Slug - 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 in play I cross a random face like fly away, little horse, fly 45 you're on the front page We're familiar with the frustration To save the day we stay sedated it's understatement Look alive like this is a celebration We would like to use your current location Lost faith after the first rotation I 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 the drop About to get so high that we feel like Gods And I don't even know why [Hook: Eric Mayson] Time may cheat, but I don't 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 find a method To come my ways I'm tryna leave the runway Confident, I need to go Surround myself with sun rays 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 I'd better have a plan to catch the best task 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 leave you with the valid, vivid impression We could separate the pain from the message But state of mind still in the state of correction And I don't even know why [Hook: Eric Mayson] Time may cheat, but I don't 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!
