Going Thru the Motions

I remember Saturday mornings with a cereal bowls
All the homies outside, gotta put on my clothes
Playin tag hide and seek, gotta drink from the hose
Street lights be coming on, every go home

Nowadays we don't play we just get up and work
Start to understand why my moms stay goin to church
Now I'm grown, no friends everybody been hurt
Lost family, lost love... maybe if I could

Build me a time machine I swear I'd go back
To the place where nothing matter but my cartoons
Where I find quality in the simple things... yea... yea... yea
Please don't bother me I really don't need no company
But, if I ever build me a time machine I swear I'd go back...
But for now I guess that I'm

Going thru the motions
Going thru the motions
You know that I'm going thru the motions
Going thru the motions
Missing those days when I was
Young and I was
Free to do as I please
For now I'm just
Goin thru the motions
Goin thru the motions

I Don't got a lot of time for no company
Stay lonely cuz my friends got no time for me
Thank God, get this money, gotta stay out the streets
Heath Slater, I kids, you know they gotta eat

I been waiting for my turn, fell asleep on the bench
Took a loss, some of my friends, I heard from em since
Now I'm grown I understand: everybody got plans and they just don't work out
Maybe if i could

Build me a time machine I swear I'd go back
To the place where nothing matter but my cartoons
Where I find quality in the simple things... yea... yea... yea
Please don't bother me I really don't need no company
But, if I ever build me a time machine I swear I'd go back...
But for now I guess that I'm

Going thru the motions
Going thru the motions
You know that I'm going thru the motions
Going thru the motions
Missing those days when I was
Young and I was
Free to do as I please
Just
Goin thru the motions
Goin thru the motions
