Romain Grosjean Lyrics

I been livin' fast, I'm about to stall

I'm about to crash, I'm about to fall

Tried to switch gears, but I hit a wall

Tried to run long before I learned to crawl

I been livin' fast, need to slow down

I'm about to crash, I'ma go down

Tried to switch gears, don't know how

Tried to outrun my peers; it just goes south

I feel like my worth's been eviscerated

Put real life in my work unappreciated

Tryna search for commiseration

Seeking liberation... Everything I did, I hate it

I don't wanna be that guy that no more

I been really trying to find my sword

'Cause there were times I swore

I ain't wanna be alive no more

But I overcame that adversity

You're only hurtin' you, It ain't hurtin' me

The only thing I hate is uncertainty

The only thing I crave is a purpose, please

Tell me why I was put on this earth

Every time I try to drive I get put in reverse

It's good that I've learned to never say it couldn't be worse

Got one foot on the gas and one foot in the hearse

I been livin' fast, I'm about to stall

I'm about to crash, I'm about to fall

Tried to switch gears, but I hit a wall

Tried to run long before I learned to crawl

I been livin' fast, need to slow down

I'm about to crash, I'ma go down

Tried to switch gears, don't know how

Tried to outrun my peers; it just goes south

I'm 'bout to drive away, watch the tires turning

Baptized in flames, watch the fire burning

I'm tryin' to get paid my entire thirties

So like Romain Grosjean, I'll retire early

Let the engine rev, 'bout to cross the line

Every time I get ahead, I just fall behind

I wasn't gifted with pole position

Had to fight from the back for the total distance

It feels like I won't finish this race

Watchin' life pass me by while I'm sittin' in place

Askin' why it feels like God spit in my face

Passersby flashin' lights while I'm hittin' the breaks

But I'm veerin' off course fast

I don't remember all this rain in the forecast

We got it out the mud, check the floor mats

I see the light from the sun through the door cracks

One more lap, tryin' to get a podium

They been hatin', thinkin' I ain't notice 'em

They spectatin', waitin' as the motor runs

But when it's over, who knows who will hold the cup

I been livin' fast, I'm about to stall

I'm about to crash, I'm about to fall

Tried to switch gears, but I hit a wall

Tried to run long before I learned to crawl

I been livin' fast, need to slow down

I'm about to crash, I'ma go down

Tried to switch gears, don't know how

Tried to outrun my peers; it just goes south

I'm 'bout to drive away, watch the tires turning

Baptized in flames, watch the fire burning

I'm tryin' to get paid my entire thirties

So like Romain Grosjean, I'll retire early
