Miami
Parrotfish Lyrics

Driving through Miami but it couldn't be me
I may be physically in Miami, but mentally I am elsewhere because I am feeling unfulfilled and stuck

Cause I'm looking in the rear view and there's nothing to see
I am searching for inspiration and motivation to move forward, but all I see is a lack of progress and opportunities

Oh please, give me a break
I am tired and frustrated with the difficulties and obstacles I am facing, and I need a moment of relief and rest

Obligations weighing hard on my chest
I feel burdened by responsibilities and commitments that are causing me stress and anxiety

If I don't burn out, I'll probably head to the west
If I don't collapse under the pressure and exhaustion, I might venture off to chase my dreams in a different location

The dishes in the sink and we're unemployed
I am dealing with financial problems and unemployment, causing everyday tasks and chores to feel overwhelming

But at least we got problems to avoid
Although things may be tough, at least we have the ability to distract ourselves from our problems

I try to please everybody, it's really bleeding me dry
I am exhausted from constantly trying to meet everyone's expectations and needs, leaving me drained and empty

How we supposed to cut the silence with these muffled cries?
It is difficult for me to express my true feelings and desires, and I am struggling to find my voice in a world that often ignores or stifles it

Oh please, why don't you give me a break?
I am reaching out for help and support, hoping for a break from the challenges and difficulties of life

I had some slight reservations
At first, I had some doubts and hesitations about the choices I made

But impatience took the wheel
However, my impulsive nature got the best of me, leading me to make hasty decisions without thinking them through

Cause I was plastered, oh
I was under the influence of alcohol or drugs, impairing my judgment and decision-making abilities

Yeah I was plastered, oh
I was heavily intoxicated, clouding my perception and reasoning

And yeah, I'm lasting the duration
Despite the consequences of my actions, I am continuing to endure and persevere through my struggles

Focus in up on her face
I am honing in on one particular person or thing, giving it my full attention and energy

So I'm now faster, oh
This focus is giving me a sense of speed and momentum, propelling me forward

I'm slowly getting used to this role I'm in
I am starting to adapt to my current situation and the challenges it presents

Since the rough helpless actor's being forced to grin
Even though I may feel helpless and disadvantaged, I am still expected to put on a happy face and keep going

Penalizing information, that all seems pointless
I am struggling to find meaning and purpose in the information and knowledge that I am gaining

Babe there's no going back once the day begins
Once I start my day, there is no turning back or changing the trajectory of my life
