink eight times lose my damn mind
Drive home sing the same damn song
(God I ****ing hate it here)
Waiting
Searching for a moment
A place in time that I could be
A little less ordinary
Scream
Out until I break
Do whatever it takes to be
A little less ordinary
Listen when I shout
I’m so sick of all these
God damn fears and doubts
Fighting mediocrity
Listen when I shout
I’m so sick of all these
God damn fears and doubts
Fighting mediocrity
(Hey, Mom.
Ugh… ya, I got... I got fired from my job
No, I know, I... I'm sorry
Yeah, I... I know I got to do better
I'm... I'm trying, I'm trying
Ugh... on the bright side
I... ugh... have an interview tomorrow)
Waiting
Searching for a moment
A place in time that I could be
A little less ordinary
Scream
Out until I break
Do whatever it takes to be
A little less ordinary
Waiting (I arrive looking sharp as a dull tack)
Searching for a moment (Clock in a minute late)
A place in time that I could be (Gotta get to work stat)(Got the boss on me breathing up and down my whole back)
A little less ordinary (Now I’m on a third break)(Smoking through a whole pack)
Scream (Blink once and I pull up to the job)
Out until I break (Blink twice it’s a sign to a god)
Do whatever it takes to be (Blink eight times and my day’s gone)
A little less ordinary (Drive home and sing the same song)
