It seems like my life decays
Wish dreams like life will fade
That I look back that one day
At my book stack grew to weigh
Read and write and play
Seed the tree and wait
Piece by piece I pray
Save it from decay
Aye

That one day I got a job
Act and say my God I flawed
Low class I flip burgers
My own life I ******
I better than that I say
I let her find another way
I went single on my own
I feel good but am I grown
Then the day I got a car
10 days later I'm a star
I feel rich I feel great
I pull fries and work and hate
Miserable, mad, I want out bad
I'm capable, but doubt, it's sad
I leave my shift so glad
I drive my ride proud but sad
I see my **** I have
I try my best but don't add
I stay put in place
Stuck and never win this race
Let me out I cry but stay aye

It seems like my life decays
Wish dreams like life will fade
That I look back that one day
At my book stack grew to weigh
Read and write and play
Seed the tree and wait
Piece by piece I pray
Save it from decay
Aye

Then the day I quit the day I change
Left that place and got a higher wage
Work with cars and work with class
Bust my *** and now I got it made
Did it for a class got a grade
I want it better I prayed
So God replied here is your way
I won't die I will strive I will climb
I will make it to the end just fine
Piece by piece
The odds will break
Life will decay
Decay will make
Something new
Build off it and I grew
Matter cannot be created nor destroyed
I will be amazing on Earth and then the void

It seems like my life decays
Wish dreams like life will fade
That I look back that one day
At my book stack grew to weigh
Read and write and play
Seed the tree and wait
Piece by piece I pray
Save it from decay
Aye
