Gunning for a Promotion - Aviators

I’m waking up

To new frustrations

Been looking for the light

Illumination

These Monarch lands

Hold tainted water

They’re starving out the lost

Their sons and daughters

Get up and refuse

Pick a calling

They don’t know your name

But I do

Sick of being used?

We’re still falling

They won’t be the same

When I’m through

Diverge the chase

Don’t follow pace

Make your own way through the heavens

To raise hell

Drum up the last yell

For the ones just getting by

So my coin is flipped

And this sale has shipped

I am on my way to deliver

In motion

Gunning for a promotion

'Cause I won’t let the status slide

I’m thawing out

Restored by starlight

I push against the tide

The planet’s birthright

We’re building up

A new solution

To tear it down for good

The institution

Get up and refuse

Pick a calling

They don’t know your name

But I do

Sick of being used?

We’re still falling

They won’t be the same

When I’m through

Diverge the chase

Don’t follow pace

Make your own way through the heavens

To raise hell

Drum up the last yell

For the ones just getting by

So my coin is flipped

And this sale has shipped

I am on my way to deliver

In motion

Gunning for a promotion

'Cause I won’t let the status slide

Meeting up and crashing down

They’re suffocating

In these godforsaken towns

We’re sick of waiting

For the odds to flip our way

With pockets empty

We could force the board to pay

Light this starry night

I’ll bring the fire

If you make this tragedy right

I’ve been inspired

By the cold hearts far and wide

The cheated system’s

Gonna fight back for its life

Diverge the chase

Don’t follow pace

Gunning for a promotion

'Cause I won’t let the status slide

Diverge the chase

Don’t follow pace

Make your own way through the heavens

To raise hell

Drum up the last yell

For the ones just getting by

So my coin is flipped

And this sale has shipped

I am on my way to deliver
