25 or 6 to 4 Lyrics Meaning

24 hours in a day, 25 to go the extra mile, if you can carry your work to the next day; no rest for the wicked in their chase for infinity.
6AM-4PM is 10 hours, 2 more than your usual 8. Listen to the rhythm, the guitar solo is reminiscent of Hendrix’s “All Along the Watchtower” where princes kept their view.
I found this song when I was 24, chasing wine with alchemy, overworking for a life I’ll never live long enough to reach. It’s a warning, it’s encouragement, it’s recognition.
