[Chorus: RoZe]
So many times I don't know which way to go
Seem like all my life I've been surrounded by lazy folks
Who just live their life no different from the day before
It was the same old song, so I turned off the radio
I turned off the radio (radio, radio)
I turned off the radio (radio, radio), yeah
I turned off the radio (radio, radio)
I turned off the radio (radio, radio), yeah
(Radio)

[Verse 1: Abstract]
Step into the party, thinking, "What the hell we drinking to?"
All of y'all in college but your knowledge lack the news
There's terror growin' overseas and on our own soil
They losing faith in those who govern, we in turmoil
But we smoke, drink, love, hate, and burn oil
Afraid to add your bitter heat while the pot boils
Thinkin' that the problems of the world won't come apply to you
Whisper 'bout me 'cause I'm being more reserved, you a fool
I'm just focused on my future, doin' what I can
Rarely in the moment, mind is always on a plan
You busy thinking 'bout how you gon' go and get your next girl
I'm busy thinking 'bout how I'm gon' help to change the world
First chase the dreams, know the women, follow after
You focused on one night, I'm focused on life as a rapper
As an artist, as a man working his hardest
I'ma give 'em something real, you and radio keep your garbage

[Chorus: RoZe]
So many times I don't know which way to go
Seem like all my life I've been surrounded by lazy folks
Who just live their life no different from the day before
It was the same old song, so I turned off the radio
I turned off the radio (radio, radio)
I turned off the radio (radio, radio), yeah
I turned off the radio (radio, radio)
I turned off the radio (radio, radio), yeah
(Radio)

[Verse 2: Abstract]
You gon' sit repeat that same hit song
Upbeat and careless like there ain't shit wrong
Like there ain't lives lost, like there ain't lines crossed
Pray for change, not taking action while you grip that cross
I'm not gonna lie, I'm a believer in God
But prayers and ALS video not truly helping the cause
Yes, it's spreading awareness but purely benefits you
They see those vids on their Facebook, they wanna be part of it too
Same story for some who take a knee in the pew
Ain't taking part in the teachings or livin' morals they show
It's something they can be part of and just a place they can go
Collection plate comes around, they acting like they be broke
Ice all on their head but ain't a check to be wrote
Couple likes on your video, a handshake from the priest
Even though you ain't paid, feel like you got a receipt
Back next week singin' that same old song like ain't shit wrong

[Chorus: RoZe]
So many times I don't know which way to go
Seem like all my life I've been surrounded by lazy folks
Who just live their life no different from the day before
It was the same old song, so I turned off the radio
I turned off the radio (radio, radio)
I turned off the radio (radio, radio), yeah
I turned off the radio (radio, radio)
I turned off the radio (radio, radio), yeah
(Radio)

Abstract

Growing up in New Jersey, Luke Terkovich, otherwise known as Abstract, was involved with music at an early age. Learning how to play piano, electric guitar, and the drums were Luke’s first involvement with music — and he did it all before 6th grade. With a move across country from New Jersey to Jackson, Wyoming, the distance between learning and playing new instruments got larger. It wasn’t until several years later that Luke began to mess around with freestyling during his high school years spent at Jackson Hole High. Evolving his newly found musical expression into Raised in Jackson, WY, Abstract is known for his immense musical versatility and affinity for providing uplifting music for a turbulent world. With a knack for storytelling, he provides introspective motivation to all who take the time to dive into his work. Notably known for his remix of Ruth Bs Lost Boy “Neverland” which has garnered hundreds of millions of plays on YouTube, his work with Drumma Battalion and Roze, and his 2016 album Something to Write Home About. He heads a collective known as “A Team Worldwide” 5 musicians from 4 different countries. Producers Drumma Battalion of Norway, Blulake of Sweden, Cryo Music of Scotland, and Abstract. Coming off his first overseas tour with YONAS, the ATWW collective is gearing up to drop Abstracts new album/experience late summer 2018.writing detailed lyrics, he began to find that he could vent the stresses of his everyday life through creating music. Slowly progressing through the years of his new town where he calls home; balancing school, life, and music developed Luke to become Abstract.

Trying to find his sound was a young teenager who just looked to get something written down and then translated into music, and eventually rap. Still in his caterpillar stage of metamorphosis was a young Abstract who released his first ever collection of songs, properly named The Dream.

In 2012, through YouTube, Abstract met Craig McAllister, a producer from Glasgow, Scotland. During that period, Abstract was in the midst of working on On My Own Time and was the first time Craig showed up with Abstract. Afterwards, the duo started to mesh extremely well and produced the five projects, Under Lights & Microscopes, A Life To Live By, Dreaming With Eyes Open, The Science Of Feeling Tall, and We Are The Artist.
