TEAMNOSLEEP by Kooleidoscope Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Tell me again about the moves you've been making
Tell me again about the sacrificial risk you're taking
I'm was stressing 6 years, already had my way paved
Then I fell in love again, began acting all kinds of crazy
Fell into my music; something I'm more than used to
Maybe I was debating escaping fate, before it saved me
Sweet talking, the cadence of the beat banging
Family getting pissed and pessimistic as I'm changing
To keep it real, you can keep your seal of approval
And the mutual pursuit in my permanent removal
From everything pure, unpolluted, truly beautiful
I've adopted an option I couldn't fully do in school
You're on the job, living life within a cubicle
I'm digging in my pockets, pulling out a bloody cuticle
Seems unlikely, but maybe in the future, we'll
Walk side-by-side again, whether I win or I pretend
[Hook]
Rise and grind for another busy week
My fingers tweet hashtag #TEAMNOSLEEP
Stuck between the masses, depleted all my chances
Yeah, this is what's become of me
[Verse 2]
See, I disagree with like 99%
Of people living life just to pay the fucking rent
Use a life savings, get less back, and spend
And still act like you're about it? Let's stop playing pretend
To tell the truth, you're just another pollutant
Caught between A and B in today's daily commute
The reason you're in school is to meet society's rule
An obligatory chore, in search of something more to do
You fell into a civil view that forces you to choose
Before you feel the slip of youth and hit big 22
Shy of 23, rely on mommy, I can't even move
Still trying to make a point, whatever I got to prove
I don't know how I'mma win it, Mom. I promise not to lose
I do it for you and Ash. That I refuse to resort to
Superficial support got my attitude distorted
Ignored when the truth has never been as clear before
[Hook]
Tell me again about the moves you've been making
Tell me again about the sacrificial risk you're taking
I'm was stressing 6 years, already had my way paved
Then I fell in love again, began acting all kinds of crazy
Fell into my music; something I'm more than used to
Maybe I was debating escaping fate, before it saved me
Sweet talking, the cadence of the beat banging
Family getting pissed and pessimistic as I'm changing
To keep it real, you can keep your seal of approval
And the mutual pursuit in my permanent removal
From everything pure, unpolluted, truly beautiful
I've adopted an option I couldn't fully do in school
You're on the job, living life within a cubicle
I'm digging in my pockets, pulling out a bloody cuticle
Seems unlikely, but maybe in the future, we'll
Walk side-by-side again, whether I win or I pretend
