lyrics

It ain't fair, but I know it to be true
By myself, I can make my way better
Even light of all this worst
But I can't lie, it hurts my heart to know
That we are truly helpless
And that all that we love will soon burn

It'll all burn

I've always wanted to be a nascar dad, a nascar dad
Way too buzzed for a Sunday, my wife checking in every 50-some odd laps
I've always wanted to have a couple kids
Let them run around, let them be their selves
I've always wanted to be a nascar dad, but the world won't last

I know there be people hanging round
Starting families, having babies
Bringing them into a life that'll hurt them
Big men ruling the world don't care about us and our paths
They just want to burn our world to the ground because they can

They know they can

I've always wanted to be a nascar dad, a nascar dad
Way too buzzed for a Sunday, my wife checking in every 50-some odd laps
I've always wanted to have a couple kids
Let them run around, let them be their selves
I've always wanted to be a nascar dad, but the world won't last

Profit margins are more valuable than people
Why would I try to family when I know things will be even harder so soon?
For all of us out there, yeah then soon enough for everyone
I don't want to bring kids into this life without asking first

And I can't

I've always wanted to be a nascar dad, a nascar dad
Way too buzzed for a Sunday, my wife checking in every 50-some odd laps
I've always wanted to have a couple kids
Let them run around, let them be their selves
I always wanted to be a nascar dad, but the world won't last
