Wake up and I want to make a special kind of tea
Yesterday behind me and today is how I please
Tryna find the peace I've had but haven't even seen
Do I find it from a cup, or do I find it from a tree
Do I look the other way from all the things I really need
Used to blast my headphones to 'em rapping 'bout some lean
Grew up thinking big while they've been selling us a dream
I can see that life is not the way it is on TV
I was seeing sexy cars and now I really want to speed
Seeing all these colors in a life that's RGB
Seeing people paying for the air that they breath
See a sexy body and it's too bad she's a B
I was moving through the day and saw a lot in life is beat
So I pulled myself together but sometimes it was a feat
So I got into some things that ended up making me numb
Then I rode that wave until I looked back asking what I'd done
I'm just going through the motions every time we see the sun
Waiting for some things but happiness ain't one
So I live my best life until another day comes
Race with me to a place we're free
I packed baggage I'm taking with me
I don't know what's real anymore
I might take a trip 'cause I'm bored
Staying from bad habits is a chore
Staying from being average is hard
Way up high in the clouds I'll soar
I woke up today and I still want more
No, I gotta pull myself together
The fact that we're alive should be the thing I always treasure
Whether you're a man or woman or whatever, do better
Think about why you're complaining even though I get it
Sometimes how I'm feeling switches up just like the weather
Just like how people switch up and then they instantly regret it
I wouldn't do 'em wrong and then I manage to forget 'em
Got a cold heart underneath this sweater
Feeling like I'm out of touch, like a fiend for lust
They feed it to us like a drug, then we wonder why we're stuck
Bogus political stuff, it's why we've got a long road building trust
America has got to be the land of the free
'Till you gotta sit down and pay some taxes on your seat
I understand we're equal at this table where we eat
But the ones who made the party's telling fables as they speak
Forget about all that, I'ma get a big pile of cash where I'm able to fall back
I won't have to break bad, or break bills
The only thing I'm breaking is the law when I'ma hit the gas
Race with me to a place we're free
I packed baggage I'm taking with me
I don't know what's real anymore
I might take a trip 'cause I'm bored
Staying from bad habits is a chore
Staying from being average is hard
Way up high in the clouds I'll soar
I woke up today and I still want more
