Forward motion is the only option I'm pushing hard but the current is stronger My heart has carried me as far I think I can go And I could drown if I stop or I falter The sea is full of sharks as far as the eye can see And they can't wait for the chance to devour me They smell the blood and they begin to circle I gotta do my best to stay afloat Life isn't easy like I thought it would be And I could tell you lies just to make it better This is nothing like they show on TV So if you want the truth just come with me Forget everything Reject the lie you've been sold Forget everything Reject the lies, reject the diversion Donny told me I would make a million I heard the force was strong with this one I put my head down and drank the poison But it turned out to be a pack of lies They've always lied to me in front of my face They told me I would make it, join the rat race Life isn't easy like I thought it would be I could tell you lies just to make it better This is nothing like they show on TV So if you want the truth just come with me Forget everything Reject the lie you've been sold Forget everything Reject the lies, reject the diversion I'm trying as hard as I can And if I stop now I will end up a dead man I'm trying as hard as I can Can't stop now, if I do I'm a dead man Can't stop now, if I do I'm a dead man 'Cause I'm not used to that complacency like you are That life you live, it ain't me we're not on par No need to shine, I just grind and I get mine Forget everything Reject the lie you've been sold Forget everything Reject the lies, reject the diversion I'm trying as hard as I can And if I stop now I will end up a dead man I'm trying as hard as I can Can't stop now, if I do I'm a dead man
