In This Cage

from Branch of the Tree by Jared Rogerson

lyrics

All those years I spent in school I had no idea I’d be standing right here in front of you/ Now I’m pouring out my heart tonight and I do believe I got it right/ I can finally say I’ve got nothing to prove

I landed that lofty degree/ Well, look at me can you believe somehow I still don’t act my age/ I never was a prodigy, just worked real hard at livin’ free/ And that put me here in this cage

My cost of livin’ might’ve been a whole lot cheaper if I hadn’t busted out of my shell/ Spent some dough just to get burned/ Probably the biggest lesson learned, you better beware of yourself

I landed that lofty degree/ Well, look at me can you believe somehow I still don’t act my age/ I never was a prodigy, just worked real hard at livin’ dreams that put me here in this cage

You nod your head and yell, hell yeah, no regrets/ Then you get bucked off and land in a huge pile of debt

I can see myself when I get out of this prison/Well, I’ll be so rich that I won’t need a job/ ‘cause I’ll write a song that wins the lottery inspired by life’s dichotomy/ Or else find another a big ol’ bank to rob

I landed that lofty degree/ Well look at me, man, can you believe somehow I still don’t act my age/ I never was a prodigy, just worked real hard at livin’ free and that put me here, right here, in this cage

In this cage
Could you, maybe pass the soap… please?
Uh-oh
