lyrics

I searched up high, I searched down low
Looking for beauty in ordinary things
Keep myself high, kept my hopes low
but I can't find joy in quintessential life
Without a dime to my name
I feel the same as someone better off

Pursuit of happiness, I'm halfway down the line
Nevermind consequence, my futures undefined
Manifest all the dreams that live inside my mind
Envision everything I hope to someday find
I'm on my way, I was never meant to stay

These four walls I've built myself
Can be blown to bits right in a single breath
And in this dirt, I've planted myself
In a pot that's too small for my roots to grow
