Desai - Crazy Year Lyrics

Last year was a period of death and chaos
Not just for me, but for everyone
Hopefully, this year will be better
Been a crazy year for me with all the death
The ones I know, and the names unsaid
I'm just here trying to sit here and take a breath
But everyone's dying it's like Macbeth
Then there's politicians aisle versus aisle
Fight with each other till the death, we die
No one at the Capitol knows what they're doing
And I don't really need to write a song to prove it
Then I'm thinking, how do I cope?
Not spending my savings for a trip around the globe
I can talk to my friends don't need a 4.0
Let's not walk out the door and go
That's what this is about, coming together
With more than one we can all be better
As I sit in my bed this writing for my pleasure
I'm hoping we partake in the endeavor
There's been another shooting
And the politicians are executing
People around this world are hating
And fake news we all are faking
Then there's me with the crazy year
All my friends just seem to disappear
Now I'm here all alone
Please don't get up and go
Now I'm on my phone scrolling through the internet
Reading about how all the people are upset
Joining in the fight, I sometimes regret
It's a call to arms, and you're making me sweat
Noticing the fake shit all over IG
It gets to me, like when I don't achieve
Red and blue, we all deceive
But the truth is that we are all naive
Texting my friends but the never text back
Making me feel bad, I want to go back
Life has no back button
Gotta get off my phone and be someone
Reality check! Yeah where my homies at
Hanging out with them ain't a game of tit-for-tat
Might be a democrat but I'm a diplomat
The future we'll decide I'm at-bat
There's been another shooting
And the politicians are executing
People around this world are hating
And fake news we all are faking
Then there's me with the crazy year
All my friends just seem to disappear
Now I'm here all alone
Please don't get up and go
I'm sitting on the couch writing lyrics escaping scorn
Checking off the boxes but I don't wanna conform
I can't walk across the country, like my friend Mike
But this year I'm going to figure out what's right
Not doing it by walking 20 miles each day
I'm too busy for that but I will find a way
Last year I thought that this year would be the best
It really wasn't but I'm gonna beat the rest
Turn the pencil around, use the eraser
Unlike everyone else, I'm not faker
Just go to sleep now, wake up tomorrow
Maybe then I'll be left without the sorrow
