Doing time in my mind for another petty crime It's a sign Don't think I'll ever fall in line to the system I'll just diss 'em I'm on a mission trying to get a bit of recognition
Lack of nutrition, I feel half dead Got a lot of ambition but I never go to bed And I'm bored of comparisons Jumping the gun People need to learn to have just a bit of fun
Fuck all that said I wouldn't make it at school Going 'round saying Rat Boy's a fool And I've never been cool, never played by the rules And I spend my time hanging out in the halls Contemplation, in a messy situation In a knackered nation with no imagination Feeling on my own, never been a clone Not much to do and all my mates are stoned (Yeah)
They caught up in my mind Oh but I'm over it, into it then go with it They caught up in my mind Oh but it's over They caught up in my mind Oh but I'm over it, into it then go with it They caught up in my mind Oh but it's over
They say looking is a curse But curiosity and not knowing makes it worse Reverse my mind blind Went up every day to the centre And I look at myself and know I'm just a beginner Do you ever feel like your mind's playing tricks on you? In a situation you don't know what you're gonna do Keep stringing on and I know it's in my head It's been fed once but the opposite is just dread (And you see them coming for us now)
They caught up in my mind Oh but I'm over it, into it then go with it They caught up in my mind Oh but it's over
(Cover down, cover down, cover down, cover down)
And all the people wait in line To see the next, to the side The love, the life, the pain, and the shame Our lives are owned by fame in this game
We're gonna go one last time around I wanna see your hands in the motherfucking air
They caught up in my mind Oh but I'm over it, into it then go with it They caught up in my mind Oh but it's over They caught up in my mind Oh but I'm over it, into it then go with it They caught up in my mind Oh but it's over
