Lyrics
I probably woke up on the wrong side of the bed,
but I feel like a cloud is following me hovering above my head.
I'm seeking shelter from the falling rain,
I got a lot to lose and more to gain,
pain is all the same on a man's brain
-I'm on my way- but I'm not sure where.
Like a chicken with it's head cut off, I'm lost out here.
With the clock tickin', the plot thickens, I watch and listen
for the opposition tryin to knock the mission, I got my pot to piss in
-and my family- all a man should need
and a crew that would make a stand for me
-can't you see- I'm on the frontline for mine, rain or sunshine
the game is unkind. Like Sam Sneed you need to reckognize.
Chorus
Got to find my place here
My future's not too clear
I'm movin on
Can't noone show the way
Do it on my own each day
I'm movin on
It's like a game of tug of war
and my muscles are getting sore.
It's a fucked up world, I guess that's what drugs are here for
but I don't want anymore, it ain't enough.
When the game gets tough I'll never hang it up,
you gotta get yours.
Everyone else is getting theirs, I'm stuck in the middle of nowhere.
Where my roots have sprouted and thrived in cold air.
I ride with no fear, I got a thirst to quench.
I was born to be wild and I've been searchin since.
I just try to advance and capitalize on chance,
and have the perfect plan for any circumstance -I work it man!
'Till I slip into my deep sleep, I'm in this shit knee deep
and sinkin so I'm smokin weed and drinkin'.
'Till my judgement day, let me know if you got a better way,
I don't got time to waste dwelling on yesterday.
Chorus
Got to find my place here
My future's not too clear
I'm movin on
Can't noone show the way
Do it on my own each day
I'm movin on
