In the dead of the night when I'm awake Do you think about tomorrow or yesterday when it's Forgotten do you wish I stayed? I'm tryna be right this is my life I can't stay so I just fade So you like the guy with dreams and goals You were tired of the men who had sold their souls Following the fold, but that's not true Following the gold, that's more like you Now a chance to escape from all of that life cause You want to escape from all of that right? Here's your chance but I want you well in advance Still you decide to trash out, change your face I'll tell you right now lady that you know we're going places So while we ride please girl hold on Take my hand now girl and we can't go wrong Hope you realize chancing dreams ain't easy There are times when you can't fight believe me Too much of your life's plan Let's just swing it life's a game and I'm begging you To bring it right here (right here) I know (I know) that there's too much too lose It's a wake up call girl, but you're still hitting snooze You say "give up" too quickly and I don't know why But I know will miss me when you lie awake and cry In the dead of the night when I'm awake Do you think about tomorrow or yesterday when it's Forgotten do you wish I stayed? I'm tryna be right this is my life I can't stay so I just fade I told you that I wanna be a music man You said "alright baby what's your back up plan?" I wonder why that's the first place you go You could have a little faith girl, you know? I know this dream could be a long shot But you could show some support and what not Finally found an answer to return and say, made it up That's what daddy does anyway I feel bad how I was forced to lie, sometimes your dreams need an alibi Clearly that's an answer she likes to hear She grabs her and whispers something in my ear: "you're gonna be a great man one day" Yeah maybe I'll get mine someday I'd rather leave and not lie It ain't right but now you're stuck right here girl In the dead of the night when I'm awake Do you think about tomorrow or yesterday when it's Forgotten do you wish I stayed? I'm tryna be right this is my life I can't stay so I just fade In the dead of the night when I'm awake Do you think about tomorrow or yesterday when it's Forgotten do you wish I stayed? I'm tryna be right this is my life I can't stay so I just fade
