Dougie DL - The Journey to the Top Floor lyrics

Intro: I swear I do it for the people I swear I do it for the people I swear I do it for the mothers and the brothers and all the f**ing others Verse 1: But right now as I cry under the covers It's my future that hovers Over my body lying in desperation I'm facing absolute devastation While writing songs to make others feel better about their wrongs I forgot to pay attention to myself I became so selfless that I lost myself And now I have to pick up all the pieces My life is a puzzle that I put together But soon tore apart It's like I was hit with a single dart And exploded like Japan I was told that I gotta be a man Because I got so many people who are my Stan But I'm sorry to my fan Sometimes I gotta depart from the plan Chorus: The world ain't perfect And neither am I Some people think that I fly But I ain't even in the sky I am down on ground floor And am searching for the door To get me to the top To get me to the top floor Bridge: And you say I am perfect Oh say I am perfect Well I'll let you step in my shoe And let's see how you do Verse 2: I am Edger Alan Poe That poet whom you all know My life's a river that doesn't flow A plant that doesn't grow Once I start to ascend I descend And I have no way to defend I'm wandering towards the deep end And i can longer pretend That my life is going great And I Ain't having no trouble going on a date Because affluence is my fate I mean who doesn't want a famous rapper I mean he's everything a girl wants But it's the name that taunts Cause I got nothing that a girl wants Chorus: The world ain't perfect And neither am I Some people think that I fly But I ain't even in the sky I am down on ground floor And am searching for the door To get me to the top To get me to the top floor Bridge: I thank everyone for hanging with me through all these years You guys always bring me to tears Losing you is what I fear But no matter what you'll always be my dear Verse 3: This moment I'll never forget Being at the top And the drop More heavy than a base drop But I'll always hang in there That is what I swear I will be an everlasting presence Like your favorite Christmas presents I am rocky in the ring I am the Red Sox in the spring And everyday I sing Cause My life's like a swing Chorus: The world ain't perfect And neither am I Some people think that I fly But I ain't even in the sky I am down on ground floor And am searching for the door To get me to the top To get me to the top floor
