Throwing Shade

(album: Professional Misconduct - 2023)

I got no time to change your mind
Can't keep up you get left behind
You can't see it, anyway
Don't think I care what you say

You're so full of misconceptions
Pull it off and ease the tension
One mans mess is another mans dream
Have you worked out we're not the same

Wake up, wake up from this dream
Tomorrow's not yesterday
Today is not what it seems
Break out, break out from this dream
Tomorrow's not yesterday
Today is not what it seems

Every single moment, everybody's breath
Every other minute, every single death
Everyone's a winner on every other day
Sending myself to an early grave
I'm not you, you're not me
Soon as you get that the better we'll be
I'm no stranger to misery
You see the war not the casualty

Can you tell I'm throwing shade
On all the empty promises you made

Wake up, wake up from this dream
Tomorrow's not yesterday
Today's not what it seems
Break out, break out from this dream
Tomorrow's not yesterday
Today is not what it seems

If it feels like you can't take it
Don't think that you're going to make it
The monkey on your back you can't shake it
Time to get serious and break it

Wake up, wake up from this dream
Tomorrow's not yesterday
Today's not what it seems
Break out from this dream
Tomorrow's not yesterday
Today is not what it seems
Wake up, wake up from your dream
Tomorrow's not yesterday
Today's not what it seems
