[Intro]
              
I don't wanna

   


[Verse 1]

Rat race, plac

e to place, ad

ding weight

Tendencies on 

repeat, innit

Benefit with a

 shoe with no 

lace

Take the seat 

with the creas

e on it

I don't mind i

f it's lonely,

I don't mind i

f it's fair

I don't care, 

you control me

,

Leading me any

where


[Chorus]
              
I don't wanna 

            
backslide to w

          
here I've star

ted from,
             
There's no cha

              
nce I will sha

         
ke this again,
              
'Cause I feel 

             
the pull, wate

            
r's over my he

ad,
              
Strength enoug

      
h for one more

 time
              
Reach my hand 

 
above the tide
             
I'll take anyt

         
hing you have
              
If you could t

     
hrow me a line
            
I should've lo

ved you better

,
              
Do you think t

    
hat now's the 

time
                 N.C.
You should let go? It's over my head


[Verse 2]

Bad place on a

 hundred dolla

r bass,

Kind of wishin

g that I never

 did Saturday
          
Is that a stai

n? You should 

change
              
Are you doing 

              
good? Did you 


solve all of y

our problems?

Thanks for asking, in a way but,

Accidentally u

ncovered a new

 one yesterday

,
     
What happened 

to what I brus

hed under the 

rug,
            
I used to be t

              
he champion of

              
 the world you

       
 can't see,

Now I'm drowning in logistics


[Chorus]
              
I don't wanna
