The Cycle Lyrics by Expressway

Live Free, Die Young

2017

[Verse]
It's the cycle
Can't go back to the style
Of before or they'll go wild
Like it's the end of it awhile
I'm over here living some fake life
What the hell do I do, I can't even think right
It's the cycle of this world
What to do with it, I'm not sure
But I know that to think of it
I think that this isn't a gift
I think that this is absolute *shit*
And that this cycle of release dates and drum kits and leased waits and good wits is soon to never end
A non-mechanical life was good while it lasted
And I know that it will only return faster
And nowadays I don't have someone to back me but I still back her
They always dumb me down to some damn rapper
They always want to throw me away like some damn wrapper
But they still get hit with greatness even after
Sometimes I can't stand it, they want me to jump the rafters
“You've been well known all along, what's your deal?”
Problem is, all that notoriety never needed to feel real
Resort my life to some film reel
If something bad happens, cut it out and conceal
And when it's finished, put it in a seal and send it to get a million dollar deal
That is if they can live that long, 'cause I'm immortal
I'm immoral
That's more like it
