lyrics

[VERSE 1]
You ever sat there sayin to yourself, what the fuck?
Twenty-three years old, still stuck in a rut
Shit should’ve popped off by now
It’s frustrating watching my old man working round the clock right now
Plus, he goin in for an op' like now
I’m droppin him off at the hos' and the cost quite foul
I’m still livin in my Grandma crib, and I love her the best
But it’s time I got the fuck up and left
And found a place I can call my home, call my own
So when I meet my sunshine, we can chill and unwind
To something divine with crushed lime
While I send my family on holiday, tell em they should upsize
Tell em when they get back, there’s no more bus rides
Or alarm clocks with buzz times for when it’s unbright
I wanna see all I’m rhymin about, something’s holding me back
I’m doing my best to drive it on out, and it's

[CHORUS]
BURNIN
All the fire inside of me, the desire to try and be, who I aspire to be is
BURNIN
I got things that I want to achieve before I leave that I just gotta cease and it’s
BURNIN
I won’t stop till I get what I want
Know where I’m headin and I ain’t gonna flop because it’s
BURNIN
Anybody get in my way I’m
BURNIN
Yeah I’m
BURNIN

[VERSE 2]
I got dreams of rockin on stage with thousands of fans
Have my lyrics touch they soul, out where they stand
Have em singing the words I wrote out with my hand
Screamin, loud as they can, front row out to the stands
But these dreams of rockin on stage
They seem kinda distant when you work a job that you hate
Plus your boss got you rostered for lates
I can’t quit just yet man, everybody gotta get paid!
I wanna travel the world though, out to Japan
To deserts in Dubai and stand on mountains of sand
But the difference is, I don’t wanna rush back for business shit
To work a shit job, that’s not how I envision this
Sittin stiff with a tie ain’t written in my list of things
I wanna say I did with my life, I’m being strict with this
I gotta do all I can to make it happen
Coz right now I’m at the point where I’m nearly snappin, and it's

[CHORUS]
Repeat

[VERSE 3]
So as I sit with my thoughts of livin large here
In the same place that I been since last year
I need to make things happen in my life
I need to change a few patterns in my life
Coz every year..
I count down with the same people in the same place
Same drink in my hand, in the same state
Sayin the same thing, like man this year went quick
Next year’s gonna be good, I can sense it
Same list of goals, missing the same ticks
Same lame excuses, for the same shit
Same old story, same bullshit, same stress
Same job, same fucking everything else
