i wanna move everything out of my way
[Verse 1]
When I start a fresh page of writing
When I start a new phrase or verse
There’s always someone asking a favour
And they don’t know what that favour is worth
[Verse 2]
When I start a fresh piece of my paper
I can barely get a word or two
Yeah, every time my hands hit the keyboard
I’m being given something else to do
[Chorus]
The list keeps growing
Wanna put myself first but it never works
So I just keep going
I try to stop it but it’s getting worse
Yeah the list keeps growing day by day
I wanna move everything out of my way
But I can’t seem to shake the responsibility
That everyone I know keeps giving me
[Verse 3]
When I sit myself down for my studies
I’m hit with notifications to read
I don’t have time to understand the assignment
There’s always something they urgently need
[Verse 4]
I wanna lock myself out of society
No-one can see I’ve got a life of my own
I tell them I don’t wanna be of service no more
But they keep blowing up my comfort zone
[Chorus]
The list keeps growing
Wanna put myself first but it never works
So I just keep going
I try to stop it but it’s getting worse
Yeah the list keeps growing day by day
I wanna move everything out of my way
But I can’t seem to shake the responsibility
That everyone I know keeps giving me
