[Hook]
Lights will fade and shrivel
But you're made out of gold
Don't feel the wind blow
A star will shine forever
But only at night will you remember
[Verse 1]
Just a kid with a dream and a suitcase
Little bit of loose change under a shoelace
To get what you wanted how long would you wait?
If you felt like everything in life was way past its due date
Do you weigh out the pros and cons?
Do we think that the past we can grow beyond?
How do we feel right when we know it's wrong?
Damn I dunno guess that's why I wrote this song
Brains are processing all of our thoughts
You can't help but think somewhere you got thrown off the course
But it's not like you've never felt lonely before
You just heard boos and moans you didn't know they applaud
Well, that's the way it's perceived
Like here have a picture that they painted of me
Tainted for free, cause that's what we're made to believe
But to be great how great does one have to be
All of the setbacks, writing upset raps
Find where it's left at but never accept that
If I don't pull this off then I won't be calling shots
So I'm sitting in this room with a stomach full of knots
Take a deep breath take a deep breath
Take it back to them days when I'd take a heat check
Just a kid in gym bout to get his feet wet
Was never in the conversation of he's next
[Hook]
Lights will fade and shrivel
But you're made out of gold
Don't feel the wind blow
A star will shine forever
But only at night will you remember
[Verse 2]
You're supposed to be my rock when it's scissors
Not supposed to feel locked in a prison, I said
You're supposed to be my rock when it's scissors
Not supposed to feel locked in a prison, I said
I try and give ‘em variety
I give my heart and soul in its entirety
The only way that I deal with anxiety
Real life sh** is the stuff that inspires me
On that heartfelt sh**
You know cause my heart felt sh**
You know that I can't sell this
Cause my life is wreck that I can't sal-vage
Give me life give me d**h
Give me knowledge give me stress
Give me more give me less
Give me no give me yes
[Hook]
Lights will fade and shrivel
But you're made out of gold
Don't feel the wind blow
A star will shine forever
But only at night will you remember
[Verse 3]
Yesterday I got rid of that closed mind
I'm back now man its go time
Haven't felt like this since 09'
Told ‘em all to skate cause they didn't have no grind
King of diamonds in that 52 pick up
Gonna drive around the states in a 52 pick up
No faith nobody pick us
Now their hands in the air like an over due stick up
Keep it real with that sh**
They wanted me to sign a deal with that sh**
But that's not how we deal with that sh**
Started getting hungry had a meal with that sh**
Write a song how we feel about sh**
Not phased if you ain't feeling our sh**
Die tomorrow and not blink an eyelid
Cause I'm proud of sh** in life that I did
[Outro]
Is that Selfish or self centred
I'm at one with this world I have myself centred
Is that Selfish or self centred
I'm at one with this world I have myself centred
Cut me off at the knees no feet
Climbed to the top of the peak no feet
Running through 30 songs with no feat
