Rat Race

Rat race, rat race you all inside a rat race
Rat race, rat race the rat's inside a rat cage
Rat race, rat race you all inside a rat race
Rat race, rat race the rat's inside a rat cage

Been placed in a cage from an early on age
And I began to wonder I wonder is there another way?
A way to make it out yeah I gotta make it out, awake from my slumber imma make it out today!
Arise from my slumber and I take a look around and I look at my surroundings and then I start to frown
I frown at this world in many ways it's not pleasing
Trapped in a cage and it's drugs I've been eating
Drugs designed to nullify drugs designed to hypnotize
Been stuck on them so long I am blind I can't use my eyes
But now I have this vision a futuristic mission but who been putting drugs in my mouth? I hate to mention...

"Who do you think you are? You think you can escape my little game?"
"Yeah! I'll escape! I'll be different I'll beat you in your own game!"
"No you won't!"
"I'll be different, I swear!"

Talking down on me they always talking down on me
I tell them all my goals and I swear it's something that they can't believe
Joke about my mind say it's riddled with insanity
Been stuck alone so long I am tryna find a remedy
Ay ay, down for a fight I'm doing what's right
Dress like I'm seven I'm wearing all neon because I just know that my future is bright
Supporters they with me can't do it alone cause I ain't no Holden from Catcher in the Rye
Think like I'm Yoda I'm strong like a Jedi do or do not cause there won't be a try
Do or do not cause there won't be a try, do or do not cause there won't be a try
Aim for the stars so I'll shoot till I die, cracks in the ceiling is that really a crime?
Try to chain me up imma never do my time, try to keep me quiet but I'll never be a mime
This world'll be mine you can try to take me down but I swear I'll be a king wear a big golden crown
Ay, wear a big golden crown, wanna see my kingdom? Just take a look around
All of the lions they scheme against me I'm the lion king they Scar and they wanna see me bleed
Eye covers off we see what it's meant to be
Playing by the rules is so disheartening
I know that imma do it just watch and wait and see
I leave behind my herd yeah forget complacently
Talking down on me they always talking down on me I tell them all my goals and I swear it's something that they can't believe
Joke about my mind say it's riddled with insanity
Been stuck alone so long I am tryna find a remedy
