Call me the canary in the coal mine
Not afraid to go and try the first time
What I got to lose? I’ve got everything to prove

Maybe I can go and find a gold mine
Waiting right in front of me the whole time
Wonder if it’s true, don’t got anything to lose

Waking up at 5 am to go and catch the sunrise
Wait, I mean my bus ride
Dark until I get up to the frontlines

Stuck up at my desk
I count the seconds til’ its lunchtime
Story of success or just a joke
And I’m the punchline

Done tryna move up
Boutta’ Ferris Bueller outta’ here
Making my escape
As soon as water cooler coast is clear

Closed computer
Knew the opportunity was rare
This commuter boutta’ ride away like
Name was Paul Revere

I barely know a single sucker
That’s been working here
But there’s a constant ringing
Back and forth thru both my ears

The boss been stoking fear
I’m boutta’ poke the bear
I left a strongly worded
Post it note up on his chair

And I hope it makes my message clear

Took a bathroom break
And broke for freedom thru the exit stairs
And just like that I disappeared
I think it’s time for celebration beers

Call me the canary in the coal mine
Not afraid to go and try the first time
What I got to lose? I’ve got everything to prove

Maybe I can go and find a gold mine
Waiting right in front of me the whole time
Wonder if it’s true, don’t got anything to lose

Okay so now I’m free as a bird
Flipped the bird as I left
Feel like the world’s
Lifted off of my chest

I can breathe again
Immediately iI could feel the wind
Was tryna’ lead me down the street
To go and meet up with my friends

What a while it’s been
Since I went out with all of them
Now I’ve got the time
Without a doubt I’m rolling in

Felt the warmest welcome
When they opened up their wings
Yeah I don’t regret a thing
Won’t ever leave again

I’m in the clouds and I ain’t coming down
And I can’t get this smile off my chin
Everyone’s down to take over the town
And get set up with bottle servicing

Round after round we were throwing ‘em down
And I felt like I’m finally crowned the king
Hell of a night we were up until 5
When I heard my alarm clock start to ring
Feels so good to just forget about it
Feels so good to be up and out it
Didn’t take long to forget about it

Call me the canary in the coal mine
Not afraid to go and try the first time
What I got to lose? I’ve got everything to prove

Maybe I can go and find a gold mine
Waiting right in front of me the whole time
Wonder if it’s true, don’t got anything to lose
