VERSE 1: Born in this stupid town so I do stupid things
my future is bright but it’s hard to see
I’ve been stuck in this place for longer than you know
I’m the Hennesy king. Do you got any smokes?
Guess I’ll go drink again on my way off to work
everybody’s got the same “f’‘n” job but for what it’s worth
gonna get the hell outa here before I turn into you
I’m gonna be somebody
CHORUS: I am so far away from here
Where I’m from aint exactly clear
You don’t like me but I don’t care
‘Cause I am so far away from here
VERSE 2: You say that I aint shit-aint never gonna be nothing
my daddy knock me around and my girl say she’s pregnant
with some other dude-well I got a ticket to ride
like a bat out of hell I made it to the other side
on the morning train nobody knew that I was gone
I’m never gonna come back again
not even to play my song
now my future is bright-now I see so clear
that there is nothing to fear
CHORUS:
Bridge: In time it will be alright
Since I took that ride-I’m on the other side
CHORUS: OUT
