Back Track

(Verse)
Come on in, relax and take a seat
We'll be here for a while so kick the shoes off your feet
I wanna talk about my life goals and dreams
Cause they seem to be changing every other week
I've been bouncing back and forth
With a catalytic force
I am challenging my course
Instead of basking in remorse
I'm heading down this long road, and dancing at the fork
And now I'm battling these orcs that are slashing at my core
As I throw lyrics, I wanna go get 'em
I'm reviving old dreams with this old rhythm
I put my soul in this, I'm never knowing if
I can spark a flame in this cold winter
When I'm writing, there's a profound freedom
Defend until my end, when I go down bleeding
I'm staring at the stars like an old vast ceiling
I'm hoping and I'm wishing that my soul has meaning
I'm spending all my time at my local univeristy
Doing all I can to combat this adversity
I wanna get my name known to those who haven't heard of me
Pursuing something musical is not an absurdity
But I don't wanna live my life on the road
Yet I'd feel empty without a mic to hold
I'm wanting something tame, but my mind is slow
When it comes to making choices as my life unfolds
There's a fear about it, I won't be allowed in
I finally realize that my dreams are clouded
I can't breath without it, I can't see - I'm blinded
I always need a goal that I can achieve proudly
But regardless of wherever I end up
I can take it to my grave that I never give up
I'm living for myself as this optimism reigns
That principle remains as the consequences change
