Episode Synopsis

They told you how it’s gotta be
But old friend you never asked me
You can paint inside the lines
Obey all the traffic signs
Blink twice if you want to break free

They told you if you want to advance
You’ve gotta put on your tap shoes and dance
Put on a little show
Sing to the back row
Only then they just might give you a chance

You don’t want to be stuck
Spinning wheels in the muck
With your armchair philosophers and fools
You might just need a little practice
breaking the rules

You lay out all your bricks in a row
Cause that’s the way you
Always thought they should go
But if you want to build a path
Only part of that is math
But it’s mostly intuition and flow

If you wanna make something that’s
lasting and strong
Don’t worry about whether you’re
doing it wrong

They told you better stay in your lane
But you’ve never been one to complain
So you take it on the chin
And you let the voices in
Of those to whom your loss is their gain

But those voices they’ll all fade to a drone
When you learn how to follow your own
From then on what you make
When your heart is wide awake
Will rise like the sun and stand alone

Cause you don’t want to be stuck
Spinning wheels in the muck
With your armchair philosophers and fools
You might just need a little practice
breaking the rules

You don’t want to be stuck
Spinning wheels in the muck
With your armchair philosophers and fools
You might just need a little practice
breaking the rules
