INNERSTATE

(album: VERY ALONE - 2020)

Nine to five, tryna get away
I'm looking forward, ignoring the lanes
I ain't focused on the innerstate
Tears dry in the wind before they hit my face
Tryna hide how I feel today
But I'm a man, hold it in
'Cause the real ones don't cry anyway, right
Don't cry anyway

I don't let go, I just hold on
And it's starting to take a toll on me, though
Can't stop, paid too much in the past
For the baggage dreams, so I hit the road, then I'm gone
I don't look back, I just roll on
105 on the dash
Eyes closed, waiting to come back from the crash
Eyes closed, and I'm never looking back, no

Nine to five, tryna get away
I'm looking forward, ignoring the lanes
I ain't focused on the innerstate
Tears dry in the wind before they hit my face
Tryna hide how I feel today
But I'm a man, hold it in
'Cause the real ones don't cry anyway, right
Don't cry anyway

So much for living, so much for being fearless
So much for moving, what happened to your healing
I can't seem to put myself together
Seems like I am Mr. Puzzle, am I undone forever
How do I survive the problems inside
Tried a thousand times, I fail every time
I can't stop, I'm in life too deep
Moving up too fast, forgetting the old me
Going, yeah

Nine to five, tryna get away
I'm looking forward, ignoring the lanes
I ain't focused on the innerstate
Tears dry in the wind before they hit my face
Tryna hide how I feel today
But I'm a man, hold it in
'Cause the real ones don't cry anyway, right
Don't cry anyway
