NINETEEN 03:24
lyrics
I’m right at the edge of something great Right at the edge of all that’s meant for me, oh I’m right at the edge of something great Right at the edge of all that’s meant for me Oh, yeah I was only nineteen when I moved out of my parent’s house Twenty-fifteen, had to learn what life was all about I ain’t got no fam in town And I miss my friends But I know a chapter start where the last one ends Only nineteen, no, I didn’t take the easy route Chasing pipe dreams and the hope that they would all work out If I knew what I know now Would have been afraid Thank God for the ignorance allowing leaps of faith It’s funny how I’m scared to be something But way more terrified to be nothing Oh, don’t wake me up I don’t want to think that much It’s funny how I’m already someone But terrified I’ll end up a no one Oh, don’t wake me up I don’t want to think that much I’m right at the edge of something great Right at the edge of all that’s meant for me Oh, for me I’m right at the edge of something great Right at the edge of all that’s meant for me Oh, yeah I was only nineteen when I moved out of my parent’s house Twenty-sixteen, thought I knew what life was all about But all my beliefs suddenly began to fray Heart full of aching but I learned along the way Only nineteen, working with all of the artists That I played since I was fifteen, listen on repeat I was living out the dream I always dreamed While sleeping on the floor In the corner on a sleeping bag beside the door Yeah It’s funny how I’m scared to be something But way more terrified to be nothing Oh, don’t wake me up I don’t want to think that much It’s funny how I’m already someone But terrified I’ll end up with no one Oh, don’t wake me up I don’t want to think that much I’m right at the edge of something great Right at the edge of all that’s meant for me Oh, for me I’m right at the edge of something great Right at the edge of all that’s meant for me Mm, yeah So don’t wake me up when I’m chasing dreams Don’t slow me down ‘cause I’m gaining speed Yeah, I’m up there, I’m up there Yeah, I’m up there Swear I’m up so high Don’t wake me up when I’m chasing dreams Don’t hold me down ‘cause I’m taking leaps Yeah, I’m up there, I’m up there Yeah, I’m up there Swear I’m up so high

wasteland 03:21
lyrics
I spent ten thousand hours in a wasteland Pulling these strings just to make it You could see the callous on my left hand I ain’t never been one to fake it, no, no I do it for the love, not the payoff But I know one day it’ll pay off No more nine-to-life at a day job, no, no We’ve all heard that it’s lonely at the top But we’d all rather go and personally find out I don’t want to say “What if?” So I’ll spend One thousand nights in a wasteland won’t be wasted If my dreams start coming true These nights in a wasteland would be wasted If I didn’t see this through I’m singing that All I need is to be all I can be These nights in a wasteland won’t be wasted If my dreams start coming true I put all of my love into the music It turned me to a student It taught me if you put your time to it, you can do it Hope these million-hour nights, making beats up on my laptop Turn to million-mile flights, Italy back to Atlanta Oh, what a view I can see it now I been putting time in, tryna open these doors like Oh, what a view Yeah, I’m going for it I just need to know I maxed out Didn’t stop We’ve all heard that it’s lonely at the top We’d still rather go and personally find out I don’t want to say “What if?” So I spend One thousand nights in a wasteland won’t be wasted If my dreams start coming true These nights in a wasteland would be wasted If I didn’t see this through I’m singing that All I need is to be all I can be These nights in a wasteland won’t be wasted If my dreams start coming true These nights in a These nights in a wasteland, oh These nights in a These nights in a And all I want anymore Is to be better than before All I want anymore is to move forward, forward Yeah, all I want anymore Is to be better than before Yeah, all I want is the strength to spend One thousand nights in a wasteland won’t be wasted If my dreams start coming true These nights in a wasteland would be wasted If I didn’t see this through I’m singing that All I need is to be all I can be These nights in a wasteland won’t be wasted If my dreams start coming true These nights in a These nights in a wasteland, oh These nights in a These nights in a These nights in a wasteland, oh These nights in a These nights in a

young & jaded 02:23
lyrics
I don’t expect much anymore I had such high hopes and they crumbled to the floor I had my faith in so many things I got to try out all my dreams But it didn’t satisfy I left feeling hurt inside I don’t have the faith that I used to I’m just not as sold as I used to be I guess I’m young and jaded Look at me, Ma, I made it I used to pray for what I attained but everything's overrated Everything's falling down Crashing into the ground I guess I’m young and jaded Tend to feel isolated I used to laugh in bright yellow sun but too many colors faded What did they sell to me? I need some honesty

HEARTBREAK 02:49
lyrics
You say this ain’t working anymore But how can that be true With all that we’ve been through Things ain’t been the same since last December I guess I’m missing you So, what am I to do? Oh, oh Before it was tragic, it really was magic (remember) And somehow we lost it but, baby, we had it (for sure) And although we landed on different planets (remember) You stole my heart and I think you still have it, oh Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heartbreak Now I’m dealing with this Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heartbreak Now I’m dealing with this Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heartbreak Now I’m dealing with this Heart, heartbreak Heart, heartbreak I was afraid to make a move before With all that I’ve been through Was scared I’d fall for you Heartbreak from the past made me remember That love is hard to do So I acted the fool, oh I know it was tragic amidst all the magic (remember) And somehow I threw it away when we had it (for sure) But you remained patient for me when I vanished (remember) You stole my heart and I know you still have it, oh Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heartbreak Now I’m dealing with this Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heartbreak Now I’m dealing with this Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heartbreak Now I’m dealing with this Heart, heartbreak Heart, heartbreak So should I wait on your doorstep To prove I could love you better Or should I move on with regret Let the dust of us settle So should I wait on your doorstep To prove I could love you better Or should I move on with regret Let the dust of us settle Oh, now I’m dealing with this Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heartbreak Now I’m dealing with this Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heartbreak Now I’m dealing with this Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heartbreak Now I’m dealing with this Heart, heartbreak Heart, heartbreak Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heartbreak Now I’m dealing with this Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heartbreak Now I’m dealing with this Heart, heart, heart, heart, heart, heartbreak Now I’m dealing with this Heart, heartbreak Heart, heartbreak

we're all just growing up 03:37
lyrics
We’re all just growing up We’re all just growing up This ain’t what they said that it would be When I was a kid I wanted to be all grown up But now I just want to be innocent again The older I get I Realize it’s not so fun I wish I could go back to when I knew who I was Cuz the more that I learn The less that I know It seems I don’t know anything anymore We’re all just growing up Bills and coffee cups This ain’t what they said that it would be Never thought it’d be so tough Pills and breaking up This ain’t what they said that it would be It’s not what I imagined, is it And the way it happened isn’t How I would have planned it If it were up to me And it’s not ‘cause I’m behind every Monday It might be ‘cause I’m torn every Sunday I used to know everything (I don’t know anything) And I was talking to a friend, they felt the same way Can’t keep up with how my life is changing If I fall, who would care at all Is this just part of growing up Bills and coffee cups This ain’t what I thought that it would be I never thought it’d be so tough pills and breaking up this ain’t what they said that it would be We’re all just growing up (growing up) We’re all just growing up (growing up) This ain’t what they said that it would be We’re all just growing up (growing up) We’re all just growing up (growing up) This ain’t what they said that it would be, no, no We’re all just growing up (growing up) (growing up) We’re all just growing up (growing up) (growing up) This ain’t what they said that it would be We’re all just growing up We’re all just growing up This ain’t what they said that it would be
