It's been 20 years, and I'm still out here
In California trying to find out my way
Looks like I ain't made no progress
But y'all keep talking
You'll be singing along someday
Just mark my words
One day everybody will know my name
I know it seems unrealistic
But there's not much distance
Until I make my claim to fame
I hate this
(False confidence)
(Walls of defense)
But I do it so that I can make myself believe
And hide the fact that no one really cares about me
I hate this

Waiting tables ain't as fun as they say, no
But I'm just trying to keep my income stable
Rhyming everyday and as enticing as it used to be
Just give me a year and I'll be dining on some wine and cheese
I don't want to get a job and stay there 'till I'm 70
I don't want to get old and regretful of the life I lead
I don't want to die and then just fade into obscurity
All my life just isn't meant for me
I hate this
(False confidence)
(Walls of defense)
But I do it so that I can make myself believe
And hide the fact that no one really cares about me
I hate this

I hate this
Yeah
Okay
