VERSE 1: If I could just change lanes, If I could get over, I know I can make it/ If I could just change lanes, would you let me get over? You don't know whats at stake/ If I could just get there. This meeting it happens in nine minutes/ And im trying to prove to these nine cynics that if Im in it, we can finally silence the critics/ If I could just get there. This always happens to me. Well if people could drive then I could just get there/ If I don't get over this traffic will eat me alive/ If I could just….. If I could just make it up out of this traffic I could just….. Forget it Im getting up out of this traffic/ Im going to gas it, Im going to make this happen, shoulders open, move past fine/ I can pa** him, not going to brake or ask him, ive been late for the last time/ And I swear ive missed or last date, and his last game/ If I could just get to the fast lane, no longer neglecting the people who share my last name/ And Im tired of these work trips. Every sunday working, wheres worship?/ If I could hold it down in this meeting then Im going to move up and….that'll be perfect/ If I could just…. If I could just make it up out of this traffic I could just…./ If I could just make it up out of this traffic/ CHORUS: (Trying to get away now) VERSE 2: If I could just change things, if I could be bolder, I know I'll be free/ If I could just change things, then when I get older, who knows what i'll be/ I could do fashion. They sold my soul and they cashed in. The door is closed and they latched it/ But I can get back to my parents if I could get pa**ed it/ I could just view the stars and soak in the light, at night in the bed/ I never view the stars at night no instead, my light is red/ If I could get pa**ed this, for far too long it has lasted/ The door is open they cracked it, by an accident, im coming home if I could get pa**ed it/ I could just….I could be anything I could be free, I could be anyone I could be me/ I could be viewed as a person and not as a service, I could be seen/ If I could just make it up out of this traffic I could just…../ Forget it im getting up out of this traffic/ Im going to run, Im going to make a break for outside, thats going to make or break me out right/ I'll hitchhike, when a car comes make them brake, thats my ride/ Look at me run! Im going to conquer this obstacle, even though it seems impossible/ If they catch me they'll stop me but right now a freeway is right in my opticals/ Look it ive made it. Theres so many cars im elated/ Just thinking how long that ive waited, for someone to come in and save me/ For someone to come in and do something. Thats all over now, I see cars all over now/ Theres one on the highway, coming my way on the shoulder. WOW!/ He isn't stopping. He isn't seeing me, he isn't budging/ Of course he don't see me, everyone doesn't/ Thought "this my ticket to freedom", it wasn't/ She just couldn't make it up out of this ….. no/ She just couldn't make it up out of this traffic/ CHORUS: (Trying to get away now)
