I’ve got artists to promo, including my solo stuff /
When’s that coming out? /
I don’t know but /
My composure’s just /
Ok at a so-so push /
Now I’m so grown up /
I mosey on home but I don’t own up /
...How much the day got me feeling low so much /
...I’m the one that who wrote those hooks /
About taking negatives and getting ‘em to go turn plus /
So I hope that folks will go slow don’t rush /
It’s a miracle you’re here but your ozone’s f---- /
Postpone the progress or smoke donuts /
Choose action or apathy and don’t show up /
Not trying to hurry you on though, no rush /
We’re designed to capture moments like a photo does /
Cos this whole globe must /
Have a focus on blowing stuff up since we’re all going bust /
...But the sun’ll keep shining /
Behind the clouds, it might not be out but I keep reminding /
Myself that there’s nowt worse than dying /
I just gotta hold every moment closer and keep surviving //

Put on a beat, drift away, let my thoughts go /
Though often I'm torn, broke, all my force flows /
Prolly shown all my flaws caught in my scrawled notes /
Still pretty puzzled by the universe’s source code /
Lord knows what I've prayed for /
Usually respectful whilst saying look after my pares or /
The friends that I care for /
Dependent on them more than I'd dare to let 'em depend on /
Me, though I try to keep promises /
To-me honesty's the key principle you should honour, see /
When the world resting on my shoulders again /
That’s when I've faltered and friends can help to bolster my Zen /
(Still) I know I'm getting there / where? I'll know one day /
For now I'm content with a roast on a Sunday /
Here's a toast to my good mates, the things that I'm blessed with /
And to every word placed I feel stress lift //
Chorus x2
Although I’m not where I want to be /
I know one day that I’ll be free /
A place where I can clearly see /
That maybe we can make it //

I need to clear my head from all the bad vibes /
And push the level, raise the bar and let my flag fly /
Just for the fact I, know what I’ve got within /
Don’t want to waste it or loose cos I’ve got to win /
Yeah I’m competitive; it’s just the way I’m programmed /
You only have to go and ask anybody who knows Dan /
I turn my hand to anything, I gotta go HAM /
I guess I’ll be that way until the day that I'm an old man /
That’s when I get the chance to sit back and rest a bit /
Hopefully impressed knowing that I made the best of it /
I know I’m stressed thinking how I never benefit /
But then again I’m not supposed to know cos I aint read the script /
I guess the lesson is get a grip /
And just let it rip with a rhythm that’s better than the rest of them could ever spit /
Yet I’m a pessimist opposite of a Methodist /
Never the less the effort is excellent setting precedence /
I never expect it given; I know I gotta work /
I’m not a jerk just because I don’t follow a church /
Nor am I saved cos I guess you've gotta want it first /
Killing in his name, now you tell me who's got it worse //
