| If I were, if I were, if I were in your place
|
| If the light that was shining upon you fell on my face
|
| Oh I would have purpose, I would have peace if I had your fire and grace
|
| If I were, if I were, if I were in your place
|
| I’ve never seen you struggling with crisis
|
| Who would’ve thought
|
| Someone so vibrant was suffering in silence
|
| I just thought if I could take your spot for a day
|
| That would wash all of my problems away
|
| But you wear that mirage of perfection like a mask for depression
|
| Never asked if you’re okay only asked for your blessing
|
| I’m fathomless
|
| Once I was blind with my judgements
|
| But happiness doesn’t coincide with abundance
|
| If we could truly see the beauty in simplicity
|
| Maybe you and me could soothe the beast and live blissfully
|
| Is it our wonder or the struggle in our nature
|
| That creates a hunger 'til we’re coveting our neighbour
|
| Because everybody want an ace of diamonds
|
| When they’re holding a deck of spades
|
| We’re all tryna fill a place inside us
|
| A prison guard to an empty space
|
| If I were, if I were, if I were in your place
|
| If the light that was shining upon you fell on my face
|
| Oh I would have purpose, I would have peace if I had your fire and grace
|
| If I were, if I were, if I were in your place
|
| Get it
|
| When we find a value in other people’s beauty
|
| When all we see is champions and we are just fans
|
| When we’re so shallow and impressed by the jewellery
|
| We find it so challenging 'cause we are just Stans
|
| And they are all gods, they are all goddesses
|
| We are just a hive in the halls of our offices
|
| We are just admirers, but find that the thing is
|
| The happiest people that we know the least ambitious
|
| Look, with success comes the lessons like
|
| Don’t get me wrong, I feel blessed but like every time,
|
| I’ve been sitting in a winning position, I felt confusion
|
| 'Cause it didn’t feel like winning just felt like I wasn’t losing
|
| I’m trying to destroy my heroes
|
| Because I’m not trying to claw at peaks
|
| I can admire your fire but still know that we’re
|
| All born flawed human beings, you know
|
| If you were in my place
|
| You’d see your fire and grace
|
| If I were, if I were, if I were in your place
|
| If the light that was shining upon you fell on my face
|
| Oh I would have purpose, I would have peace if I had your fire and grace
|
| If I were, if I were, if I were in your place
|
| Troubled waters can appear calm on the surface
|
| A cool facade can be fueled by a furnace
|
| I got grace under fire, you got fire and grace
|
| But if I were, if I were, if I were in your place |
