Gleaming the Cube
I'm skating out, breaking out of the city
I've never seen dirt look so pretty
My mamma told me to shoot for the stars
The closest I've got is smashing headlights of cars
I'm failing at love, I'm failing at life
I've been failing it all since 1995
From the silk sky I'm falling
Across the harsh ground I'm crawling
When you beat our dreams within an inch of their lives
Is it any wonder we're all young offenders?
I'm shaking out, I don't need your pity
I've never seen filth look so pretty
My teachers told me, I'd never go far
I'm jumping the gun, 360 back to the start
I'm failing at love, I'm failing at life
Its time this underdog took a serious bite
From the silk sky I'm falling
(I know I know I know I know)
Across the harsh ground I'm crawling
(I know I know I know I know)
When you beat our dreams within an inch of their lives
Is it any wonder we're all young offenders?
You know what I don't get? When my wheels are sparking, tearing up and spitting out the gravel, as I find my way down this long road in life, I should feel more free than ever
But I don't. I feel trapped. Trapped by rules. Trapped by the government. Trapped by the ones who are meant to guide us
I've failed things once, I've failed things twice
I ain't failing again no matter the price
I'm taking what's yours, I'm taking what's mine
I'm taking it all one piece at a time
From the silk sky I'm falling
(I know I know I know I know)
Across the harsh ground I'm crawling
(I know I know I know I know)
When you beat our dreams within an inch of their lives
Is it any wonder we're all young offenders?
I've never seen dirt look so pretty
My mamma told me to shoot for the stars
The closest I've got is smashing headlights of cars
I'm failing at love, I'm failing at life
I've been failing it all since 1995
From the silk sky I'm falling
Across the harsh ground I'm crawling
When you beat our dreams within an inch of their lives
Is it any wonder we're all young offenders?
I'm shaking out, I don't need your pity
I've never seen filth look so pretty
My teachers told me, I'd never go far
I'm jumping the gun, 360 back to the start
I'm failing at love, I'm failing at life
Its time this underdog took a serious bite
From the silk sky I'm falling
(I know I know I know I know)
Across the harsh ground I'm crawling
(I know I know I know I know)
When you beat our dreams within an inch of their lives
Is it any wonder we're all young offenders?
You know what I don't get? When my wheels are sparking, tearing up and spitting out the gravel, as I find my way down this long road in life, I should feel more free than ever
But I don't. I feel trapped. Trapped by rules. Trapped by the government. Trapped by the ones who are meant to guide us
I've failed things once, I've failed things twice
I ain't failing again no matter the price
I'm taking what's yours, I'm taking what's mine
I'm taking it all one piece at a time
From the silk sky I'm falling
(I know I know I know I know)
Across the harsh ground I'm crawling
(I know I know I know I know)
When you beat our dreams within an inch of their lives
Is it any wonder we're all young offenders?
