about

old chord progression from like 2018-2019 but with lyrics about my constant fear of what my life will become after i graduate

lyrics

how am i gonna pay my bills?
how am i gonna get a job?
how am i gonna live my best life
with no money to bounce off?

stealing coke money from the other homeless people
and i've broken all my bones, i can't move forward when i'm feeble
but maybe i'm just making excuses
so i don't leave

but what is out there
out there for me
when all i ever do is
express my creativity

i'm lacking of skills and what course should i choose
a mixed bag of career paths, i wanna stay with you
i have no good future from what i can see
so why don't you come and stay with me

i'm out here on my own
trying to afford to eat
making the musicians money
just tryna keep myself on my feet

one bedroom flat with a student loan
my bed's made of cardboard and i'm living alone
i have loud neighbors who keep me up
which is kind of ironic 'cause im making all the fuss

but what is out there
out there for me
when all i ever do is
express my creativity

i'm lacking of skills and what course should i choose
a mixed bag of career paths, i wanna stay with you
i have no good future from what i can see
so why don't you come and stay with me

why do i have to follow this stupid system?
probably because there is nothing special about me.
i’m just another person
looking for some sort of success in the music scene
every download, every play counts
seeing my views slow down after the link i sent gets overthrown by everyone else's music
what makes me so different.
there are many more talented people than me.

am i gonna die (x4)
i am gonna die (x2)
when will i die
well i'm dead
