lyrics

Uh, 18 I just got my license
reckless teenager.. high as shit
after midnight driving to my girls crib
we on E she got her hand on my…
Dropped before we left the party shouldn't of… fuck it
I just finished high school i'm bullet proof, love it!
feel i'm in a movie with a million dollar budget
cant decide if anything matters well does it
Hasn't been long since the death of my cousin
poor dude didn't even make the double dozen
never will I forget the look of his mother
my foot taps the brakes thinking of my mother
I love her, but never less always stress her out
doing dumb shit with my friends we mess about
in the streets speeding home blurred backgrounds
I don't know how I survived looking back now…

Feeling (Switching Lanes, Switching Lanes)
Nothing is the same again (How things change, How they change)
Moving so fast (Switching Lanes, Switching Lanes)
Hard to keep up, I just keep on Switching Lanes (How things change, How they change)

21 I'm in the big smoke drivin'
through the city on my way home from my shift
at an RSL pouring all types of drinks
for old folks who give the pokes their retirements
And somehow their sadness infects me
till i like to stay home when i drink
like its cool to sit alone and smoke and think
stay up late till the early sky is pink..
Thinking too much at the traffic lights again
I swear I bleed ,every time they're red
I walk through the malls, know no-one
Can't find a park, a heart or home that
I feel at home at, maybe I'll forever be a nomad
in the streets speeding past all these blurred backgrounds
I don't know how I survived as I'm looking back now..

Feeling (Switching Lanes, Switching Lanes)
Nothing is the same again (How things change, How they change)
Moving so fast (Switching Lanes, Switching Lanes)
Hard to keep up, I just keep on Switching Lanes (How things change, How they change)

Switching Lanes, Switching Lanes (Switching Lanes)
How things change, How they change (How things change)

Switching Lanes, Switching Lanes (Switching Lanes)
How things change, How they change (Oh, How things change)

Now I'm 28 and Im living in The Bay
At nights deliver pizza speed switch lanes
overtake lames, in these streets i got a name
for being cool, being smooth, slanging that slang
Cats used to doubt me, now they wanna hang
but Im too busy cold doing my thing
I wouldn't be the me that I am today though
if i got stuck, drove slow and never changed lanes yo

Feeling (Switching Lanes, Switching Lanes)
Nothing is the same again (How things change, How they change)
Moving so fast (Switching Lanes, Switching Lanes)
Hard to keep up, I just keep on Switching Lanes (How things change, How they change)
