I’ve got time cause I’m just dickin' around Living just for me Selfishly Cause I don’t want To do anything Gotta wake and do my 9-5 Make sure that I make enough so I survive I’m home it’s bliss What bullshit I believe that nothing changes Nothing changes How should I proceed? When there’s no tomorrow No tomorrow There’s no point to proceed When we’re just tired Waiting for a break To escape this endless machine I know I’m wired just to focus on the future Gotta wake and do my 9-5 I don’t think I’ve got much left I feel deprived But I move on Forward endlessly I believe that nothing changes Nothing changes How should I proceed? When there’s no tomorrow No tomorrow There’s no point to proceed Yet I move on I move forward endlessly Why? Don’t know why I’m just moving instinctively I’ll disappoint myself anytime But I Don’t want to Disappoint my friends Disappoint my family Disappoint the ones that matter most Oh! That’s why I keep moving on My tomorrow song

One morning I would try to write this Yet nothing ever seems to flow the way I Want it to, cause baby that’s the blues You try to tell me I’m just lazy. Maybe! But I can’t move my body baby I’m sure this is the blues I need some time to revitalize It’s hard to step outside These weights on me I can’t crawl I feel like a broken doll Where’s my stress? I feel less Where’s my stress? Why do I chose to be selfish when nothing I do makes me happy and I cry and I cry I just want to be someone you think is funny, funny Want to make you laugh, want to make you smile honey, honey I want you Tonight Buy my drinks this time Tonight Where can I focus, my minds hazy Less oxygen has hit my brain up lately My cigarettes have made me dumber Now I can barely function sober I need some time to revitalize It’s hard to step outside These weights on me I can’t crawl I feel like a broken doll Where’s my stress? I feel less Where’s my stress? this time Tonight Buy my drinks this time Tonight

Rab's Theme 03:33
I believe we've got some time To unload all these lies It’s a play that’s fun to watch But it’s a shallow botch There’s no heart in this These actors are shit What is this garbage It feels counterfeit Just relax and enjoy the show Maybe you'll learn something you didn’t know Perhaps there’s more to this than I can see Some obscure indie flick that super artsy No I’ve had enough This shit sucks Where’s the heart in your actions You look dead to me Lifelessly Content with nothing Fuck all this You should quit Cause it’s all bullshit And you know it is I do understand continuing the plan is comfortable But aren’t you tired of all the fake? But aren’t you tired? I’m tired of watching you waste potential Clap your hands if you're not happy and you know it Clap your hands if you're done with all the bull Shit Clap your hand if you're done

When I feel overwhelmed It’s like I have a door That’s shut so I can’t breathe It contains everything My fear will leak outside I tremble tremble And I never feel like dancing But my body starts to move when I feel like everything is out of place fear dies and I’m surprised Now I feel I’m in charge A calmness on my heart But I know it never ends So I know what to do And I never feel like dancing But my body starts to move when I feel like everything out of place fear dies and I’m surprised And I never feel like dancing But my body starts to move Why do your feet move? Anxious? Yes! I can’t breathe at all Relax Be still Count to five Reboot your life Is it enough to feel alive? I don’t think so I need the fear to move me I need it’s passionate drive I need the artful clarity If I’m going to thrive My fear's my gift

I've got this feeling Some ecstasy when I see this beauty And it’s amazing How easy it is when I see the beauty Now that my eyes are open I can enjoy the things I’ve took for granted My new beginning My rage, my pride, my petty side It all was distracting me I want to feel this way every day Please don’t let me forget I want to spend each day Like it’s the last I have left I waste enough time Trashed enough time Feeling hopeless over nothing Yet still I’m blessed cause I’ve got some more time To appreciate this feeling I feel so aligned Guess it just takes time Hey guess what That was our harmonic part It is the, simple things That makes me happy Hopefully I don’t lose sight of where I’m at This blissfulness Perspective just seems like it’s a fragile mess But I can’t give up when I See the beauty when I try I just hope I don’t fall in the same trap again Hey guess what That’s our bass solo part I'm losing sight you see Of the simple beauty I’m failing once again Depression's back for revenge And I Can’t stand it when I feel this way This is Jayson’s favorite part This horrible dread inside my head But I keep trying
