I’m running in place
I’m stuck on rewind
Slowly fading and fading
Chained to the grind

Running like crazy
But going nowhere
I’m feel like a circle
That’s stuck in a square

Day in, day out
I smile, and I shrug
This life that I live
It’s worse than a drug

Something is missing
I feel empty inside
I’m lost on my journey
Without a guide

I finally say “fuck it!”
I have to be free!
This fake little life
It’s just not for me

I get up and go!
I’ve had enough
It’s time to dust off
This diamond that’s rough

So I leave my job
Leave my life behind
I’m off to god knows where
Who knows what I’ll find

Yeah, sometimes it’s scary
But mostly not
I jumped into the empty
I gave it all that I got

Me versus the world
I’ll search and explore
I’m quenching my thirst
I’m thirsty for more

Just me and myself
With my little Wren
I’m not scared to do it
Again and again

I’ll search and search
I’m not going back
To that old “life” I lived
Where I was stuck in a track

Cause life is life
It was made to be fun
Now I’m living my life
With a beach and a sun

So here I am
I write, and I write
So I remember each day
From morning to night

My journal she’ll tell
My stories complete
She details my journey
From street to street

As I look back
I have no regrets
I watch every day
The sun as it sets

I think, and I smile
This smile is real
I’m finally happy
I finally feel

I’m finally free
I broke out of the rut
If you have something to say
Jamitupyerbutt!
