Fade

In the dead of the night when I'm away

Do you think about tomorrow or yesterday

When it's forgotten you'll wish I stayed

I'm tryna be right this is my life I can't wait

So watch us fade

You said 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 warned you well in advance

Still you decide to try your shot at changin faces

I'll tell you right now lady that you know we're going places

It's a wild ride so please girl hold on

Take my hand now girl and we can't go wrong

Hope you realize chasing dreams ain't easy

They'll be times when you can't find but eed me

Too much of your life's planned

Let's just wing 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 away

Do you think about tomorrow or yesterday

When it's forgotten you'll wish I stayed

I'm tryna be right this is my life I can't wait

So watch us 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 finance I turn and say

Made it up its what her daddy does anyway

I feel bad how I am forced to lie

Sometimes your dreams need an alabi

Clearly that's an answer she likes to hear

She grabs my face and whispers something in my ear:

"you're gonna be a great man one day "

Yeah maybe I'll get mine someday

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 away

Do you think about tomorrow or yesterday

When it's forgotten you'll wish I stayed

I'm tryna be right this is my life I can't wait

So watch us fade

Thinkin where I was back when I wrote this

Now I know that you probably run around

And quote this focus

Maybe you could find yourself a lesson

Instead of feelin sorry for yourself and second guessin

The shoulda coulda wouldas

Is where you've gone wrong

You were prayin I'd fail

Now look what I'm on

Couldn't stay long cause I felt purpose

But back then I only felt worthless

Yeah I guess you kinda deserve this

In the dead of the night when I'm away

Do you think about tomorrow or yesterday

When it's forgotten you'll wish I stayed

I'm tryna be right this is my life I can't wait

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 wait so watch us fade

In the dead of the night

I told you girl that you could watch us fade

I'm tryna be right this is my life I can't wait

So watch us fade
