The Middle
Mree - The Middle - EP Lyrics

Stay hydrated from from a double shot
I rely on substances to keep me going

Get my nourishment from a punch in the gut
I find motivation in pain and hardship

Never really felt I had the best of luck
I have always believed that luck is not on my side

I gotta big big mouth that just won't shut up
I tend to speak my mind without filter or restraint

Hop in the car and turn the radio on
I try to distract myself from reality by listening to music

Out from the speakers a familiar song
The song playing resonates with me because it feels familiar

Head down the road decide to hum along
I start singing along to the song and forget about my troubles

Made it all the way home and left the TV on
I got lost in my thoughts and forgot to turn off the TV

But I'm gonna learn to fly an airplane
I have a strong desire to accomplish something significant

And its gonna make my Mama proud
I want to make my mother proud of my achievements

I'm going to get my Dad to notice me
I seek validation and attention from my father

Even if I have to fly it into the ground
I am willing to go to extreme lengths to gain recognition

I know my days are numbered but I'm bad at math
I am aware of my mortality, but struggle with accepting it

I got a dick so hard that a cat could scratch
I exhibit excessive masculinity and aggression

Made some bad decisions I shouldn't go back
I have made mistakes in the past that I should not repeat

I cant see her, its just a not like that
I have lost touch with someone I used to love

You see I had this lovin' baby but I roughed her up
I had a loving partner, but I treated her poorly

A little ounce of pain behind every grunt
There is a hidden pain behind my tough exterior

All the noise that I make, I shouldn't complain
I realize that I bring upon myself the consequences of my actions

Regrets, tourettes, I guess it's the same
I am haunted by regrets and impulsive behavior

Ain't no money comin in 'cause I got child support
I struggle financially due to my obligation to pay child support

Ain't a fat old woman gonna leave me alone ?
I feel burdened by the presence of a nagging woman

Its a terrible way to live but it ain't my choice
I acknowledge the negative aspects of my life but feel helpless to change it

I signed away all of my earnings on the living room floor
I have made impulsive decisions that have negatively affected my financial stability

Well I could be the hero on the evenin' news
I fantasize about being recognized as a heroic figure

Smilin' in the face of danger like there's nothing to lose
I display a fearless and confident demeanor in challenging situations

Takin' out terrorists for himself, that's me ?
I imagine myself actively fighting against threats to society

Tell the kids to stay in schools and always get good grades
I believe in the importance of education and success for children

I'm gonna make my country proud
I aspire to achieve something that will bring glory to my nation

I'm gonna send this song Nashville
I hope to gain recognition and success in the music industry

Sell my soul to a whole new crowd
I am willing to compromise my values to gain popularity and acceptance
