A Place to Hide
Started getting lost in books
Now I'm trapped by knowing looks
Seems everyone knows who I am
(gimme gimme gimme a solution!)
An open sea, possibility
A trade-up from the pond for me
A big fish aspires to a man
(so gimme gimme gimme evolution!)
College bound
And I'm gonna astound
You've told me all this time
Save me from this self-inflicted future
It's all laid out in front of me
But I just want to run away
Did you ever know what you wanted?
Built a castle so I could flaunt it
At least it's given me a place to hide
Accomplish this, accomplish that
Hope it makes up for the things I lack
I don't think that sounds like a plan
(gimme gimme, gimme a solution!)
Pages turn and I can't turn back
Upsold my skills, and my heart's jet-black
I should be grateful that I can
(with ruthless execution!)
College bound
And I'm gonna astound
No pressure with the climb
No pressure
Save me from this self-inflicted future
It's all laid out in front of me
But I just want to run away
Did you ever know what you wanted?
Built a castle so I could flaunt it
At least it's given me a place to hide
It's not that I want to mindlessly rebel
A friend felt the same way, said his grades put him in hell
Started chasing highs 'cause it wasn't in the script
Went from the Ivy League to the IV drip
I wanna be an icon
So I con everyone I know
I'll keep holding on to show
That I can make it
It's not that hard to fake it
Save me from this self-inflicted future
It's all laid out in front of me
But I just want to run away
Did you ever know what you wanted?
Built a castle so I could flaunt it
At least it's given me a place to
University bound
Breaking outta this town
I'm gonna astound
Cause I'm just so profound
I've left the playground
The familiar sounds
I don't need you around
Please just give me a crown
Now I'm trapped by knowing looks
Seems everyone knows who I am
(gimme gimme gimme a solution!)
An open sea, possibility
A trade-up from the pond for me
A big fish aspires to a man
(so gimme gimme gimme evolution!)
College bound
And I'm gonna astound
You've told me all this time
Save me from this self-inflicted future
It's all laid out in front of me
But I just want to run away
Did you ever know what you wanted?
Built a castle so I could flaunt it
At least it's given me a place to hide
Accomplish this, accomplish that
Hope it makes up for the things I lack
I don't think that sounds like a plan
(gimme gimme, gimme a solution!)
Pages turn and I can't turn back
Upsold my skills, and my heart's jet-black
I should be grateful that I can
(with ruthless execution!)
College bound
And I'm gonna astound
No pressure with the climb
No pressure
Save me from this self-inflicted future
It's all laid out in front of me
But I just want to run away
Did you ever know what you wanted?
Built a castle so I could flaunt it
At least it's given me a place to hide
It's not that I want to mindlessly rebel

Cause I'm just so profound

The familiar sounds
I don't need you around
Please just give me a crown
