Blue collar baby
Maybe one day it won't fit so tight around my neck
In debt to a school that ain't provide the right tools to dig me out of this dirt
My shirt is starting to lose its shine
It's cool I'm fine
I've never been one to whine
I've always been more inclined to see the bright side of things
Running on incline I wish I had me a set of wings so I could fly far far away from here
The sheer weight of it all falls on my back
Stacked to the ceiling I'm just waiting for this glass to shatter
Bits and pieces of my life scattered I'm battered and broken
But I got no time to let it soak in
Grow a pair, know that life is unfair
But these growing pains hurt much more than I anticipated
I feel my body dissipating
I'm fading away evaporating into the ozone layer
Floating
Coping
Hoping
I could find peace up there
In my mind
