Just like my father told me Everything is yours if you just stay in line Always play it cool and always be on time But nothing ever feels like I could make it make it mine Just like my mama told me Nothing is forever so just make it count You could have it all but what does that amount Living for the moment what it's all about Just like my body told me Chase that high because you're feeling down Get back up before you hit the ground This is the only time I must make it count But I don't feel like I'm being true to me If this my last breath then they'll hear what I sing Maybe I'm wasting time Maybe I'm lost at sea Maybe I'm caught inside these waves and between feeling free Maybe I haven't changed Or maybe I've lost my faith Or maybe I'll burn out first and watch my body up in flames Just like my father showed me Everything you want could be inside your grip You could have the world but never feel a thing But my hold on reality is gonna slip Just like my mama showed me Don't give up if you're not giving in Love isn't weighted on how much they will sin You wanna be better then you must search within As long as I am being true to me Maybe I'm wasting time Maybe I'm lost at sea Maybe I'm caught inside these waves and between feeling free Maybe I haven't changed Or maybe I've lost my faith Or maybe I'll burn out first and watch my body up in flames This is the life that I chose so I choose to be everything you thought that you were too good to be Love me or hate me doesn't change a single thing, I'm being true to myself just by doing me The light is always brightest right before the dark Sometimes it will end before it even starts But I'm caught in the color of my vivid art This is the life that I chose so I choose to be everything you thought that you were too good to be Love me or hate me doesn't change a single thing, I'm being true to myself just by doing me But I can't give up because I'm too close This is the only thing that I want most I'm questioning all of my faith As I'm feeling myself go insane But I can't give up because I'm too close This is the only thing that I want most I'm watching the time slip away... As I'm getting caught in these waves... As long as I am being true to me If this is my last breath then they'll hear what I sing Maybe I'm wasting time Maybe I'm lost at sea Maybe I'm caught inside these waves and between feeling free Maybe I haven't changed Or maybe I've lost my faith Or maybe I'll burn out first and watch my body up in flames
