Wax - Straight to Paradise Lyrics
Walking around with my eyes sewn shutPassing by the most beautiful things in the world like so whatFind an empty spot on a curb, and post upNext to a homeless man, cart full of soda cansSmiling, how's he in a better mood than I am inWhen I'm an inch away from achieving my dreamsThere's different types of achievement it seemsThe intravenous needle fiends to the people that dream of seeingThemselves up on the screensWe all tryna chase a highWhat is it with human being, we're never satisfiedMy only conclusion's confusionAnd my only solution is the illusion I create through boozin***** it, my eyes open, I pop my tall beerToast to Los Angeles, we all hereFrom Skid Row to the names up in the blaring lightsI take a sip and I'm headed straight to paradiseEvery day I battle with my inner consciousnessTrying to get him to become an optimistTrying to convince him god existsAnd to focus on the positive and take pride in my accomplishmentsBut he only speaks he doesn't hearA radio newsfeed always in my earAnd I, just wish it would disappearAn embodiment of all my insecurities and fearAnd it keeps me wide awake lying late at night nervousMind racing, contemplating life's purposeBut isn't that a contemplation that is quite worthlessAnd I'm still awake when the sunlight surfaceI justRelax, lie stillCount sheep, drink more nyquilLord help me sleep I say a prayer at nightAnd in my dreams I'm going straight to paradiseToo much time alone all I think about is deathI'm a chain smoker how much time I got leftI swear there's something wrong going on inside my chestI ain't seen a doctor nI should probably get a testI just wish I wasn confident in an afterlifeIf it turned out that I was wrong I'd be dead it wouldn't matter rightI drink too much, for the numbnessI think to much, but yearn for dumbnessI wish that I was satisfiedBy the cars, the restaurants and the Maitre D'sI love steak, put me back inside the matrix pleaseWe can all talk about the weather forecast or the sportscastOr the *****ing jersey shore castGet money, keep makin***** *****es, eat baconLord forgive me, I say a prayer at nightAnd when I die I'm going straight to paradise
