Easton Grave - I've Been Here for Too Long Lyrics

Yeah
Brady Wayne

Wus good?

Yeah
WVS

TMATC

Uh
Yeah

What the f*ck is up?
I'm so driven to not be a failure
So part of the passion dies
And sometimes I reconsider
Did I not reach my full potential
Cuz my heart caught up in these instrumentals?
Did I not go to school jus to numb my brain?
Which part of me really pulls the strings?
Which part of me defies all odds?
Push back up against the Gods
Grind hard up against the grain
Change lives with an open cause
Turn tides through a different wave
Sunshine
Rewind
And I disinfect
Turn back
One time
And I disengage
My faith overthrown
By this intellect

Life in the 'Sco
Has got my mind so frozen
I feel like I'm chosen
But
Liven the life
Ain't no life in my eyes

Life in the 'Sco has got my mind so froze
Drugs every weekend just to melt it all
I don't really wanna but I cannot fall
Cuz pain's for the weak
Pain's for the weak
Life in the 'Sco has got my mind so froze
Drugs every weekend just to melt it all
I don't really wanna but I cannot fall
Cuz pain's for the weak
Pain's for the weak yeah

Pain's for the week
Pain's for the weak yeah
Pain's for the week
Pain's for the weak
Pain's for the week yeah

And I guess I never had friends
But you'd find me in a clique
Cuz I was just like them
Always wanting what was next
Trying to follow a trend
Just so we could fit in
See I fit so good I stood out
Bleached my brown hair blonde like No Doubt
Did my thang, walked tall 'n showed out
Now they think I'm an asshole
Yeah they think I'm conceited
So self-absorbed
Yeah they think I don't see it
But who held you up?
When you went too deep
Watch people change
As I grit my teeth
Cuz I knew that they resented me
So head high when I walk on by
Like "they know, they know"
Skin too thick for the seething pricks
Like "you ain't know yeah you ain't know"
And I don't really know how else to be
Anyone but W V S
And if right now my lights clapped out
I'd still be okay with the world that I've left
I wanna leave this town
Leave this state, leave this place
Leave this earth, live in space
Above dirt, and the hate
Evil and all the bull
Shit
That's rewritten
Packaged and wavered
Through systems
Laundering spirit and wisdom
See we were told...

See we were told
Yeah we were told
We were told

Life in the 'Sco has got my mind so froze
Drugs every weekend just to melt it all
I don't really wanna but I cannot fall
Cuz pain's for the weak
Pain's for the weak

We were told
We could be anything
Do anything
Anything

And I can't go on constantly hating myself
For
Being a part of something I never wanted
This generation is the death of me
The spark so dim whenever I sleep
No give jus take, only profit schemes
I
I never thought I would have these problems
At least I thought that maybe maybe I could solve em
The dealer flips another pack and then he calls it
But the cards that I'm given
That are in my control
Are holding such a storm of rain/reign
Forevermore
And the lives here at stake
Are of ones that I know
But even my chipset
Can't foresee the unknown
Oh
