Electrik - Heat Lyrics

Oh, I can't wait to escape the heat
This pavement burns underneath my feet
After growing up in these streets
There's oceans and my heavenly dreams I see
Oh, I would ditch the valley so fast
Some guy said "the past stays in the past"
After work, there's a check to cash
When I fulfill my future forecast

It's burning, and I can't take it
Tired of little white lies that I'm faking
All of my life feels so mistaken
But it'll hurt leaving

The heat, baby, I'm crossing a line
The taste of victory is so sweet
Making a change this time
Maybe just not in the heat

Oh, I miss old friends every day
It comes and goes in drunk tidal waves
But what is there even to say now?
Leave past emotions in the ash tray
Cause I've been playing shit in my head
Didn't know why, couldn't comprehend
I'm glad I never even said
You should live your life until you're dead

I feel like life's moving so fast
Sand is falling through the hour glass
But I know I'm more than up to the task
It's been real, but goodbye to

The heat, baby, I'm crossing a line
The taste of victory is so sweet
Making a change this time
Maybe just not in the heat

Though I love this dirt stricken valley
I don't feel I belong in the heat
