Distance

(album: Ground Control - 2021)

(Ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh)
I don't wanna be caught in a system that ain't like me
Ain't built for me, ain't built like me, ain't real like, uh-huh

Seem so face it
So let's place it, places we go
All my problems
Call my Father, taking me home

I don't wanna be
'Cause nothing is real
Said I don't wanna be
No real life around
No real life of mine

Caught in a system
I'm out here walking the distance (Oh, oh-oh-oh)
Caught in a system
I'm out here walking the distance (Oh, oh-oh-oh)

Uh, oh no, this ain't no test
This ain't no Gangster's delight
Better go like, red light, green light
Gotta meet my dreams in real life, haha
Red light, green light
Someone tell me what peaceful be like
I still can't picture still life
Someone tell me what peaceful be like, uh-huh
Pump the breaks (Pump the breaks)
Simple's so complicated
I might go back to basics, I ain't really got shit to lose
Might see that risk and take it
Might take them rules and break 'em
System still testing patients
Try to put my hope in cages, uh-huh
Pump the breaks (Pump the breaks)
Slow enough that I can see that nothing changes
They won't call my phone until they call me crazy
Someone call the devil, tell 'em not today
I think I need my space, uh-huh (Uh-huh)

Yeah, think I need some time, I need some ventilation
They can only judge on what you demonstrate
Think I need some time, I need to get away 'cause (Oh)

I don't wanna be
'Cause nothing is real
Said I don't wanna be
No real life around
No real life of mine

Caught in a system (Oh, oh-oh-oh)
I'm out here walking the distance (I'm walking the distance, oh-oh-oh, yeah)
Caught in a system (And I'm caught in, I'm caught in, I'm caught in, I'm caught in, oh)
I'm out here walking the distance (Oh, oh, oh, oh)

I'm walking, I'm walking the distance, yeah
I'm caught in, caught in the system, yeah
Oh, walking the distance
Oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Caught in the system
Walking the distance, yeah
