Oddisee
Race
[Verse 1]
Head up, hands tied made magic
Hand cuffs disappeared, tan lines where the bands cut
It’ll heal, sit on hills I had to climb
Damn if I, ever fall off I’m a different build
Dandelion in a field of land mines
Fit with shields thick as steel
Quick to kill bad vibes had enough
Cups filled added lime to rough deals
Agave, some mint leaves a mock-tail
Oxtail tail, add the but, just when I thought that I would get to chill
And what, hard days interfere
Black luck, fit the heels
My shoes, jog pace a long race
In a wheel pause take in the fact that I get to chill
Small things bigger deals
Entered my golden phase
While we’re afraid to age even harder to hold the page
I learned to grow with grace, gotta let go to gain
Now I know they way is not to think that I’m owed a thing

[Chorus]
Sitting in my car, in the driveway
I’ve been home a while, but my mind's late
It’s the only time that I daydream
Getting really hard to find a quiet space
Open up the door and the world screams
Getting overwhelmed by the high pace
Something’s on my mind I deserve peace
Until the door swings, race
[Verse 2]
So what’s next, I don’t know, I just know I won’t rest
Unless, success comes first I won’t get
Home yet, an idea an address, IP
I dream of things I don’t own yet
Likely, I never will, might be is enough to entice me to get it still
Bet I get rich or in loan debt
Both yes, credit skills better build
Pricey when everything’s placed on a pedestal
At a height far too late to let ever spill
Tipping point, missed the point if you believe I ever chill
Wish I could, don’t know how tried a couple times but I find
If I slow it down, it feels like I read a will
Dramatic’s a understatement, go off on nothing major
Imagine when it is, If all emotions my one is anger
Favor the toughest wagers, alive when I’m brushing danger
Fear in place of drive no surprise I ain’t stuck yet

[Chorus]
Sitting in my car, in the driveway
I’ve been home a while, but my mind's late
It’s the only time that I daydream
Getting really hard to find a quiet space
Open up the door and the world screams
Getting overwhelmed by the high pace
Something’s on my mind I deserve peace
Until the door swings, race
