Fade

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 stay so I just fade

So 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 want you well in advance
Still you decide to trash out, change your face
I'll tell you right now lady that you know we're going places
So while we ride please girl hold on
Take my hand now girl and we can't go wrong
Hope you realize chancing dreams ain't easy
There are times when you can't fight believe me
Too much of your life's plan
Let's just swing 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 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 stay so I just 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 found an answer to return and say, made it up
That's what daddy does anyway
I feel bad how I was forced to lie, sometimes your dreams need an alibi
Clearly that's an answer she likes to hear
She grabs her and whispers something in my ear: "you're gonna be a great man one day"
Yeah maybe I'll get mine someday
I'd 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 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 stay so I just fade

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 stay so I just fade
