Take Off Your Man Suit

We're always running late in life, no time to build our dreams up right
We're all tied to the clock in our chest, without warning to when the beating ticks will end

There is a number to the seconds we possess
Becoming less while I've been trying to build a life of value
It's been a cycle, I've spent so many years when it only took a few to gain what I now have

Can I please stop wasting my time?

Well it all comes down to the culture context
Because our world is designed to spin without interval
From the time that we were taught to learn
There is no system for us to discern what we live for
And why we earn our precious hours off the clock
I want to live right now, not at the pace of the crowd

And now today, I feel so scared we've already lost our chance

Our ticking hearts have never left us from the beginning
Can we plant the roots for progress, or is it to late to start?
Because it never seems to work out, to find people with the time to pursue this dream

It's never seen why the trouble with committing is held so closely
Can anyone stay for the love and not the gain?
I know it's rough to spend these hours when you've worked so hard to find a time apart
But this choice is what defines you

We come as one with a message to write for everyone
Who takes a part in refusing the trend of leaving out your heart
When it seems not to fit, of giving up on your purpose again

And if the world had 28 days would you be the same?
Would you act this way when reality holds less than you had hoped?
Just like a kid who wants to save the world
Can I quit living so wasteful and keep ahold of the present...
