Escape Velocity Lyrics

I don't know how much longer till I succumb to the pressures of society

They will have you fight over the crumbs

A quick path to heightened anxiety

Combat this with substances to feel numb

The enemy will be sobriety

This is how they keep us under their thumb

We forget our nature and where we come from

All my life I've tried to climb out of this pit

All this strife could never lead me to quit

Am I close to escape velocity

Regardless, I'll cultivate my ferocity

Can't find anything to hold onto when they sink their claws into you

We are forced to live one hue

Can't change course

We are all just slaves

Feels like we're digging our own graves

Their path for us is already paved

Ima fuck off to a far away land

This routine I can no longer stand

This is where I draw my line in the sand

Leave behind everything that is bland

On my grind I live my own plan

Work for myself and do what I can

Build up my kingdom while they are sipping rum

I will beat my own drum while everyone plays dumb

Am I close to escape velocity?

Am I close to escape velocity?

All my life I've tried to climb out of this pit

All this strife could never lead me to quit

Am I close to escape velocity

Regardless, I'll cultivate my ferocity
