00:00Yeah
00:00Check
00:04I fight the weight of expectation
00:09A silent heavy coat
00:11The subtle art of faking smiles
00:15Get stuck inside my throat
00:17They see the destination
00:21But they never see the climb
00:22The thousand little battles
00:24That I'm fighting in my mind
00:25My dreams are on a credit plan
00:27Paying interest with my time
00:29While algorithms sell my piece
00:30A dollar at a time
00:32This gravity is pulling hard
00:33It's testing all my glue
00:35The person that I'm meant to be
00:36Is arguing with the one I grew into
00:38Just trying to stand up right
00:41Beneath the sky's great dawn
00:44Feeling gravity's poor
00:47Just trying to find my way back home
00:50The world spins fast
00:53My feet are stuck in clay and chrome
00:57Just trying to stand up right
00:59Feeling gravity's pulled on my bones
01:05I scroll through other people's wins
01:08I highlight real of pride
01:09While my own victories are quiet on the lonely inside
01:12They talk of the grind like it's a badge you gotta wear
01:15But never mention how the grind can leave your spirit bare
01:18I'm building my own ladder with the rungs they said were weak
01:21With callous hands and lessons that the arrogant can't speak
01:24This pressure either makes a diamond or it makes a collapse
01:27There ain't no in-between, no redoes, no perhaps
01:30Just trying to stand upright
01:32Beneath the sky's great dawn
01:35Feeling gravity's poor
01:38Just trying to find my way back home
01:42The world spins fast
01:45My feet are stuck in clay and chrome
01:48Just trying to stand upright
01:51Feeling gravity's pulled on my bones
01:54Ohhhh
02:13Oh
