Years - Heiruspecs

I don’t need the hype man, just give me the life

I don’t want a bite, I want the whole damned slice

Got me some advice, they said keep your circle tight

'Cause the whispers in your ear will tell you wrong or right

Everyone I ever hated I had love for too

What you do defines you

So they say to stay true

Stay you and let them do what them do

Never worry your head with how they feel in them mental

My pencil to the nub, my eraser gone

Replaced pain with song

How many times I go long

And times we throw strong after questions came?

This is why people say that life’s a game

If we tame every lion then the jungle is ours

But the victory is sour because they’re just cats

If we conquer every frontier and know every secret

Horizons stop calling

It’s just a stupid map

It’s a game, it’s a race

Every face every place

Every one I know

Every year I’ve grown

We can tally all the years

With the blood, sweat, and tears

Everything I know

What I’ve got to show

And that there’s a shame, my son tought me wonder

Tought me how dependent we all are on each other

Showed me that the pressure we assume could break pipes

Just exposes the rust so we can heal our scars

Bars

Motivated by the weekend

And dedicated to the moment

Please show me my opponent

Please tell me there’s a limit

I’ma set new goals

I’ma show that my stripes are made of gold

And so as a kid on my bike racing down the sidewalk

Now I’m grown, I’m supposed to keep that sidewalk clear

Moved my mom out my childhood home, 'cause that’s life

Walk away, but always keep the memories you hold dear

It’s a game, it’s a race

Every face every place

Every one I know

Every year I’ve grown

We can tally all the years

With the blood, sweat, and tears

Everything I know

What I’ve got to show

Lay it bare like a brick

Pour that mortar on thick

That’s life

Them’s the breaks

That might be the meaning

For sure those are the things that define all your leanings

For the beating of the drums and the fog of war

These are things that really tell us what we’re here for

If I huff and puff and blow the house down

Then them silly pigs didn’t do a good job

Wood and straw from all the people that just haven’t figured out

Get it out, it’s not about covering every flaw

It’s a game, it’s a race

Every face every place

Every one I know

Every year I’ve grown

We can tally all the years

With the blood, sweat, and tears

Everything I know

What I’ve got to show
