Lyrics

[Verse 1] From the first cry of a babe 'Til the age of 25 I searched my soul to find myself But I'm still unrecognized One-way streets, walls of concrete Two restless feet's all I've got Oh Lord, I'm so afraid With third of my life shot [Chorus] And I get out of breath Watching the world spin so fast My future becomes my past My mind gets hung so bad That I get out of breath [Verse] It's alright for the successful To tell you "Take your time Have patience, understanding" While the suicide rates climb I work all day to try and pay back Debts that won't go down I can't say that I'm lost No, I just ain't been found [Chorus] And I get out of breath Watching the world spin so fast My future becomes my past My mind gets hung so bad That I get out of breath [Verse 3] People spend more time Asking forgiveness than being good Everyone's out stealing Or home plannin' how they could Double standards make good Band-Aids That strip us of our pride Our morals have decayed, yeah And this I cannot bide [Chorus] And I get out of breath Watching the world spin so fast My future becomes my past My life gets hung so bad That I get out of breath
