Wanna Get Ahead

Wanna get ahead from the things that you said
 And the skin you wanna shed but you can't at all
 I feel that you wanna get a grip on your life
 But the way you go about it puts me through the wall
 It's not like I feel anything at all
 It's not like you are ever gonna call
 Peel me off the seat
 Smoked out endlessly
 I can hardly be the person who I wanna be
 All this short stress and the way it makes a mess
 When you wanna be your best but you can't at all
 Living on your own man, finally you're grown man
 Lie to me again and I'll never call
 All these plans now, why you've gotta stall?
 All this pride man, when you're gonna fall?
 Peel me off the seat
 Smoked out endlessly
 I can hardly be the person who I wanna be
 Peel me off the seat
 Smoked out endlessly
 I can hardly be the person who I wanna be
 ♪
 What's the point if all the things I say
 Won't help us stay the way I want it to?
 Every band that I hate
 Each time that I don't relate
 Every choice that I make
 Won't be the same when you're gone
