(Verse 1)
Trapped inside this cubicle waiting on my cue to go
Work my fingers to the bone well maybe just the cuticle
This ain't life I been livin weekend warrior I've been givin
Two days out the seven the rest are hell call the reverend
I need savin got no savings I been slavin for what
So the place I'm rarely at can house the things I rarely use
Stuff I only bought to try to keep away the blues
I guess that was a fail, cause I am unfulfilled
Depression knows well my dreams are all but killed
Though I still feel a pulse as faint as it might be
My passion screamin out boy resuscitate me
Cause you only walking dead when you got no purpose
And no matter how much you haul your net could be worthless
See happiness ain't tied to no dollar amount
No friends you count, or likes that you get it, or who you been wit
It comes down to do you love yourself and that's it
(Chorus)
Cause hearts live in the moment, minds in the past
Souls transcend time so forevers in their grasp
Today’s tomorrow ‘member when, nothin is eternal
We all in up a footnote in gods journal
Live it up while you can x3
Just live it up while you can
Live it up while you can
Live it up while you can
(Verse 2)
I don't wanna be an old man talkin bout I coulda
After 35 years of dreadin Mondays when I shoulda
Took a chance but I played it safe that was my mistakes
And it's too late now I gotta deal with my fate
Hate I waited negated my heart
Disrespect and neglected my art
All cause I wanted to seem I was livin thee American dream
A house a spouse a couple of cars
Few beautiful kids and we vacay afar
But nobody knows, nobody knows, this is a role
I been playing since I lost control of my life somewhere down road
And no that ain't me, but it could be, so easily
We slip in routines, forget what it means, to want to be things
The things that we did, when we was kids, and end up like this
But not me throwing normally out the window
My ex said be realistic like this pretend though
And truth of the matter is she could be right and this may never pop
But like I said she my ex now and l ain't neva gone stop
(Chorus)
Cause hearts live in the moment, minds in the past
Souls transcend time so forevers in their grasp
Today’s tomorrow ‘member when, nothin is eternal
We all in up a footnote in gods journal
Live it up while you can x3
Just live it up while you can
Live it up while you can
Live it up while you can
