Blessing A Curse Rat Race Lyrics

Is this an oasis
Or just a mirage
‘Cause I think I hate this
We've been here too long

It's always been this way
We've gotta work ten times harder than everybody
I'm starting to think that it's almost funny but it still hurts
Now to make matters worse
Motherf*ckers wanna try and coerce
Me into believing this is all we're worth

I've never been the kind of guy
To expect a free ride
But for Christ's sake
Can something f*cking go our way?
I knew this wouldn't be easy and I get it
I'm just saying that I'm fed up with the way
The system's set up and i'm
Running in a rat race
Where I can't see the finish line
‘Cause I'm always in a bad place
Causing me to fall behind the ones to whom
I compare myself
I know it's no good for my mental health but

It's okay it's okay
It's all part of the process
That the light is burning out inside of me
It's okay it's okay
‘Cause we're all out of options
So cover your eyes and just pretend
That burning the candle at both ends equals progress

Quit avoiding me Stop changing the subject
And take your hand off the door
We're not done yet
When did you stop fighting for us
When did you stop fighting for us
When did your heart turn to rust
When did your heart turn to rust

They told me “fake it til you make it”
So I did just that
And when I thought I had it all figured out
I fell flat on my face
It can only go up from here
Or at least that's what I tell myself

It's okay it's okay
It's all part of the process
That the light is burning out inside of me
It's okay it's okay
‘Cause we're all out of options
So cover your eyes and just pretend that
Burning the candle at both ends equals progress

My eyes are not adjusted to the light
My ears are not adjusted to the sound
I feel like I can't do anything right
And I will never understand this life
Here's to struggling
Internally
Here's to struggling
For eternity

Here's to struggling
Internally
Here's to struggling
For eternity
For the rest of our lives
I can't do anything right
