We All Got Lost - Spose

Look, I think they set us up to let us down

Cause I don’t quite know what to do, where to go, who I am, where I am right now

Thought I would be on top, with a pool and a yacht by 29

23, she’s pregnant, I’m unemployed, we gon' be fine

Or so I hope, will I choke, will I stay afloat

Record label, no, let me go, got me losing hope

I left college with no degree, oh woe is me

This debt addressed to boulevard of broken dreams

When I’m 30 I’ll be sold out at the stadium

House big as palladium, you can let Tom Brady in

These naked girls Canadian, this private jet my favorite

To wave at aliens, that’s what I thought when I was 20

I had plenty bumps and bruises

Wrong turns, wins and loses

Reality was gruesome when it grew from the illusion

Feel like I was headed somewhere don’t remember where it was

Somebody yelled, «Join the club!»

We all got lost

We all got lost

We all got lost (I don’t know where to go)

We all got

I fell off the written map

I went both directions at the fork and I got split in half

I made the mistake of tryna have my cake and eat it (eat it)

Keep it and delete it

Party all the time and somehow still succeed at my achievements

This for every bartender with a bachelor degree

If you have to craft amendments on the map to the peak

For every former emcee who used to rap to the beat

And had to sell his microphone cause life isn’t cheap

For every girl who became a mom, whoops, on accident

Wasn’t even tryna have a kid, you were just practicing

For every musician that should have made it, never did

And traded in their dreams but got this job with benefits

And went to school and got the job, but never got happy

What the fuck is going on?

We followed the instructions and arrived at the mirage

Thought everything went wrong

Then I turned on my flashlight in the fog

We all got lost

The summer turned frost

Somewhere on our way to the top

We all got lost

And we might never get back

Searchin' for things we already have

We all got lost (now I don’t know where to go)

We all got lost

Can you show me the way?

Show me the way

I thought I would be rich by now

I thought I would have it figured out

I thought I would be rich by now

I thought I would have it figured out

He was gonna go pro, scholarship full of dough

He could not fail

But he got caught with the dro, in Alabama with a o

And he got expelled

So now he’s in his hometown, ow, back on unemployment

Saw his high school coach, oh, felt like disapointment

He got lost, rolled backwoods and he light it up

He thought he’d be playing D2 like the Mighty Ducks

She’s an actress, sleeping on a mattress

Moved out to Hollywood, mom it’s gonna happen

She went to audition, rejection, audition, depression and ibuprofen

Questioning everything, sobbing watching the Oscars

Man, I know by now she figured she would make it

10 years later she’s a damn good waitress

So I tipped her good, said it’s lonely at the top

She said she was lonely I said, «No you’re not»

We all got lost

The summer turned frost

Somewhere on our way to the top

We all got lost

And we might never get back

Searchin' for things we already have

We all got lost

Now I don’t know where to go

We all got lost

Can you show me the way?

Show me the way

We all got lost

We all got lost

The summer turned frost

Somewhere on our way to the top

(I thought I would be rich by now)

We all got lost

And we might never get back

Searchin' for things we already have

(I thought I would have it figured out)

We all got lost

Now I don’t know where to go

(I thought I would be rich by now)

We all got lost

Can you show me the way?

Show me the way

(I thought I would have it figured out)

We all got lost
