Faster Lyrics by Violent J

The Shining

2009

[Intro]
"The loss of sleep, one's inability to concentrate, pay attention, one's inability to focus, [?] hyperactive personality disorder, untreatable, untreatable."

[Verse 1]
I'm running racing, freeway chasing
Climbing fast increase the pace and
Pick this shit up come on with it
Rip this shit let's go on and get it
Heart beat riding picking up motion
Spark that shit chase that explosion
Catch that action feed me thrills
Wipe that sweat up pop them pills
Death is closing in we crookin'
Turn that fire up I'm cookin'
Panic lookin' twitching climbing
Trouble I'm in, tragic rising
All surprising, sound of sirens
Peaked the pressure, weapons firing
Mash to the pedals, crank that shit up
Beat the clock, let's rock so get up

[Chorus]
Why can't I settle down? (Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up!)
Why can't I slow it down? (Pick it up, Pick it up, Pick it up!)

[Verse 2]
Sweat is burning up my eyes
And up the center lane I'm flying
Hyper speeds I'm slippin' quick
I'm swiftly falling off the cliff
I turn the wheels with no control
Into the blackness of this hole
And peep the ticker, pull the trigger
Past the bullet falling quicker
Barely breathing, super speeding
Interweaving through the treason
Ultra forward nitro levels
Deeper than the reddest devils
Rocket fuels, sonic behavior
Mental meltdown ain't no savior
Feel the blast, shattered glass
Fired up and moving fast

[Chorus]
Why can't I settle down? (Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up!)
Why can't I slow it down? (Pick it up, Pick it up, Pick it up!)
Why can't I settle down? (Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up!)
Why can't I slow it down? (Pick it up, Pick it up, Pick it up!)

[Bridge]
Faster, higher, burning, fire
Faster, (I don't wanna burn up) higher, burning, fire
Lose control much (Faster) Take me up much (Higher)
Put me out I'm (Burning) Set my brain on (Fire)
Lose control much (Faster) Take me up much (Higher)
Put me out I'm (Burning) Set my brain on (Fire)

[Verse 3]
I tried the drugs, can't relax
Here comes the train I'm on the tracks
Here comes the bullet and I'm stuck
Tell me why I'm always fucked?
Another tragedy inside
Nowhere left for me to hide
Ain't no place to get away
Ain't no way to save the day
Ain't no cover from the rain
Ain't no escape from the pain
Ain't nobody I can blame
Why am I fucking insane?

[Chorus]
Why (Why can't I?) can't I (Slow it down) settle down? (What's in my brain) (Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up!)
Why (Why can't I?) can't I (Slow it down) slow it down? (What's in my brain) (Pick it up, Pick it up, Pick it up!)
Why (Why can't I?) can't I (Slow it down) settle down? (What's in my brain) (Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up!)
Why (Why can't I?) can't I (Slow it down) slow it down? (What's in my brain) (Pick it up, Pick it up, Pick it up!)

[Outro]
"The loss of sleep, one's inability to concentrate, pay attention, one's inability to focus, [?] hyperactive personality disorder, untreatable"
