[Verse 1] Folks blow past that four-way stop… like the rules don’t matter none… Spinning wheels on gravel roads… trying to outrun the sun… Everybody’s got a somewhere, but nowhere ever feels like home… We’re chasing down tomorrow… while today sits alone… [Pre-Chorus] And I swear this world keeps hummin’ like a freight train off its track… But when you look behind you, half your life ain’t comin’ back… [Chorus] Rush, rush, rush… but we’re never really anywhere… Flying so fast through the moments we forget to even care… We don’t breathe, we don’t blink, we don’t taste the sweet in the air… Rush, rush, rush… and somehow we wind up standin’ still right there… [Verse 2] Mama used to tell me, “Child… slow down, lift your eyes…” But the world’s got folks convinced that hurryin’ makes a life… We scroll through every sunrise like it’s nothing but a post… Forgetting all the simple things that ever mattered most… [Pre-Chorus] Every heartbeat’s whisperin’ that we’re missin’ out again… Tryin’ so hard to get ahead we forget where we’ve been… [Chorus] Rush, rush, rush… but we’re never really anywhere… Flying so fast through the moments we forget to even care… We don’t breathe, we don’t blink, we don’t taste the sweet in the air… Rush, rush, rush… and somehow we wind up standin’ still right there… [Bridge] Maybe life ain’t ‘bout the finish, maybe it’s the front porch swing… Bare feet on the cool grass… cicadas tryin’ to sing… Maybe all we need is one deep breath to understand… The best part of the journey’s right here where we stand… [Final Chorus] Rush, rush, rush… but I’m learnin’ I don’t wanna live that way… I want sunshine on my shoulders… not a blur from yesterday… Let the world spin how it wants to… I’ll be right here, aware… Rush, rush, rush… no more… I’m finally somewhere…
