lyrics

5AM on Monday I'm running out the door
sit on I-270 an hour, maybe more
got my house in Fredneck with 5 beds and 4 bath
and tell myself that one day I will have the last laugh

My dreams go for miles and miles
they don't end though I've been through some tough trials
I won't stand for your foolish denials
and you’re never gonna keep me down
no, my dreams are bigger than this town

You tried to make me think you were the best I could do
told me lots of stories, not a one of them was true
standing on the platform, staring at the track
Shady Grove to Union, hell I’ll never look back

Each stop it’s like my life passes me by
Time to make a change I’ve got to try
