Live the American dream with Billboards picturing me

My name on Hollywood Boulevard

Want it so much

LA state of mind

I'm never satisfied 'cause I want number one

Doesn't everyone?

Want it so much much

So I was up late the other night

Comparing myself to others' lives

Scrolling up and down my phone

What does she have that I don't?

My dreams so big they're supersized

I chase them like I chase the light

I could live a simple life

But that's the thing with the ambition

Want it so much

Everything's a competition

So out of touch

Yeah it got me a lot but that's not good enough

I wanna be lo-lo-loved

I live and learn the hard way

Want it so much

Yeah it's a chronic heartbreak

So out of touch

No it never stops I wanna be your star

I wanna be lo-lo-loved

Lo-loved

Loved

Lo-o-oved

Raise on validation

Consumed by aspiration

Numbers meaning more than words

But what's it worth?

Can't help how I feel it's human nature

Millions of people listening

Soul-driven couldn't live in it

Didn't appreciate it then

Wish I could go back again

My dreams so big they're supersized

I chase them like I chase the light

I could live a simple life

But that's the thing with the ambition

Want it so much

Everything's a competition

So out of touch

Yeah it got me a lot but that's not good enough

I wanna be lo-lo-loved

I live and learn the hard way

Want it so much

Yeah it's a chronic heartbreak

So out of touch

No it never stops I wanna be your star

I wanna be lo-lo-loved

See I've been doing this long enough to be scarred

From what I've learned before

But that doesn't mean I wanna stop wanting more and more

I try to push it away but at the end of the day

It's the world to me

I'll keep breaking my heart if I can be your star

If I can be lo-lo-loved

That's the thing with the ambition

Want it so much

Everything's a competition

So out of touch

Yeah it got me a lot but that's not good enough

I wanna be lo-lo-loved

I wanna be loved

I live and learn the hard way

Want it so much

Yeah it's a chronic heartbreak

So out of touch

No it never stops I wanna be your star

I wanna be lo-lo-loved

Lo-loved

Loved

Lo-o-oved
