“Slave to My Ego” grew out of a quiet moment of clarity—realizing that after years of reshaping yourself to make a deep, long-term relationship work, some of your favorite parts may have slipped away. The song isn’t about regret or blame, but rediscovery: reconnecting with your instincts, passions, and inner voice, and finding the courage to reclaim what matters. It’s reflective, emotionally honest, and forward-looking, blending awareness with momentum.
That balance between self-discovery and respect for the love that shaped you runs through this track and across Zero-G Racetrack’s music, inviting listeners to explore songs that move, reflect, and resonate with real human truth.

(Verse 1)
I’m hanging out on my frontline
Been drinking water that I thought was red wine
Stone cold sober but out of my mind
Crazy is as crazy does; I can’t unwind
And if it seems that my life is running right down a line
Pulling me from behind and not from inside
This thing I think I cannot find
It seems it’s likely that it’s already mine
(Chorus)
I’m just a slave to my ego
Sometimes I’m high and sometimes I’m low
Over the top or way below
I always go with what I know
(Verse 2)
I pick the locks of the ties that bind
Head over heels on a road with no signs
Worn all over, but still in my prime
Always and another day; I take my time
And if it seems that my life is running right down a line
Pulling me from behind and not from inside
This thing I think I cannot find
It seems it’s likely that it’s already mine
(Chorus)
(Verse 3)
And if it seems that my life is running right down a line
Pulling me from behind and not from inside
This thing I think I cannot find
It seems it’s likely that it’s already mine
(Repeat Chorus)
