Obstacles


O-oh obstacles, Always getting in my lane, Oh obstacles, Man what can I say, Oh obstacles, Always getting in my face. But I'll sit & wait, trying to accept my fate, that there will always be trouble my way. O-ooh obstacles, Always driving me insane, Oh obstacles, They just take, take, and take, Oh obstacles, always calling me names. (La, la, la, la, la, la)
