lyrics
I’m pushing my bearings to the wall
I don’t wanna stop or else I’ll fall
I killed a pair of trucks to shred
Skateboarding is my best friend
And i wanna skate away
Cuz I've been pushing all day
And you cant get in my way
Wood slab with wheels lay beneath both my feet
I feel a pebble stop and see
I don’t wanna feel the pavement
And i wanna skate away
And I've been pushing all day
And you cant get in my way
I don’t want to, fall on a rock
Such a small thing to cause a fall
I don’t want to, scrape my arms
I don’t to
I don’t want to fall on a rock
