Looped state of mind

Warrup man
Hope everything is looking like you planned
Damn it's been a minute since we shook each others hands
I'll be back for Christmas just to hook up with the fam
I just found a couple tickets and I booked 'em in advance
Life is moving fast here but money kinda slow
I stretch it so allas but I'm running kinda low
And the pressure's in the past keep on knocking on my door
You telling me I gotta settle up the deviance I owe
When I know, life is like an never ending circle
In and out of good times spinning like a whirlpool
And the more you put in the more you get out
You never smelled the roses if you never stick your head out
And now I'm talking like you didn't already know
When it was you that told me 'bout it a couple years ago
This how it is my friend the ties come and go
And we just try to get it sucked up in the under toe

[Hook x2]
I push it forward but it creeps up from behind
I guess I'm in the looped state of mind
I keep it moving but it happens every time
I guess I'm in the looped state of mind

And even when it's hard I count my blessings
Dreams from adolescence and somehow got manifested
Woman of my dreams lay your head upon my chest
When situation sticky know she got my no question
Only answers, everything is give and take
Goes and it comes right back like the figure eight
I just give thanks for the meal on my dinner plate
And the love from the fam' I can feel how it emanates
And I ride it like red riding giants
No wave too high and no fear of dying
You only live it once live it while you can
Only fool build a castle on a plot full of sand
And a man keeps on trying even when the tryin' gets tyran
Feeding off the fire that's inside them
And if it's in the mind, it's in the making
It always comes around when it does it for the taking

[Hook x2]
I push it forward but it creeps up from behind
I guess I'm in the looped state of mind
I keep it moving but it happens every time
I guess I'm in the looped state of mind

[Bridge]
What ever happened to that dream world
That used to have us captivated
Where all the static and the real world
Felt like all evaporated
What ever happened to that bright star
That used to guide us through the phasing
Now everything's so hard but everything changes

[Hook x2]
I push it forward but it creeps up from behind
I guess I'm in the looped state of mind
I keep it moving but it happens every time
I guess I'm in the looped state of mind
