I wrote this song for the times when it feels like everyone's getting ahead except for you. The baggage we carry feels too heavy sometimes.
lyrics
I wanna know how you got so far
Hoping that you'll be a star
My body's tired of waiting around
While everybody's putting on your crown
But I've never been any good at
Being one to calculate
How to carry this much weight
And walk it straight
Somehow it's got to come around
And maybe I can gain some ground
But my laws got rules
And It's a taste hard to wash down
I let go of my pride
There ain't much left to hide
