G Koop - Trying to Fly lyrics

[Verse 1: Slug] And I don't even know why I can't hold on to a word that you say You escaped from your cage Just to dance and play across a random face, like... Fly away, little horse, fly, 'for it finds you on the front page We're familiar with the frustration To say we stay sedated, it's an understatement Look alive, life is a celebration We would like to use your current location Lost faith after the first rotation And gave it back to the dirt like it wasn't worth saving Oh, Lord, if I wasn't so bored I'd already poured this bottle on the floor Yeah, right, we ain't spilling a drop About to get so high that we feel like Gods And I don't even know why [Chorus: Eric Mayson] Time ain't cheap, but I know why Cause what I need, I can't buy You're trying to sleep, I'm trying to fly But life goes on, and so do I! I'm trying to fly [Verse 2: Slug] And I don't even know why I still feel like a rat in a maze Even though I know nowadays I should probably have found a method to count my ways I'm tryna leave the runway Confident, I need to go surround myself with sunrays Life's too short to keep shoveling flakes I walk into the water till I'm covered in waves From the first breath till the next laugh Better have a plan to catch your best half Never let the lakes break beneath the heavyweight Gotta spray a little paint on this designated negative space And I don't even know why But I'm committed to leaving you with the valid and vivid impression We could separate the pain from the message But state of mind still in the state of corrections And I don't even know why [Hook: Eric Mayson] Time ain't cheap, but I know why Cause what I need, I can't buy You're trying to sleep, I'm trying to fly But life goes on, and so do I! I'm trying to fly
