Sideways

Lyrics

[Intro (Sampled)] When I went out this morning Just as the day was dawning [Chorus: [?]] In a day to day rat race I'm trapped in a maze Colour blind in the spectrum stuck in a purple haze I'm a either blind and shine or fall off and fade Looking for the straight and narrow but I'm travelling sideways In a day to day rat race I'm trapped in a maze Colour blind in the spectrum stuck in a purple haze I'm a either blind and shine or fall off and fade Looking for the straight and narrow but I'm travelling sideways [Verse 1: [?]] I delve in the rut I'm more than just stuck Three-sixty-five days I'm late but leaps give me twenty-four to catch up Pouring in cups depression i sip Drowning my sorrows till tomorrow making me more ill equipped To try to fit the norm and conform to the majority Opportunity knocks buts its a gamble like the lottery Luck keeps on mocking me the world is on top of me Crush kill destroy the stress of this monopoly Paid my dues but nows its just the rent for my property Its expenses and bills be a poor mans policy Harder than smokers arteries even though its a part of me Healthy is what I'd rather be wealthy is just a luxury I made these dollars with a poor mans sense Not saving for a rainy day so I'm exposed to the elements Pedestrian thoughts keep me pacing through this maze Looking for the straight and narrow but I'm travelling sideways [Chorus: [?]] In a day to day rat race I'm trapped in a maze Colour blind in the spectrum stuck in a purple haze I'm a either blind and shine or fall off and fade Looking for the straight and narrow but I'm travelling sideways In a day to day rat race I'm trapped in a maze Colour blind in the spectrum stuck in a purple haze I'm a either blind and shine or fall off and fade Looking for the straight and narrow but I'm travelling sideways [Verse 2: [?]] It's just a fraction of what it takes to regain traction To much relaxing got me living like a Paxton So it's time for action no thinking in captions now I'm speaking out Deleting doubt believing every word that's from our mouths All facts i found from the south made ground into town Fuck where I'm bound I'm only living for right here and now And all obstacle's guaranteed there going down Until I've mastered the art of expression well through this sound Just how it has to be being me living in the third degree Turning me burning me eternally every issue that concerning me I'm dealing with one by one Never under done each one of us our chance will come Through the straight and narrow self guided without an arrow To give direction affection will overcome the shallow Done to the bone and marrow even though trapped in a maze I keep on pushing forward but I'm travelling sideways [Chorus: [?]] In a day to day rat race I'm trapped in a maze Colour blind in the spectrum stuck in a purple haze I'm a either blind and shine or fall off and fade Looking for the straight and narrow but I'm travelling sideways In a day to day rat race I'm trapped in a maze Colour blind in the spectrum stuck in a purple haze I'm a either blind and shine or fall off and fade Looking for the straight and narrow but I'm travelling sideways [Verse 3: [?]] Emotions cause confusion, confusions lead to reactions Illusions bringing conclusions,solutions let interactions Of responding to your brain for health or material gains Loosing hope just start again don't put yourself through the pain Other wise you fall again but just deeper into a spiral Defeated your feeling stained left your brain thinking denial Failed the trial for a while did you contemplate your choices Complicated you hesitated your truest inner voices Now be wise you should rise above and don't compromise Cause the prize will surprise and slowly materialise Being proud is saying sorry even when you think your right Despite the verbal fights dislikes kill angry nights See the future never comes when it arrives its called the present Many people rant and rave but never do by acting hesitant Heaven sent your highway find your way and start your day Shortest way to point a is going straight and not sideways [Chorus (Extended): [?]] In a day to day rat race I'm trapped in a maze Colour blind in the spectrum stuck in a purple haze I'm a either blind and shine or fall off and fade Looking for the straight and narrow but I'm travelling sideways In a day to day rat race I'm trapped in a maze Colour blind in the spectrum stuck in a purple haze I'm a either blind and shine or fall off and fade Looking for the straight and narrow but I'm travelling sideways In a day to day rat race I'm trapped in a maze Colour blind in the spectrum stuck in a purple haze I'm a either blind and shine or fall off and fade Looking for the straight and narrow but I'm travelling sideways In a day to day rat race I'm trapped in a maze Colour blind in the spectrum stuck in a purple haze I'm a either blind and shine or fall off and fade Looking for the straight and narrow but I'm travelling sideways [Outro] Gotta keep on breathing, gotta keep on living Gotta keep on track and face my demons Gotta keep on shifting my wisdom to life and its pace Looking for the straight and narrow but I'm travelling sideways Gotta keep on breathing, gotta keep on living Gotta keep on track and face my demons Gotta keep on shifting my wisdom to life and its pace Looking for the straight and narrow but I'm travelling sideways Gotta keep on breathing, gotta keep on living Gotta keep on track and face my demons Gotta keep on shifting my wisdom to life and its pace Looking for the straight and narrow but I'm travelling sideways Gotta keep on breathing, gotta keep on living Gotta keep on track and face my demons Gotta keep on shifting my wisdom to life and its pace Looking for the straight and narrow but I'm travelling sideways
