Markings - Room To Grow lyrics

The rat race changed the landscape On your last legs Barrel towards your maker Fulfilling your mandate At a set pace Strutting for the edge of the cliff I'm in a different headspace than these irrelevant pricks I bet you think you're a clever ba*tard Overstep your boundaries like d**h'll never happen Some hope is everlasting Bridges oceans Moves mountains Makes you brave the insurmountable No matter who's counting I gaze at the stars bent Bask in their afterglow Could never stop my shine Until the casket's closed I will not deal in maybes or what-ifs I does this Strictly the sure shot Nevermind the dumb sh** You Tom, Dick & Harry's stumbling off your 3rd rock Jumped ship, and got outfoxed like Rupert Murdoch A bitter pill to swallow Hard to digest Jagged edges rip your insides Carving your flesh When you're green, you have room to grow [But once you're ripe and ready?] It's up to you to go [I know, I know] Slowly you rot and decay Karma serves your just desserts, every dog has its day [Verse 2: Lex Garcia] From corporate monopoly to imposed monotony Pa**ing by robberies Ignoring sobriety Numbing our reality The devil is a part of me The truth is harder to swallow than pride Like I took the blue pill Hard to follow, right? Fathers are crashing planes Simple and plain Mothers are broken flowers Let's find the power To grow out of self-imposed obstacles With ceiling and floor effects Stay in the box Without breaking your necks Well I wish you good luck I'm Trying to touch the sky and remain down to earth Universal lies The controller don't work I'm a puppet, no strings attached Life's a race, you can catch me cheating 'Cuz I'm growing as I'm breathing And I Inhale life Exhale undertanding One man standing on a thousand mountains
