[Intro]
Yeah

[Verse 1]
6 a.m. in the morning
I wake up inside my room
I brush my teeth, throw on clothes
Say a prayer and then tie my shoes
Outside my door there’s a war
With the man in the fancy suit
But I need coffee
Before I decide what I’m ’bout to do

[Verse 2]
I get on the highway
And start going nowhere really fast
The destination in life
Is the journey we all drive past
I’m doing 150 an hour
And I’m praying that I crash
Into the dreams I had
That I left back in my past

[Chorus]
Every day I wake up
I GPS my thoughts and get lost inside my phone
Every day I wake up
I GPS my thoughts ’cause I don’t know wherе I’m going (Oh)

[Verse 3]
It’s 12 p.m. and it’s lunchtime
I’m hungry, so I go eat
The fast food is chеap
But it cost me the health that I’m trying to keep
Awake in this nightmare
I stay counting all these sheep
Lost on route in pursuit

Of this new American dream

[Chorus]
Every day I wake up
I GPS my thoughts and get lost inside my phone
Every day I wake up
I GPS my thoughts ’cause I don’t know where I’m going

[Verse 4]
It’s 8 p.m, I’m tired and finally back home
I spend my days trying to bank
On the fact that my life’s alone
Avoiding the news
Searching for truth beneath every unturned stone
Knowing life’s a game I play that I don’t own

[Chorus]
‘Cause every day I wake up
I GPS my thoughts and get lost inside my phone
‘Cause every day I wake up
I GPS my thoughts ’cause I don’t know where I’m going

[Outro]
Yeah
