Burn The Pages - Rat Race Lyrics

Day in day out, I can't find my way out,
Slave for a worthless 9-5 payout
These f*cking thoughts in my head, I can't give in, tearing and tearing right through my skin
Wasting time
Half my life left behind
Ready to die
Hourglass running dry
Sands of time
I keep fighting the current
I disrupt the motion
Of fates laid out plans for me
Staring down the barrel of a wasted life
Darkness fills my soul one more endless night
The system burning from the inside there's no hope to fight.
They want us on our knees but,
I. WOULD. RATHER. DIE.
Rat race, keep pace, no space, gimme more
They're watching,
Cut through another maze, feel a daze, heavy breathes, they drugged you,
Your head is spinning, and spinning, this is the end, they worked your brittle bones
Straight through your skin
Burn
Burn
Burning down the system, that you love ever so gracefully,
Never win a rat race when you participate willingly
I keep fighting the current
I disrupt the motion
Of fates laid out plans for me
Tearing down all the constructs
Of what's been expected
I'll make my own path and find my own way.
Stuck inside a cage, they threw away the key,
My withered veins have no more blood that's left to bleed, I've given everything, and still I can't be free,
Tear it all down
Tear it all down
Tear it all down
I keep fighting the current
I disrupt the motion
Of fates laid out plans for me
Tearing down all the constructs
Of what's been expected
I'll make my own path and find my own way.
