As a kid I saw through open eyes from a beat inside my chest If a blessing is a lie, then I’m a gift called ignorance Inquire for attention; receive an empty hand A piss poor birth right, eighty-four, and long drives killed my innocence I spent miles so you could drive from pain And the time that you wasted in a life before my wake You bet your own worth, but now I’m paying for those debts Divorce your vows, but not your fucking kid You bought love with weekend money A new mom who said she loved me Write me a price tag that I’ll never answer for The kid inside died with the drives on eighty-four I thought I knew this would be something that I’d overcome But now I know that uneasy hands will keep driving Unstable minds will quit fighting, but you can keep driving I was raised by misdirection Keep driving; I was born to ease the tension A new life, how will you live it A new child, empty your wallet I lost youth in a life that won’t last I’m the reminder of your troubled past Keep on driving away; you’ll never turn back
