akala - defeated lyrics

[verse 1]
i used to feel it in my heart with a passion
it would pump from my veins
was the fuel for my actions
such that it was my cane and my crutch
i was sure it was real
i could taste, i could touch
i was it, and it was mine
i felt free for the first time
i was sure they were behind me so i never turned
i just kept going straight which means i never learned
and when i finally did take a look around
my world came to the ground
and this is what i found
the truth is hard to swallow, harder to follow
when the blessings you receive for your deeds seem hollow

[chorus 1]
chasin’ for the sun
i was born to run
but i feel like i’m defeated
i feel like i’m defeated
i feel like i’m defeated
but i will not be beaten

[verse 2]
no matter how i fight, they always outgun me
no matter how i sprint, time will outrun me
i’m stuck in a rat race ’round about lap eight
every time i go around, i feel like the track changed
the goalposts keep movin’
how can i reach one when there are no conclusions?
the poor, wise man or am i the rich fool
at the bottom of the road still scared of the pitfalls?
fat cats and poor kids both bloated
life is a bitter pill with a sugar coatin’
even a queen can be taken by a p+wn
darkest hour is the one before dawn
[chorus 2]
chasin’ for the sun
i was born to run
but i feel like i’m defeated
i feel like i’m defeated

[chorus 1]
chasin’ for the sun
i was born to run
but i feel like i’m defeated
i feel like i’m defeated
i feel like i’m defeated
but i will not be beaten
