The Story Of My Life

It's been so long
Since I felt that
Since I wanted that
Only to realize that
I don't need that
That I never needed that
I only thought that
I needed something
To survive
But I'm still alive
God willing
I'm still alive
Pinching my pennies
Pinching myself to see if this is real
I know by what I've been thinking
I can tell by the way I feel
That I've run off my wheel
Just a rat in a cage
Despite my rage
Despite whatever page
I'm on
In the story of my life
