In Character, so adventurous
Head high, he’s with us
Catching up in stride
She’s tryna leave a tip, can’t make the change
Can you take the hint?
Nah, but every little bit helps in the thick of it
Well, I can’t recall my dreams no more
Cheap living, theories unfold to save face and keep score
Silence to my ears
When do we keep on settling
To see the end but not the light?
I saw the end but not the light
We step misstep wholeheartedly there
I can see the time and the place
Where all my missteps set a path for me
When I break free the herd keeps spitting at me
And I’m spitting back
Was beside myself trying to spill it all, that’s the truth
Trying to guess what happens is no better than lying low
Find the language of that feeling
Through freedom of authenticity
We step misstep wholeheartedly there
I can see the time and the place
Where all my missteps set a path for me
When I break free the herd keeps spitting at me
And I’m spitting back
