Get your fuckin hands up
Get on out of your seats
All eyes on me
All eyes on me
And i know where we’re going
And I know where I’ve been
Tears paving the slippery slope to retribution
And no wonder I’ve been manic lately
I get to go home and figuring that out is the most challenging and exciting thing I could think of
I wanna live above
All the people that I left in the first place
Taking back my community
A place where I can find immunity from the headache of isolation, lack of independence
I am a real person there
We’re going to go where everybody knows
And a place where the growth can continue
I only took a year break but I’ll never quit again
So sorry I said goodbye
So mad I shied away from working on my shit
But trying to love the year I’ve had
I’ve gained the pounds and wet the carpets with salt water remnants
Smiling as I look back, when the ferry trails behind my own future
I’ll kiss the ground when I arrive
So this is how it ends, I promise to never go outside again
Or is it only the beginning of a love that confirms the grass is just fine on my home side
It may not be here all the months of the year but at least it doesn’t burn up in the summer
I’ve been a total bummer
But now I know what to look forward to
So this is how it ends, I promise to never go outside again
And home is just a hop, skip around the bend
Where I can get a little bit of everything, all of the time
Change my outfit and my mind at the drop of a dime
Because it’s my life and I’m taking it back
Going back to calgary, going back to black
Back to the palomino, back to the weeknd, back to walking down the road like everybody knows your name
And I’ll dress it up like someone really cares
Not that they care anymore than they did before but now I have the motivation to dress for the occasion
That I’m a goddamn celebrity and I’m returning to base
I said ‘bye forever calgs’ but now I plead my case, grasping at the ropes to but the burnt bridge back together
And could you really expect anything more from me? Constantly building in the ashes I’m backtracking
And avoiding the back lashing I may recieve
They don’t outweigh my disdane
So all eyes on me as I put my life back together
Hands down now, pray for me
