Start The Car
Cole Jude Lyrics

Well I'm tired of the pressure
I am exhausted from the stress and expectations placed on me.

So tired of the pace
I am completely worn out by the fast and hectic nature of my life.

Just wanna grab you baby
I desire to hold onto you and escape from this place with you.

And get out of this place
I want to leave this environment behind and start fresh somewhere else with you.

I got no chance of making it
I do not have any hope of succeeding in this current situation.

Working downtown
My current occupation is based in the city centre.

Just walking slow and talking low
I am moving at a leisurely pace and speaking in a quiet tone in order to avoid drawing attention to myself.

And tired of going down, down, down
I am exhausted from continuously experiencing failure and a downward spiral in my life.

Start the car, we gotta move
We need to take action and leave this place behind in order to move forward.

This ain't no living, this ain't no groove
This lifestyle is not fulfilling or enjoyable for me, it is merely existing and lacking in rhythm.

It's been a long hard road
My journey has been difficult and arduous.

Come on baby (ooh baby)
Encouragement and reassurance for the person he's with.

Let's drive it home
Let's finish this journey and arrive at our destination.

We started out for paradise
Our initial ambition was to reach a state of happiness and prosperity.

But this ain't no promised land
However, we have found that the reality of our situation is not what we had hoped and dreamed it would be.

This ain't no kind of living for an honest working man
Living in our current situation is not sustainable or suitable for an individual who desires to work hard and earn a living honestly.

Well there's people dying on the streets
There is a significant issue of homelessness and suffering in this city.

Sure don't make the news, ooh yeah
Despite the severity of these issues, they are often overlooked or ignored by the media.

While others living up on the hill
Meanwhile, there are individuals living in luxury and privilege in higher-end areas of the city.

Singing the white boy blues
These individuals are content with their privileged lives, but are still expressing a sense of dissatisfaction and melancholy.

The city's rich, or dirt poor
There is a great divide between the wealthy and impoverished in this city.

But somewhere waiting (ooh yeah)
Despite our current struggles, there is still hope for something better and more fulfilling in the future.

There's something more
I am confident that there is a better life and opportunity waiting for me elsewhere.

Well we're going out with dignity
We are leaving this place with a sense of self-respect and pride.

We're going out with style
We are leaving this place with a sense of flair and confidence.

Gonna lay down that hammer baby
We are going to take action and make our mark.

Make our own road across the miles
We are forging our own path and creating our own destiny.

Cause I can't take this town one more day
I am completely fed up and cannot bear to stay in this city any longer.

Mabeline, why can't you be true
An unexplained, and seemingly unrelated, line in the lyrics.
