Lyrics The Future - Auggie

You ask me all the time
Keep on asking me bout where my future lies
But I've been looking at the prize
And not the way on how I'm gonna get there
It's all up in the air right now
I couldn't tell you where I would apply
Obviously I try
I just don't make it clear to you what I want to do in life

He lays in bed at night
I tell him not to check the monsters under the bed
The question remains did he listen to me
Or is gonna check again once I've left
Time's so strange the way it passes
You try to live it at your own pace and never can
I don't understand it
I don't understand it
So call me again, again, again, again, again

You ask me all the time
Keep on asking me bout where my future lies
But I've been looking at the prize
And not the way on how I'm gonna get there
It's all up in the air right now
I couldn't tell you where I would apply
Obviously I try
I just don't make it clear to you what I want to do in life

In my future I'm living with a child and wife
Making me feel I can't do nothing wrong, just things I'll do right
Politically balanced, I'll split me and girl's families into two different sides
Bipartisan awkwardness, and it'll get even worse
Somebody brings up the loss of black lives
The tension of families
Is something that you can't avoid
But I don't act up like a fool
I just manipulate the people like they're action toys
Certain people get so passionate that they just won't shut up
And I don't see that changing anytime soon
It's conditional love

You ask me all the time
Keep on asking me bout where my future lies
But I've been looking at the prize
And not the way on how I'm gonna get there
It's all up in the air right now
I couldn't tell you where I would apply
Obviously I try
I just don't make it clear to you what I want to do in life

Can we, Can we, Can we
Can we, Can we, Can we
Can we compromise
Can we compromise
Can we compromise
Can we compromise
Can we compromise
Can we compromise
Can we compromise
Can we compromise
Yeah, oh
