Business As Usual

If I can just be honest

I think I'd rather be on it

Nothing is real or what it seems

I'm living a lie but it's a nice dream

Where are my golden opportunities?

Is it business as usual, if you're overseas?

Is it too late for a change of pace?

Or is it slow and steady wins the race?

I'll be heading for the finish line

Final lap in the nick of time

Black or white, good or bad, it's so intertwined

If the shoe fits, you couldn't walk in none of mine

Pantomime, trouble never falls far behind

Feel the weight

Pull the pin and watch it detonate

Drop bombs, now we barely even demonstrate

Old news, now tin hat views

Forgot about and washed off like fake tattoos

But it's stained in me

Class ingrained in me

Like a mirror came with me, everywhere that I go

No secrets in my past, all my demons on show

Therapy in every session of flow

Now run it back, like a lifeline

Cut me deep, I hold a grudge for a lifetime

No liberation, on the road full of potholes

Sell me a dream, but the script is full of plot holes, be honest

If I can just be honest

I think I'd rather be on it

Nothing is real or what it seems

I'm living a lie but it's a nice dream

Where are my golden opportunities?

Is it business as usual if you're overseas?

Is it too late for a change of pace?

Or is it slow and steady wins the race?

How do I describe some of these friends?

Pick me flowers with thorns in the stems

Diamonds in the dirt, who stole most ma gems

Real snake-like, the outline of the Thames

Put yourself first it won't last long

I've been going slow and steady on a fast song

Funny everybody walking with a mask on

Being two-faced really did seem to catch on

I can see through it, I can really tell truant

If it sounds like he talks shit, trust that he's fluent

I don't need to question if the loves fake

I can feel the vibrations in the handshake

So I stay shore, if you're invading my land

I'm on the beach with a line in the sand

Trying to make it through the day, any way that I can

Being honest, only thing that I plan

If I can just be honest

I think I'd rather be on it

Nothing is real or what it seems

I'm living a lie but it's a nice dream

Where are my golden opportunities?

Is it business as usual if you're overseas?

Is it too late for a change of pace?

Or is it slow and steady wins the race?

If I can just be honest

I'd rather, I'd rather, I'd rather

I think I'd rather be on it

I'd rather, I'd rather, I'd rather

If I can just be honest

I'd rather, I'd rather, I'd rather

I think I'd rather be on it

I'd rather, I'd rather, I'd rather
