lyrics

[Chorus: Chess Galea]

The decisions I’ve made
And the chances I take
I’m speeding on my lonely
Highway, highway
It pains me to say
I feel alone every day
Driving solo so I’ll go
My way, my way

[Verse 1]
I was born to be a sinner
Adorned to be a winner
I’ve had my pride for lunch so I can live with sleep for dinner
We started as beginners
Hustled through the bleakest winters
Trying to pick a perfect path to pack up paper like a printer (chyeeea!)
I strived to reach my goals
The cost was unsupportable
I thought to sell my soul
The loss was unaffordable
I recognise I’m blessed yet I’m feeling so frustrated
How can you flow the greatest and remain so underrated?
Got me running through this maze again
Tripping in a daze again
Questioning myself I wonder is it just a phase again?
Masochistic tendencies are ripping through my brain again
While alkies on the corner drowning thoughts in 50 shades of gin
Guess it makes some sense because they never found a way to win
Guess it makes some sense because they never found a way to swim
Done with taking Ls cuz I was meant to be a winner
No mercy for these demons trying to tempt me with the glimmer, ayy

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
Wake in a cold sweat
I'm in a dark room
God told me write this down and give it volume
He said “don't make threats
But keep it so real”
And soon the world will see your talent like a showreel
So you can place bets
And put them on me
And if you never paid attention you'll be sorry
This my passion and my stress
Nothing more and nothing less
Walk with me a couple steps along the journey to success (chyeeea!)
Till the stands are all demanding me
Fans are understanding me
Jealous reprimanding me
Nobody supplanted me
So focused on my vision that I lost a couple girls
Sacrifice is just provision when you’re trying to rule the world
I do it for my family but they’re already proud of me
Do it for my fans who show me love when others doubted me
Do it for myself because it brings me joy and pleasure
And do it for the world because I want to make it better, ayy

[Chorus]

Wake in a cold sweat
I'm in a dark room
God told me write this down and give it volume
He said “don't make threats
But keep it so real”
And soon the world will see your talent like a showreel

[Chorus]
