No One Else - Cale The Lyricist
(Verse one) Drivin' full speed, headin' towards a cliff/ My foot's on the gas, I'm accelerating quick/ All that I see, through this grungy windshield/ Is barron wasteland, and deserted fields/ I'm a turn the music up, just to keep me company/ Helps to focus on what's comin' up in front of me/ I can't stop sweatin', it's hot in this savanna/ Rockin' the Canadian flag, as a bandanna/ Wonder if anyone will ever find me / First, they'll have to get through the cloud a dirt behind me/ Leavin' a trail, in a land with no laws/ Where everyone's a rebel, on the hunt for a cause/ My seatbelt's undone, my door's unlocked/ Time to jump out the driver's seat, and watch this car drop/ Off the mountaintop til' it falls on rocks/ And eventually explodes, so I'm forced to walk/ CHORUS X 2 There's No One Else, I'd rather be but myself/ Nobody Else, I'd rather be but myself/ Yo There's No One Else, I'd rather be but myself/ Cause I can't imagine wanting to be somebody else/ (Verse two) Where did the time go, we must of lost track/ As sand trickled fast, down a shrink's hour glass/ I may be off the wall, but I'm on the ball/ Sensin' that right moment, to perform a song for y'all/ So come gather round', catch a glimpse of the magic/ Even if this microphone's invisible, I'll still grab it/ Can you see it, c'mon here take a look/ It's so hot, I could put frozen food on it, to cook/ I know when your shocked, can't believe your eyes/ When I see them lines a hair, above your eyelids rise/ So please don't try to startle, or surprise me/ That's why I sleep, with a baseball bat beside me/ Call me cautious, call me paranoid/ Fillin' in a space, wherever there's a void/ There's a whole lot a holes though that need to be stitched/ Wish I knew how to sew, cause yo they have to be fixed/ CHORUS X 2 There's No One Else, I'd rather be but myself/ Nobody Else, I'd rather be but myself/ Yo there's No One Else, I'd rather be but myself/ Cause I can't imagine, wanting to be somebody else (Verse three) I wanna learn to cook nice, interpret books right/ Wish I was a star, so I could see what space looks like/ I know I'm not invincible, I don't got immunity/ I stopped throwin' rocks threw windows of opportunity/ Quit bitin' my tongue, and swallowin' pride/ From eatin' my own words, and feelin' hollow inside/ Now I have a healthy appetite, always full a life/ And a fire burning in it, that y'all can help ignite/ A chance to communicate's, what I've always wanted/ All I need is a stage, where these skills can be flaunted/ Forget about the hype, attention n' limelight/ I know it won't be what I'm after, lookin' back in hindsight/ So I'm a say this now, and I'm a say it loud/ Raise a fist in the air, everybody stay proud/ Proud of who we are, proud of where we come from/ Proud of what we gonna do, n' proud of what we've done/ CHORUS X 4 There's No One Else, we'd rather be but ourselves/ Nobody Else, we'd
