No rags to riches, slave to the grind
Lost in a bottle, I got wrecked out of my mind
Wait for the weekend, wait for a thrill
Five days of bullsh** made me crucify my will
Stone cold sober to make ends meet
I realize that I don't live on easy street
Give me a reason, why should I stay?
Don't have the guts to leave
I'm just wishing it away
(Chorus:)
If I had wings to fly
I would be gone with no goodbyes
If I had wings to fly
Welcome to freedom, I'll ride the sky
Life is a rat race, don't rock the boat
Keepin' up with the Joneses before you get too old
Suburban victims control the game
Don't need no ticket to get on that gravy train
(Chorus)
I wish I could fly away
And leave this world behind
No dreams about yesterday
Spread my wings and fly
(Chorus)
