Exceptional
Music & Lyrics by: Mike Vranjkovic, Kris Haydel, & James DuMaine
Look at these beans, I count to pay my rent
I’m really sick and tired of this, these years that I have spent
Multiply, divide, the square root of my life is the will to survive
Just another number, just another number, expendable
Add, subtract, well everyone’s expendable
But I’m more than just a blip, I can balance, I can flip
Blue chips or pink slips, ship high in transit
Jump through corporate hoops, yeah all the corporate hoops
But I’m ready to reboot out of this infinite do-loop
Here I am
I’m in control…in the air
This ‘s my chance
I’m ready to go
How many times do I have to bang my head against the wall
Just to know that I’m alive and have a pulse
How many days must I bear this pain (ship high in transit)
Monday (just another day) through Friday (just another week)
(Just another number) Fed up hamsters in a cage
Here I am
I’m in control…in the air
This ‘s my chance
I’m ready to go
The view from the top is beautiful ‘cause you said I couldn’t climb
Man, I was gettin’ too claustrophobic in this little cage of mine
Ten years in a cubicle make a grown man lose his mind
So, I pushed ahead, foot to the gas, white trails in my blind.
Smooth glide, no rough ride, no turbulence on my drive
No second thoughts when I fly, just me and the sky
Here I am
I’m in control…well up in the air
This ‘s my chance
I’m ready to go
HERE I AM!……..
Here I am
I’m in control, finally home
(HERE I AM!...)
Here I am
I’m in control (Ain’t nothing gonna hold me down, I walk among the clouds)…in the air
This ‘s my chance
I’m ready to go (Ain’t nothing gonna hold me down, ‘cause here I am)
I’m in control…in the air
This ‘s my chance (This my chance)
I’m ready to go (Life is exceptional but)
(Everyone’s expendable)
