been around the world now for 21 years and we finish every night now with 21 beers cos life will make no promises, that's what I hear so we live like no tomorrow cos it might not appear they sold us a dream and we bought it even through they knew that we couldn't afford it a sentence of endless school loan debt why you not bought your first home yet? why are you all so entitled? your grown but you act like a child there's jobs out there just go and try look you considered a career as a fry cook? and some times i don't eat so i can pay rent cos the union and the boss are in the same bed holding scissor arms eat as they cut cheques and every year that money's worth 2% less. but that's just the way it is some things will never change that's just the way it is oh but don't you beleive it. i be working on the tape no for the doll when you hit the lights, i am in control we are set the signs and we good to roll don’t miss the hype, we phenomenal all the runners up here i will a offer a condolence i will never give this up because the music where my soul is if you hating on my choices well excuse me here the door is I’m in the game to make it rain with money for me my homies i call them a toxic friend they bring you down like a zeppelin i do not give them oxygen i am building a following it isn’t that common place my minds in another space i’m waiting for better day chorus is here imma let it play I don't ever sleep cos I wanna keep on living ever since I was a kid i only wanted to be different i never been to L.A. but i saw it on the telly and soon i'll have the property right next to Katy Perry asume that there's a lot to me that no one gets to see in but i'm due to win the lottery in any given minute as soon as the authority Alaska's on the playlist I'll call you on the telephone to tell you that I made when they say my name it's with emphasis it's all a product of my impetus they listen to me when i'm singing it i started this trip imma finish it see my song now with a million plays on top of billboard for a million day and everyone here gunna know my name cos I'm destined for that life of fame

the city stops when I stop so jump up on roof tops of city blocks and break locks The city rots day by day and falls apart all the same to dreams built on bought stocks and sold stocks like fort knocks you dream big you lose lots that's the deal that we have got try so hard and end up short some days they have loved me not we learn to love then we forgot I won't be the forgot only so much room there at the top but until we get there we better keep praying all I ever here is all they keep saying all they ever say is what we could be all those other words mean naught to me all the other things here in my dreams seem to me to be to be selfish deeds and I can't please all of these people who have plans for me the only way to win is to never start playing all I ever here is all they ever keep saying there's no limit to what you can be but that's not what I've heard, that's not what I've seen because what I've seen is kids younger than me hooked up on speed selling drugs on the street it's easy to see we're the lost generation just take a look by your local train station we have to take loans out just for education the pollies never paid a cent makes you wonder where the taxes went has the money for schools and homes been spent on more fighter jets for emperor Tony and money for the people? Goddamn if only I just want some money for rent and for fuel and I'd have some left to buy some mics for you to heard what I said and I'd survive on burritos and beer and bread I locked my keys inside my car again I feel guilty for not being vegetarian or voting libertarian or smoking like a Rastafarian army man in a beer stained cardigan so how about I start again In this game I'm wanna win so grab the wheel goddamn I'm in too young for innocence too young for freedom they won't ever hear the kids if that's the way they see 'em cos if i could find a way to live and never have to sleep then i'd stay awake all night and i'd never miss a thing if i could find a way to live and never have to sleep then i'd dream with my eyes open cos if i could find a way to live and never have to sleep then i'd stay awake all night and i'd never miss a thing if i could find a way to live and never have to sleep then i'd never go to sleep, no i'd never go to sleep there's no limit to what you can be but if that is true then how can it be that men overseas can buy our elections with money they earn from their corporate exemtions it's easy to look at the reason i'm jaded our democracy has been manipulated the system was broke from the moment we made it and maybe come here take me with you to somewhere where the time can stop but life it can continue living for the moments when the whole world is with you is harder when the rest of life there's nothing left with in you cos if i could find a way to live and never have to sleep then i'd stay awake all night and i'd never miss a thing if i could find a way to live and never have to sleep then i'd dream with my eyes open cos if i could find a way to live and never have to sleep then i'd stay awake all night and i'd never miss a thing if i could find a way to live and never have to sleep then i'd never go to sleep, no i'd never go to sleep they say there's no limit to what you can be but that's not what I've heard and that's not what I see you know what they call us? Generation Z? generation me me me generation ADD but what I've seen is global warming the economy falling and thousands of kids who may never grow up to see their dreams you wanna know why I don't watch TV? cos I know there's just gunna be another black teen in NYC gunned down by police while the pundints and politicians turn the protests in the streets into nothing more than riots of thugs and theivs I wanna know how the government can pay millions to climate change deniers to give speachers or build coal ports on pristine beaches or give tax breaks to co-orporate leaches while indigenous kids have no schools and no teachers I wanna know if there will still be a future in 20 years time that exists somewhere else than the unemployment line if there's anything that I can do to help or if history's like a mix CD and all it does is repeat itself the city stops when I stop so jump up on roof tops of city blocks and break locks The city rots day by day and falls apart all the same to dreams built on bought stocks and sold stocks like fort knocks you dream big you lose lots that's the deal that we have got try so hard and end up short some days they have loved me not we learn to love then we forgot but I wont just give up my time here means too much there's a voice inside that wont shut up and I'll be damned if I ever stop
