scrooge kid – obstacles lyrics

[hook]
obstacles can look a lot like building blocks
depending on the light
one moment my goals are in reach
next thing they’re out of sight
i can seem to right what i’ve wrong
no matter what i write
i can’t see the bright side of life
trying with all my might
obstacles can look a lot like building blocks
depending on the light
one moment my goals are in reach
next thing they’re out of sight
i can seem to right what i’ve wrong
no matter what i write
i can’t see the bright side of life
trying with all my might

[verse 1]
i bought new gl-sses to experience new vision
the frames didn’t fit unless i moved with precision
dropped them on the floor, now there’s scratches on the lenses
seeing things that don’t exist, affecting my decisions
when i bought them new i knew they’d change my face forever
custom built by hand and the case was made of leather
never took them off ’cause i like me in them better
never saw the day that we’d no longer be together
remember seeing 20/20, maybe i was dreaming
‘long as i remember, blurry is how the world was seeming
i was a visionary child, viewing clear and scheming
somewhere in there i woke up and was having trouble reading
things were looking worse with each decision that i made
and who’s to notice when one’s ocular starts to degrade
there were times i left, in retrospect i should have stayed
instead i headed right into the wall and broke the foundation that we laid
[hook]
obstacles can look a lot like building blocks
depending on the light
one moment my goals are in reach
next thing they’re out of sight
i can seem to right what i’ve wrong
no matter what i write
i can’t see the bright side of life
trying with all my might
obstacles can look a lot like building blocks
depending on the light
one moment my goals are in reach
next thing they’re out of sight
i can seem to right what i’ve wrong
no matter what i write
i can’t see the bright side of life
trying with all my might

[verse 2]
i’m losing focus and conviction
if seeing is believing, you could say i’m faithless living
i can’t make out my path, time to change the prescription
i promised i’d call my mother before i have a conniption
(obstacles) the steps you take when you can’t see straight
i’m sitting by a rough sea, and still ain’t seeing no breaks
i did it by the book, i gave it everything that it takes
i even wore them longer than i should, and i get no thanks
i tried professional repairs, no warranty for wear-and-tear
i’m sorry, but perhaps you’d like a new pair?
no thanks, i’ll wear them more (ugh) these are an eye sore
j reminds me there’s many gl-sses in the eye store
(obstacles) reflecting on the pairs that i wore
most of them i would have given an eye for
without them, i don’t see meaning
don’t see the mess, i’ve neglected apartment cleaning
seemingly out of options, tired of breaking the merchandise
the value added never seems to match the purchase price
and god forbid i ever take advice
like i’m the only one who doesn’t see i’m not meant for this hazy life
i give the gl-ss a wipe, my life’s a spectacle
p-ssed up some choice designer frames, though i’m susceptible
lasik consultation said my vision is correctable
left the doctor’s office, and my specs in the receptacle

[outro]
obstacles
