Drifter Lyrics

Hit the road, get on my flight fine, touch down, reset

Just gotta get in my right mind

Every second is prime time along for the ride

When this body's my vehicle I'ma drive mine

Lights in the tunnel, illuminate the skyline

A green metal scene not a dream but a pipe climb

Gears march on, Witness the journey of a lifetime

So much struggle but it's relative, Einstein

Going in circles, trying to find the right sign

A one way ticket, we couldn't book it on Priceline

My rearview is clear view in front of me my eyes blind

Shouldn't be driving it in the night time

Easily lost and more easily scared

With the shadows from the bright lights

And high beams glare

Thick like the fog but clouded by doubt and fear

Then you defrost the windows

Everything becomes clear

See here, opportunities still appear

Same trips but the brand new flavor in your ear

More than a death tax year after year

If there's only one shot then it's more than a career

Wrong turns and there's no going back

No slack impact detour after the fact that

Sometimes GPS got in on track but if only I could navigate life

With Google Maps like that

Welcome to your life, welcome to this road

The path's uncharted, gotta choose where you go

On this one way show, please pay the toll

With your hands on your wheel, gotta maintain control

Welcome to your life, welcome to this road

The path's just started, gotta choose where to go

On this one way show, relax, take it slow

It's the return of the drifter

This goes out to my people everywhere

Who in suffering endured more than their fair share

The other kids at school made fun of what you wear

Gym class picked last and never the best player

The resistor, it's the, drifter

Mister, inter-rupt eighty just the descriptor

Table and it's stable so I spit a little quicker

To deliver all the syllables

Advanced to beginner didn't skip ya, Viktor

This is for the new kids

Band nerds, chess clubs that never met Cupid

Every day feeling so intrusive

Past, present, and future all inclusive

Understand that they just got it wrong

In the zone or at home somewhere you belong

They put you in that cage full of rage King Kong

Claiming you were weak but inside so strong

Thinking back remembering the dread

How you hated weekdays lay awake in bed

How you clutched at your sanity by a thin thread

Wishing that your enemies had just been friends

Cause this is your time so they're in debt

For stealing all your shine made it hell instead

You had the answers they're not impressed

Embarrassed and distressed about your interests

Welcome to your life, welcome to this road

The path's uncharted, gotta choose where you go

On this one way show, please pay the toll

With your hands on your wheel, gotta maintain control

Welcome to your life, welcome to this road

The path's just started, gotta choose where to go

On this one way show, relax, take it slow

It's the return of the drifter

This one's for everyone, in no way political

Fine, just a little bit consider it municipal

Brushed off the critical defied all the ridicule

Denied any opportunity to make you miserable

This one's for you in the physical

You in the digital, you all together indivisible

You atypical, you all original

Who severed the umbilical you the individual

Now take a look at you, see it in the clear

Made it out the fog, still standing, now you're here

Lookin' back you was bringing up the rear

See those bullies who you feared

At best are just your peers

And at worst? No need for going there

Got your own path, keep climbing those stairs

It's the path less traveled, now that you're aware

Hold your head high, put your chin up in the air right there

Welcome to your life, welcome to this road

The path's uncharted, gotta choose where you go

On this one way show, please pay the toll

With your hands on your wheel, gotta maintain control

Welcome to your life, welcome to this road

The path's just started, gotta choose where to go

On this one way show, relax, take it slow

It's the return of the drifter
