Somewhere Over the Chem-trails in the Sky
[Verse 1 - DEMONDICE]
6AM, sound the alarm again, wish that I was stronger
But I guess I'm blasting "跳者" just a couple minutes longer
Roll my sleeves up, lace my sneaks up, before the weeks up, I gotta relax
But the fact is I'm a slave to so called "fat stacks"
And that's not all, as tall as I feel some days
I know that a "job that pays"
Can put the food on the table, but starve out the soul
And it's a thirst that you can't slake
But every minute that I'm late is 25 cents that I won't make
Fronting every day like I'm not the jealous type
I envy ordinary folks with no direction in life
I see 'em all the time, benеath the streetlights after midnight
Girls and boys, city noise, glowing in black light
Feeling likе I'm missing out on "spice of existence"
But it's not the kinda flavor I sip on, for instance:
Toking, joking, wasting time, lost in liquor lost in
Line 'em up side by side, can't tell the difference if you try, am I right?
And despite all the mess, they're foolish, but happy
Exactly everything I wanted for me, but see I'm torn because
From time to time I wonder what the hell is waiting for me
If I cashed all my ambition in for Netflix and a Forty
The scene that I dreamed of being in
The grass I told myself was greener on the other side
Still in the back of my mind
Downtown surround-sound commotion and haze
I guess I'll view it all in motion through a half-lidded gaze...
[Chorus]
Watching the world outside move in a jagged line
I'm probably just a little crazy cuz I sure don't mind
I gotta spend my days behind a store-front window
Cuz ya can't keep wishing for an "over the rainbow"
The "birds that fly" are leaving chemtrails in the sky
Not at all surprising that I might die trying to fly away
To another time and place, an escapist till the end of my days
But I'm just thinking aloud again
[Verse 2 - Scott SK]
Thinkin'... Dreamin'... Yume wo mieru
Thinkin'... Dreamin'... Yume wo mieru
Thinkin' that I hate my thoughts- they love K, they don't know "Scott"
They know fame, they don't know not
They don't know better, but I do
This the same kid who couldn't graduate high school
This the same dude they call "otaku,"
Label me a "nerd," don't see the pain I've been through
Wish I was like you too, then I wouldn't mind
Wish I knew how to speak my mind without these rhymes
See the days add up, the math is simple now
Divide the bounds, multiply love and add your sound
Obscene amounts of doubt block the clouds, but
The spectrum still visible, watch it from my cubicle
[Chorus]
Watching the world outside move in a jagged line
I'm probably just a little crazy cuz I sure don't mind
I gotta spend my days behind a store-front window
Cuz ya can't keep wishing for an "over the rainbow"
The "birds that fly" are leaving chemtrails in the sky
Not at all surprising that I might die trying to fly away
To another time and place, an escapist till the end of my days
But I'm just thinking aloud again
