[Verse]
Tell me why I gotta do this
Tell me why I gotta play a game
That I'm always losing
Whole thing seems stupid
I don't even want the prize
While my soul gets bruises
I would take your advice
But I don't wanna end up with your life
A suburban nightmare, your a carbon copy
And a vacant zombie

[Bridge]
They tried to make me match the even background
They tried to manufacture me
They never could

[Hook]
I'm gonna stay in my own lane
I'm gonna stay in my own lane
And I don't care if you should choose
To do the same
Jealousy is a distraction
Brush it off with a passion
Cause you'll be in the same spot decades later
I'll be on a straight shot, trailblazing

[Verse]
Guess I'm gonna have to face it
I could never get along
With the crowd so basic
Won't stay complacent
Wanna write so many songs
Wanna see so many places
If I could, I'd do exactly what I'm told
Mute my colors, take the safe route
I'd just suffer, rip the cage down

[Bridge]
They tried to make me match the even background
They tried to manufacture me

[Hook]
I'm gonna stay in my own lane
I'm gonna stay in my own lane
And I don't care if you should choose
To do the same
Jealousy is a distraction
Brush it off with a passion
Cause you'll be in the same spot decades later
I'll be on a straight shot, trailblazing
