Anyway Lyrics

I've been on this road

For way too long

So long

They say I should fold

Are dreams so wrong?

So wrong

Floating in the void of space

Doesn't matter what I say

Who can hear me anyway?

Life on replay

I have heard so many say

They don't think there's any way

Dreams that we just throw away

Feelings I can't downplay

Feeling like a runaway

In my room I hideaway

Hoping for some better days

I go on anyway

I go on anyway

I go on anyway

I go on anyway, anyway

Sometimes I don't know

How I'll even get by

On my wits I rely

It's a wonder why I try

When it didn't work the first

Or the nine-hundredth time

Let's just call it "well rehearsed"

Guess conviction is a crime

They say "If I were you" and

Since you're me

Why not try to censor me?

We all know what I follow

It'll be a hollow victory

(Fuck it)

Obtrusive memories

Reclusive tendencies

I lost every friend I had

And then even my enemies

People say I should resign

Cuz these rhymes, these lines

Giving them my energy, my time

And I've barely seen a dime

I get a fraction of a cent per spin

I'm divided on the issue

My two cents was spent

It don't pay these past due bills

Getting traction costs more than

An addict pays to use pills

If I didn't do this I would crack

So with or without a win

I'd give the shirt off my back

I'd give that and the skin

Floating in the void of space

Doesn't matter what I say

Who can hear me anyway?

Life on replay

I have heard so many say

They don't think there's any way

Dreams that we just throw away

Feelings I can't downplay

Feeling like a runaway

In my room I hideaway

Hoping for some better days

I go on anyway

I go on anyway

I go on anyway

I go on anyway, anyway

Somedays I'm an expert

Other days a fraud

I dunno what's next but

I know this system's flawed

Got no time to rest up

I can't afford a pause

In life I mighta messed up

But in dreams I hear applause

Coin jars upended when

Food stamps get suspended then

I'm amped

Off to offend again

I'm not gonna pretend

I'm in the zone

Quit asking if my towel's thrown in

I'll stop when I'm on top the throne

I'll settle down when

I'm dust and bones

Our dreams can't really be outgrown

And I've always known

Have to find my own way home

Weren't we told we can be anything

When we're old and grown?

What, do I have to be your clone?

I feel no need to atone

Let he who never had a dream

Throw the first stone

Floating in the void of space

Doesn't matter what I say

Who can hear me anyway?

Life on replay

I have heard so many say

They don't think there's any way

Dreams that we just throw away

Feelings I can't downplay

Feeling like a runaway

In my room I hideaway

Hoping for some better days

I go on anyway

I go on anyway

I go on anyway

I go on anyway, anyway

I go on anyway

I go on anyway

I go on anyway, anyway
