00:07The sun comes up, I'm feelin' new The story that was always told
00:14To work so hard and stay in line And never let your spirit shine
00:20The sun comes up, I'm feelin' new The story that was always told
00:27To work so hard and stay in line And never let your spirit shine
00:34I pushed her head for many years Through all this dress and all the fee
00:41I thought the race would never end With nothing left for me to stay
00:48The sun and light was filled with dread With emails dancin' in my head
00:51I woke up tired every day To earn a check and get my pay
00:55The managers would call to me In a car inside a big machine
00:58I lived a life on someone's clock A prisoner behind the lock
01:01I stepped away from the machine To see the things I've never seen
01:08I chose to leave the wheel at last And let the race become the past
01:14I stepped away from the wheel at the end I have a life and it's so to defend
01:20I finally have found the golden key To finally be who I meant to be
01:29The morning coffee tastes so sweet No rushin' out to join the street
01:33I cup the eggs and take my time Without a mountain left to find a tick
01:36And cock has lost its grip No more a slave on every trip
01:39The afternoons are soft and slow We know we left that I must go
01:43I didn't know how tired I felt Until the ice began to melt
01:46All the fever lived inside my chest I never knew the gift to rest
01:50My nervous system find this peace I finally found a sweet release
01:53The nature heals my weary heart A brand new life is where I start
01:56No more reviews to face I've left a frantic chase
02:00I felt my quiet space With dignity and grace
02:08A simple life is all I need I've planted now I'd better see
02:13The things I own are quiet enough I'm done with chasin' empty stuff
02:20No more a monkey on a string I'm listenin' to the birds that sing
02:27I found a person I should be Because I'm finally truly free
02:34I stepped away from the wheel at the end I have a life and a soul to defend
02:40I finally have found a golden key To finally be who I meant to be
02:47My life is mine and mine alone A peace I've never really known
02:54The rat race ends, the silence grows And that is how the story goes
03:01It's right on time, this quiet life I'm sleepin' through the gentle night
03:12Thank you
03:13But it's your pleasure
03:36I'm Peyton
