Rolling Strong

3AM on a Monday, rolling strong
The world gets crazy hazy when you've been on it too long
Rolling in this big ass van
Trying to get some more beats blasting
'Cause all we want is a Friday night
That will treat us right
And if we don't feel like we've got it right
There's always next weekend
There's no giving up, no going home
We'll be here till the end, we're pressing on
Probably should've asked a friend
But that's no how we're living
We're still rolling strong
At least we're living
We're still rolling on
4AM on a Thursday, I need sleep
Been pulling these all nighters all damn week
Rolling in this big ass van
Trying to get some more beats blasting
'Cause all we want is a Friday night
That will treat us right
And if we don't feel like we've got it right
There's always next weekend
All we need is a place to crash
In a big ass bed with a little cash
And the vibe's just right
It makes me happy
I'm so happy

All Of It
02:13

I'm gonna save my time and spend it all on you
I'm gonna take this life and make it here with you
And if you find yourself in the middle of a bad storm
Just know that I'll be there to keep your bed warm
How much of your love? How much of your love?
All of it
How much of your love do you think I need?
All of it
Uh-oh-oh
Uh-oh-oh
Uh-oh-oh
When you feel your blood temp rise hot under your skin
The salty sting in your eyes, you always take it on the chin
Well I got news for you, that's all gonna change
You've paid your dues, it's time to turn the page
How much of your love? How much of your love?
All of it
How much of your love do you think I need?
All of it
How much of your love? How much of your love?
All of it
How much of your love do you think I need?
All of it
If our house of cards
Falls down and we never make it out alive
If our trains collide
Or run off the tracks know that I'm fighting to get back
How much of your love? How much of your love?
All of it
I'm gonna save my time, spend it all on you
How much of your love do you think I need?
All of it
I'm gonna take this life and make it here with you
I'm gonna take this life and make it here with you

Friday Tonight
03:27
|
|||
|
How did we make it this far?
How did we learn to stay alive?
How did my head not separate my body from my mind?
How did the planets get aligned?
How is it every single time?
I'm in the kitchen, you're in the kitchen
In the god damn refrigerator
I've always loved that line
I say it every time
Like tonight
It's Friday tonight, tonight, tonight
It is really fine
It's Friday tonight, tonight, tonight
It's Friday tonight
Friday tonight
Friday tonight, tonight, tonight
Friday tonight, tonight, tonight
It's Friday tonight
How old would you be if you forgot your birthday?
How would you change your life if you could never die?
Would you do good or do crime?
How is it every single time?
I'm in the kitchen, you're in the kitchen
In the god damn refrigerator
I've always loved that line
I say it every time
Like tonight
It's Friday tonight, tonight, tonight
It is really fine
It's Friday tonight, tonight, tonight
It's Friday tonight
How crazy would you be?
How crazy would you go?
If you had everything
You lost it in the throw
You win some, you lose some
But you live, you live to fight another day
I've always loved that line
I say it every time
Like tonight
It's Friday tonight, tonight, tonight
It is really fine
It's Friday tonight, tonight, tonight
It's Friday tonight
Friday tonight
Friday tonight, tonight, tonight
Friday tonight, tonight, tonight
It's Friday tonight
Friday tonight
Friday tonight, tonight, tonight
Friday tonight, tonight, tonight
It's Friday tonight

Let's Ride
03:24
|
|||
|
(1, 2, 3, 4)
About the time that I turned 14
I got a job doing landscaping
Those days were long and my old boss was mean
About the time that I turned 16
Got a car and no place to be
I'd fill up the tank and drive out to the sea
The Rockies ain't too far from here if we drive all night
The cold air will do you well in the mountain morning light
Let's ride let's ride on through the rain
Come on and take me anywhere that you wanna be
Let's ride
By the time that I turned 19
I'd seen so much yet I was still green
It's taken me a time or two to learn the things I watched you do for me
There I was at 29, I can't believe I'm still alive
Though it was never easy, you and me we were born to survive
The Rockies ain't too far from here if we drive all night
The cold air will do you well in the mountain morning light
So let's ride, that was my escape
A way to change the tape
That was playing, that was playing in my head
The Rockies ain't too far from here if we drive all night
The cold air will do you well in the mountain morning light
Let's ride let's ride on through the rain
Come on and take me anywhere that you wanna be
Let's ride, let's ride let's follow the skyline
And when we make it to the other side
We'll find all the bluest skies

Uptown Streets
03:10
|
|||
|
On a Saturday night, in the year of the Summer of Sam
I was truly scared, for the first nine years I ran
It was a mighty fine day in the USA I bet
Yeah I wrote it on the back of my hand so I wouldn't forget
Those uptown streets
We all drive down
They may be worn out, be broken, and yet somehow
They carried so many
Of us to safety
Those uptown streets
We walk those now
Gotta keep your eyes wide open all the time
Gotta keep your focus on the bigger prize
I was buying one cent candies at the corner store
Riding BMX like a paper delivery boy
Those uptown streets
We all drive down
They may be worn out, be broken, and yet somehow
They carried so many
Of us to safety
Those uptown streets
We walk those now
Yeah
We still walk those streets
We still walk those streets
Those uptown streets
We all drive down
They may be worn out, be broken, and yet somehow
They carried so many
Of us to safety
Those uptown streets
We walk those now

20-20 Hindsight
02:23
|
|||
|
I'm panicking baby, don't let them take me
Don't let them take me from everything I know
That move would kill me, or what's left of me
It feels like I've been cut off from my home
Where will I go if I end up all alone?
How will I know when the time has come to go?
It's now or never so let's go
Now or never so let's go
So here's my pep talk, you got this on lock
So get up there and show us how hard you can fight
If I'm being truthful I'm not that useful
Except I got that 20-20 hindsight
Where will I go if I end up all alone?
How will I know when the time has come to go?
It's now or never so let's go
It's now or never so let's go
Where will I go if I end up all alone?
How will I know when the time has come to go?
It's now or never so let's go
Now or never so let's go
Now or never so let's go

The Way We Do
02:43
|

|
I break my neck to give my family all they need
If giving blood was asked of me, then blood I'll bleed
If the earth opens up and somehow swallows me
Let me live on through the songs and stories
Like that time
When face to face destroyed our band
Our freezing balls, crossed Canada with Simple Plan
Or stealing third, from Bad Religions dressing room
Some night that old bus felt like a tomb
This is the way we do
Like the way we always wanted to
It's true, it's true
This is the way we do
This is the way we make this moment last past midnight like teenagers out past curfew
Yeah
I've failed so many times it don't bother me
Life will send us lessons like they grow on trees
There's no shortcuts in this life, so far that I've seen
But here are here we are where while I'm living the dream
Here we are where while I'm living the dream
Like that time we toured across America
And found we loved every corner of
This great green world and yet it's lonely on some nights
Crack the door and leave on the lights
This is the way we do
Like the way we always wanted to
It's true, it's true
This is the way we do
This is the way we make this moment last past midnight like teenagers out past curfew
Yeah

Life Goals
02:22
|
|||
|
Broken friendships commited rivals
Don't believe in those hyped-up idols
Those messed up thoughts are not your own
Someone shared with you, and some are going alone
Why look mama now that your boy is grown
You swear your thoughts are not your own
One day you're walking around
The next day you're nowhere to be found
Now you're buried six feet under ground
Tribute the past, live a life of no regret
Repair the mast, the sail is true and holds us fast
And it's good to have life goals
And it's good to have life goals
Failed to notice way off course
Made the freight run despite the bad discourse
All the way to hell, like a tour de force
One day you're walking around
The next day you're nowhere to be found
Failed to keep it undercover
One day you're walking around
The next day you're nowhere to be found
Now you're buried six feet under ground
A bridge to nowhere
Still takes you somewhere
But you never know
Until you get there
Raise up the bar, looking back with no regret
Death knows how close, that's a life that most don't get
But it's good to have life goals
It's good to have life goals

Pipe Dreams
02:40
|
|||
|
Building a skyline, and wondering where my surprise went
The blueprints keep changing, the code keeps on breaking
That must be the intent
Pick all my pockets and take what you need, all you'll find
Just leave me a shred of humanity, leave me my mind
Hold on
Hold on to those pipe dreams
If I'm wrong
The worst is already happening
Hold on, hold on
No reason we can't have pipe dreams
Faced with a nation divided and engaged in reality star wars
Still no indication that we didn't crawl out like rats from the sewers
Pick all my pockets and take what you need, all you'll find
Just leave me a shred of humanity, leave me my mind
Hold on
Hold on to those pipe dreams
If I'm wrong
The worst is already happening
Hold on, hold on
No reason we can't have pipe dreams
Infrastructure and pipeline
Nearly broken supply lines
All my vision is too clear
All this hate it must be fear
Oh yeah
Must be fear
Hold on
Hold on to those pipe dreams
If I'm wrong
The worst is already happening
Hold on
Hold on to those pipe dreams
If I'm wrong
The worst is already happening
Hold on, hold on
No reason we can't have pipe dreams

Disaster
02:20
|
|||
|
Sittin' in my car drinking from a flask
Layin' future plans, worked up the nerve to ask
Nothin' can prepare you for the way we all feel
When you're so in love it just doesn't seem real
I'm such a disaster for you
No one else could run faster for you
I'm such a disaster for you
I can't stand up straight
I'm fallin' over, over and over
Stuck in the middle of a hurricane
Comin' at you fast, the days have gone insane
When I need peace I find it back at home
You are my anchor no matter where this vessel goes
I'm such a disaster for you
No one else could run faster for you
I'm such a disaster for you
I can't stand up straight
I'm fallin' over
I had the best time with you
Running 'round the house, all laughin'
Wishin' this moment was forever lasting
And then I find myself callin' you
I find myself callin' you
I find myself callin' you
Yeah you
I find myself callin' you
I'm such a disaster for you
No one else could run faster for you
I'm such a disaster for you
I can't stand up straight
I'm fallin' over, over and over
I can't stand up straight
I'm fallin' over, over and over
I can't stand up straight
I'm fallin' over, over and over

Moments Like This
03:02
|
|||
|
These are what times, where so many blue skies turn gray
At the end of each night we get ready for work the next day
Don't you ever lose heart, keep the fire burning ablaze
And don't call me crazy, it's just the way I was raised
These moments like this, that I'm gonna miss
When I'm dead and gone and I can't kiss my kids
Will they look up to the sky and think about me
These are the ways I've been spendin' my days
Thinkin' weird thoughts and the things that amaze
Beyond my life and the way I've been able to leave it so free
These moments like this
That are priceless to me
Yea-yeah, yea-yeah, yea-yeah
Priceless to me
Yea-yeah, yea-yeah
I heard the screen door as it slammed all the hours of the day
It's so hot outside, I don't move, I'm just meltin' in place
Possessions are lost and gone without so much as a trace
The time keeps on tickin' each second replaced
I can't imagine it now
Didn't want to think of it then
Thought I'd be assisted somehow
But I was wrong again
We all hide from truth
The truth is we'll see
We are all beautiful, yet deadly afraid
These moments like this, that I'm gonna miss
When I'm dead and gone and I can't kiss my kids
Will they look up to the sky and think about me
These are the ways I've been spendin' my days
Thinkin' weird thoughts and the things that amaze
Beyond my life and the way I've been able to live it so free
These moments like this
That are priceless to me
Yea-yeah, yea-yeah, yea-yeah
Priceless to me
Yea-yeah, yea-yeah
Priceless to me
Yea-yeah, yea-yeah, yea-yeah
Priceless to me
Yea-yeah, yea-yeah
