Climbing to the top of your favorite ladder Strainin' and sweatin' to achieve that goal Years later question how you missed what mattered You ride that road-you gotta pay that toll
Man on the phone he's askin' about The state of the American dream We buy out, trade down, sell our souls, And finally wonder what it all means, yeah, What's it all mean?
If you could catch that fish and reel 'er in If you could sit on the throne And really be king If you had ears to hear you might consider one thing Are you throwin' away what's real, Tradin' for a brass ring
One test. Are you a slave to your own definition of happiness?
Climbin' to the top of your favorite ladder Years later question how you missed what mattered Ride that road-you gotta pay that toll
Climbin' to the top of your favorite ladder Years later question how you missed what mattered Ya ride that road-you gotta pay that toll
