| Everything I said I wouldn’t do, I did
|
| Life just happens and it is what it is
|
| That’s how I used to think as a kid
|
| But better learn to swim or you’ll sink with the ship
|
| 'Cause in a blink of a lid, you’ll be twice your age
|
| And then till now is like night and day
|
| And that perfect life that you’re fighting for
|
| Can be lost in a series of sliding doors
|
| Too proud to say that you need some help
|
| When you look In the mirror do you see yourself?
|
| See the way I was I couldn’t stand it honestly
|
| 'Cause the old me was tryna kill the man I wanna be
|
| And so life took me on the scenic route
|
| To reach deep inside and get the demons out
|
| Then turn that storm to vanilla in the summer sky
|
| Caterpillar to a butterfly
|
| I must be going crazy
|
| I got blood across my face
|
| I’ve got tears that I can taste
|
| I swear this world is tryna break me
|
| ‘Cause the walls are closing in
|
| And my soul is wearin' thin
|
| But you should know that
|
| I’m right here waiting
|
| When you’re done, baby
|
| Had to tell myself I believe in you
|
| Had to tell myself I believe in you
|
| Lord knows I been running from my dream
|
| But I keep trippin' when the devil’s tugging on my sleeve
|
| And the game don’t stop when the ball’s in my hand
|
| But that party life will put a pause on my plans
|
| But we don’t make our faith
|
| And mistakes are what shape you and make you great
|
| So to sum it all up into words
|
| I never win or lose, I only win or learn
|
| All the drugs and drink, I’m a victim of that
|
| You know what curiosity did to the cat
|
| We were looking for a high where we knew we’d never land
|
| But now that I’m a dad I’m tryna' be a better man
|
| And the music allowed us to give you something
|
| When it hits home it can stop a kid from jumpin'
|
| I was on the wrong path but I made a turn right
|
| Then I opened my eyes for the very first time, like
|
| I must be going crazy
|
| I got blood across my face
|
| I’ve got tears that I can taste
|
| I swear this world is tryna break me
|
| ‘Cause the walls are closing in
|
| And my soul is wearin' thin
|
| But you should know that
|
| I’m right here waiting
|
| When you’re done, baby
|
| Had to tell myself I believe in you
|
| Had to tell myself I believe in you
|
| It doesn’t matter what god you worship
|
| ‘Cause here on earth, no body’s perfect
|
| You wanna be the hero that saves the day
|
| But the truth is everybody makes mistakes
|
| So, when you’re out her fallin' down
|
| And temptation is all around
|
| Put your good foot first and bust out the other side
|
| Just like a butterfly
|
| Livin' in a world where this binge is the norm, and
|
| Every night out was like till six in the morning
|
| But I should be kicking goals, my passion’s musical
|
| So why the fuck am I back in this cubical?
|
| Shit, flying off rails
|
| Like a train wreck but I will not fail
|
| So tonight imam pack my bags
|
| And leave the old me behind and the past I’ve had, like
|
| I must be going crazy
|
| I got blood across my face
|
| I’ve got tears that I can taste
|
| I swear this world is tryna break me
|
| ‘Cause the walls are closing in
|
| And my soul is wearin' thin
|
| But you should know that
|
| I’m right here waiting
|
| When you’re done, baby
|
| Had to tell myself I believe in you |
