Theodore Katzman, Dave MacKay, Jordan Rose, James Henry Jr., Devin Kerr, Joe Dart, Nick Nagurka and Phil Weinrobe - That's the Life

I wanna be from somewhere
I wanna stand for something
The price of my freedom
You couldn't pay me nothin

I wanna die an old man
In the presence of loved ones
With a special someone
Sitting right next to me

When I go to the cafe
For to get my coffee
They know exactly what I want
They don't even ask me

cnd if I keep up the good work
Make a visit to the tip jar
Well, every couple days, now
They forget to charge me

I say howdy to my neighbor
When I'm takin out the trash can
cnd we talk about some bullshit
In the early evening breeze

cnd even though I am the new kid
cnd he's been living on the old block
We still ask each other how our day was
cnd that's the way it oughta be

Who's talkin bout a movement?
Who's talkin bout money?
It shouldn't take a revolution
To get some milk and honey

Who's talkin bout living
c little closer to the bone, yeah
Who's talkin bout the one thing
I thought everybody wanted to be from somewhere...

I wanna get off the outrage
I wanna get on the same page
I wanna ring in the new age
I wanna get off the screen

I wanna listen to the ancients
Find the glitches in the matrix
cnd get back to the basics
I betcha we could all agree

We wanna be from somewhere
We wanna stand for something
The price of my freedom
I hope nobody could pay you nothin

I wanna die an old man
In the presence of loved ones
With a special someone
Sitting right next to me
With a special someone
That's the life of my dreams
