Lyrics: Lucas Fahey/Jake Barton Music: Dylan Graham/Jake Barton/Tiki Taane/Lucas Fahey I used to walk around thinking something gotta give Acted like the world owed me ever since I was a kid Growing up with that attitude I fended for myself Figured if I didn’t have it I could take it from the shelf And it’s messed up walking round the streets jacking hard Watching friends getting busted like I’ll never catch a charge And there’s part of me that wishes that I did Cos maybe then I would have learnt that lesson as a kid Most people go and blame their environment for production When it cos they place their own needs higher in they consumption Sometimes I ain’t sleep for days no energy for life So addicted I forgot what being 23 was like Drinking straight liquor chasing every drug I could take Walking round trading war stories drunk off my face Looking at you while I’m sitting here stuck in a daze Like if you knew the truth about me would your love for me change?
I used to stay high, and I’d Neverland Watching, time pass my by I can’t get it back It’s playing on my mind almost everyday But it makes me who I am In almost every way
If life is what you really want then go ahead and grab it You can’t waste your days away with your back up on that mattress When the feeling you can’t do it, is a feeling you can’t manage Suddenly them other things, they all contribute to the madness All the vices you’re accustomed to become more of a habit All the drinking smoking rolling buzz round like you’re an addict Feeling average on a day to day, avoiding things you hate to say And the people that you hate to see, you wish that they would stay away I mean There must be more to life than just a scene All the faded glass that’s all that’s in between Then I know one day we’ll wake up out this dream And be, what the universe had plans for us to be But until then, do this here the easy way No don’t be afraid, homie you gon be ok I know the lights that shine can blind you from the truth but after all then patterns form from the light inside of you
I used to stay high, and I’d Neverland Watching, time pass my by I can’t get it back It’s playing on my mind almost everyday But it makes me who I am In almost every way
