Destination

[verse I]

Don’t ever see myself arriving, not while I’m breathing

Every step I take gets me closer to being

Why is it so hard to pat myself on the back

When I put in the work to get to where I am?

[PRE-CHORUS]

Why it gotta be what’s “wrong”?

Why can’t it ever go right?

Maybe if I turn it around then I’ll have a different eye

[CHORUS]

I need all the gas that I can get

There’s a long road up ahead

The journey ain’t shit

But the destination is lit

[verse ii]

When you really get a gander at

Just how long you’ve been traveling

You don’t realize the ways that you came

I don’t believe I’m blessed

Though my mother begs to differ

I think life was gentle when it dealt my hand

[PRE-CHORUS]

I can’t forget to give myself grace

When I’m fighting, you think I’m all great

Sometimes words don’t have the time to play today

[CHORUS: 2X]

I need all the gas that I can get

There’s a long road up ahead

The journey ain’t shit

But the destination is lit

[BRIDGE: 2x]

Gotta take it moment by moment

Cause a lot can happen in a day

No use in beating myself up

The world is gonna do it anyway

Of course, I’m a “slow burn”.

I’m the sun, not a match.

[CHORUS: 2x]

I need all the gas that I can get

There’s a long road up ahead

The journey ain’t shit

But the destination is lit

Whew, I made it… now how I’m gon’ get back?
