Some will say it`s too late,
So don`t change the story.
There`s too much at stake to grow.
Yesterday was so great,
Just bask in the glory.
Don`t let your feelings show.
And i say,
"oh yeah" like a man with condition
I wait for my heart to stop.
Stay down,
Got a plan hold that position.
You can`t afford a flop.
Pack my suitcase
With my game face,
Take the same place,
And put away the dreams i had.
Let my hair grow,
Find some old clothes,
Let the world know
That my glory days were plaid.
I`m not asking for permission,
Are you ready for me to be me.
Just pass the ammunition,
This prisoner`s about to bust free from chains.
For so long you told me to keep it familiar,
Just play what they all would find,
I can wear this blindfold, stick to your story,
But i gotta ask myself why.
And i play, ..., goes on
For so many seasons,
Til i`m sure i`m losing my mind.
And i say, oh no,
Gotta have a much better reason
To leave all my dreams behind.
Strangers,
Rearrange us,
Stay the same fate,
And become your favorite fad.
With the see-through,
I gotta be true,
I can`t be you.
While yes still comes in plaid.
I`m not asking for permission
Are you ready for me to be me.
Lord, pass some ammunition,
This prisoner`s about to bust free from your chains.
I`m more than just excited,
Like a hundred pounds of monkey on my back.
Now everybody`s divided,
We`re riding this train til we run clear out of track.
Clean of track.
