lyrics

It’s the new year you got your goals
You’re gonna make changes and take control
But in a couple weeks you’ll be falling behind
And statistics show it’s quitting time

Yup, everybody does it
They wait the whole year to make a change then give up it’s
So common that you could place a bet
All the reasons that they needed somehow they forget

Progress down the drain
This year’s gonna be about the bout the same
You had goals, but now you don’t
Three week’s gone by and you’ve given up hope

This year’s the year, it’s gonna be different
At least for a week until you quit again
I know you, you got busy
Just like last year before you started quitting

But this year, it’s different
You know like last year before quitting
It’s all the same stuff
Ra ra ra, then you gave up

Your goal’s slipping, as time lapses
You had plans, till life happened
You’re all about that hustle
But when nobody is looking you won’t lift a fucking muscle

I don’t really mean to judge
I’ve just been around I’ve seen too much
It’s always the same, so stupid
Starts with cliche quotes and ends with excuses

I can’t watch, it’s too painful
Your progress is like a dull knife trying to cut tomatoes
Call it quits, no take two
You’re so far behind Tony Robbins can’t save you

But this year’s gonna be different
At least for a week until you quit again
I know you, you got busy
Just like last year before you started quitting

But this year, it’s different
You know like last year before quitting
It’s all the same stuff
Ra ra ra, then you gave up
