I am King - Thrive lyrics

Such potential wasted On feeling chasing nothing On a fleeting moment chasing nothing And we prefer a lie We prefer a lie Over the truth about you and I We beg for lies (We beg for lies, we beg for lies) We pay for lies And we want more (We've forgotten our colors) [Chorus:] Life can be cruel Time can be unforgiving But we hold out hope for the sake of another To be alive is to be conflicted To be alive You must find something worth fighting for Something worth fighting for Let's do art for art's sake And make melodies From music we've heard Somewhere in our dreams (Somewhere in our dreams) We the poor find riches in our dreams But are your dreams even your own? Have you forgotten to question everything? We have forgotten our place we have forgotten the taste of life All for a lie (We've forgotten our colors) [Chorus:] Life can be cruel Time can be unforgiving But we hold out hope for the sake of another To know life You must give yours away To be free You must let go and realize We're not here to stay Nothing lasts forever [X2:] Yesterday is gone Like tomorrow will be gone Like today will soon be gone Like you and I will soon be gone Yesterday is gone Wake up [Chorus:] Life can be cruel Time can be unforgiving But we hold out hope for the sake of another To know life You must give yours away To be free You must let go and realize We're not here to stay Nothing lasts forever Yesterday is gone
