FROM ALBUM: Heavy Weighs The King
REVIEWS: 1
Broke down, busted
Hot wired, dusty
I stole my car from the city lot
Cause last night’s buzz is all I got -
Now I’m rolling, wide eyed, I’m never stuck on the sidelines
Ask me why I gotta leave this town again
I’ll do what it takes to stay alive
Forget the rules; they don’t apply
I’d lose my mind at your 9 to 5
Cause it’s not my kind of life
I just wanna know why
Why I gotta be quiet
I don’t wanna just sit down and shut my mouth
All these things I could do without
I wanna new life
I just wanna drive all night
Wake up in the sunrise and love myself again!
We’re living on nothin’
Reachin’ for somethin’
Cheap t-shirts, old blue jeans
Big black boots and too much caffeine
Yeah I’m a smart ass, I’m up tight, I never back down from a fistfight
Might be why I gotta leave this town again!
I’ll do what it takes to stay alive
Forget the rules; they don’t apply
I’d lose my mind at your 9 to 5
Cause it’s not my kind of life
I just wanna know why
Why I gotta be quiet
I don’t wanna just sit down and shut my mouth
All that crap I could do without
I wanna new life
I just wanna drive all night
Wake up in the sunrise and love myself again!
And who are they to call me crazy
(You see what you wanna see)
You know their never gonna change me
(Cause I’ll be who I wanna be)
We gotta live the way we wanna
Cause nobody ever oughta just waste away, waste away
And what’s wrong with being happy
(Ya know you’d love it if you tried)
I know that everybody can be
(If only for a little while)
We’re gonna make it to the end
Ya gotta chase it till ya win, I wanna feel free, I wanna be free
I wanna new life
I wanna drive all night
I wanna wake up in the sunrise and love myself again
I just wanna know why
Why I gotta be quiet
I don’t wanna just sit down and shut my mouth
All this s*** I could do without
I wanna new life
I just wanna drive all night
Wake up in the sunrise and love myself again!
(We gotta live the way we wanna cause nobody ever oughta just waste away)

Don't Wanna
I love the line, Might be why I gotta leave this town again'!
This song speaks to me of a young band, living out of an RV or old painted bus, with their dreams, hoping to make it... and I'm sitting here wondering why it hasn't happened yet!
Normally I have to listen to a song 10 times or so, before I decide whether I like it or not. This one, has the catchy up-beat tune, and distinctive clever lyrics that I think I'll discover are the trademarks of I Nine. And from the first time I heard it, I had no problem rating it, or reviewing it.
I love the way this band turns their thoughts and feelings, into notes and lines, and makes the two mesh into the world of music, similar to a 'Supertramp' (the style of music is incomparable, but the way they put the score and the lyrics together are) of the '70s.
These guys are ahead of their time!!
