Текст песни:

Boys and girls want to hear a true story?
Saturday night was at this real wild party
They had the liquor overflowing the cup
About five, six strippers trying to work for a buck
And I took one girl outside with me Her name was Loni, she went to junior high with me And said why you up in there dancing for cash?
I guess a whole lot has changed since I seen you last
She said…
1 What would you do if your son was at home
Crying all alone on the bedroom floor
Cause he’s hungry
And the only way to feed him is to Sleep with a man for a little bit of money
And his daddy’s gone
Somewhere smoking rock now
In and out of lock down
I ain’t got a job now
So for you this is just a good time
But for me this is what I call life, mmm
Girl you ain’t the only one with a baby
That’s no excuse to be living all crazy
Then she looked me right square in the eye
And said, «Everyday I wake up hoping to die.»
She said, nigga I know about pain cause
Me and my sister ran away so my daddy couldn’t rape us Before I was a teenager
I done been through more shit you can’t even relate to Oh then she said
(What would you do?)
Get up on my feet and let go of every excuse
(What would you do?)
Cause I wouldn’t want my baby to go through what I went through
(What would you do?)
Get up on my feet and stop making up tired excuses
(What would you do?)
Girl I know if my mother could do it baby you can do it Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

  • It's a quarter past midnight As we cut through the city Yeah yeah yeah The streets are getting restless Good times bad decisions Yeah yeah yeah It's a quarter past midnight And the sirens are mending some hearts But we're the losers on the back seats Singing "Love will tear us apart" It's a quarter past midnight Still we're fighting tomorrow It's a quarter past midnight But we're just getting going We keep on running Running through a red light Like we're trying to burn the night away Away oh away This is my favorite part oh Help me piece it all together darling Before it falls apart oh Help me piece it all together It's a quarter past midnight And the speakers are blowing Yeah yeah, we want the bodies on the billboards Not the lives underneath them Yeah yeah yeah, and now we're crawling up the walls again And it's a quarter past the world And you said we'd leave this place in dust And fall from heaven straight through hell We never know what we have We never knew what we had We keep on running Running through a red light Like we're trying to burn the night away Away oh away Why are we always chasing after something Like we trying to throw our lives away Away oh away This is my favorite part oh Help me piece it all together darling Before it falls apart oh Help me piece it all together I can't remember, I can't remember I can't remember, I can't remember It's a quarter past midnight And the secrets are flowing Our lips are getting looser I don't know what I'm saying We never knew what we had I never know what I've had We keep on running Running through a red light Like we're trying to burn the night away Away oh away Why are we always chasing after something Like we trying to throw our lives away Away oh away This is my favorite part so Help me piece it all together darling Before it falls apart Help me piece it all together
  • [Verse 1] You go sleep with the fishes There’s no room for you here There’s no room for you here Wrap your teeth around the pavement 'Cause your body’s a message Send my regards to hell [Chorus 1] Fall upon your knees, sing: "This is my body and soul here" Crawl and beg and plead, sing: "You’ve got the power to control" Don’t pin it all on me Don’t pin it all on me! [Verse 2] You’ve been granted three wishes Say goodbye to your mother, your father, your son I can hear your pulse racing from here Sitting next to this gun beats your heart in your mouth [Chorus 1] Fall upon your knees, sing: "This is my body and soul here" Crawl and beg and plead, sing: "You’ve got the power to control" Don’t pin it all on me Don’t pin it all on me! [Bridge] Blame, blame, blame (I got you, I got you) Blame, blame, blame (I got you, I got you) Blame, blame, blame (I got you, I got you) Blame, blame, blame (I got you, I got you) [Chorus 2] Fall upon your knees, sing: "This is my body and soul here" Crawl and beg and plead, sing: "You’ve got the power to control here This is my body and this is my soul!” Fall upon your knees, sing: “This is my body and soul Don’t pin it all on me Don’t pin it all on me!" [Outro] Don’t pin it all on me Don’t pin it all on me
  • Lately, I’ve been, I’ve been thinking I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier When the morning comes When we see what we’ve become In the cold light of day we’re a flame in the wind Not the fire that we’ve begun Every argument, every word we can’t take back ‘Cause with the all that has happened I think that we both know the way that the story ends Then only for a minute I want to change my mind ‘Cause this just don’t feel right to me I want to raise your spirits I want to see you smile but Know that means I’ll have to leave Know that means I’ll have to leave Lately, I’ve been, I’ve been thinking I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier When the evening falls And I’m left there with my thoughts And the image of you being with someone else Well, that’s eating me up inside But we run our course, we pretended we’re okay Now if we jump together at least we can swim Far away from the wreck we made Then only for a minute I want to change my mind ‘Cause this just don’t feel right to me I want to raise your spirits I want to see you smile but Know that means I’ll have to leave Know that means I’ll have to leave Lately, I’ve been, I’ve been thinking I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier So I’ll go, I’ll go I will go, go, go So I’ll go, I’ll go I will go, go, go Lately, I’ve been, I’ve been thinking I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier Even though I might not like this I think that you’ll be happier, I want you to be happier Then only for a minute I want to change my mind ‘Cause this just don’t feel right to me I want to raise your spirits I want to see you smile but Know that means I’ll have to leave Know that means I’ll have to leave Lately, I’ve been, I’ve been thinking I want you to be happier, I want you to be happier So I’ll go, I’ll go I will go, go, go
  • I got two open eyes, now I'm on the other side Happy in my second life, headset on I could be anything, let me be your Midas king Think of all the joy I'd bring, touching everything I've been tryna catch a fever dream In the days you give me deep blue sea We ain't nothing, but the things we've seen Plug me in So give me the future, it's golden and bright Catch a fever dream in the flash of the lights Now nothing is certain, and the song isn't done The new melodies rise up with the sun Give me the future Suddenly found my feet, dreaming of electric sheep Just a little space to breathe, and enjoy the dream I've been tryna catch a fever dream In the days you give me deep blue sea We ain't nothing, but the things we've seen Plug me in So give me the future, it's golden and bright Catch a fever dream in the flash of the lights Now nothing is certain, and the song isn't done The new melodies rise up with the sun Give me the future I tasted endless love that takes control Endless love and I'm wanting more (So give me the future) I tasted endless love that takes control Endless love and I'm wanting more (Just give me the future) Why would we leave, why would we leave? Miles and miles of fake beauty It's good for you, it's good for me Why would we leave, why would we leave? So give me the future, it's golden and bright Catch a fever dream in the flash of the lights Now nothing is certain, and the song isn't done The new melodies rise up with the sun I tasted endless love that takes control Endless love and I'm wanting more (So give me the future) I tasted endless love that takes control Endless love and I wanted more (Just give me the future) Just give me a dream and a flash of the lights
  • Had a great seven year white knuckle ride Killing time flying high as I held on tight to you, to you Did I blow my mind on the wild side Singing hallelujah to 'em every night with you, with you? And I'm not gonna lie, say I've been alright 'Cause it feels like I've been living upside down What can I say? I'm survivin' Crawling out these sheets to see another day What can I say? I'm survivin' And I'm gonna be fine, I'm gonna be fine, I think I'll be fine Ooh, yeah Ba-da-da-da-da-da Ba-da-da-da-da-da Ooh, yeah Ba-da-da-da-da-da Ba-da-da-da-da-da Like a thunder cloud in November rain Is the black dog out running wild again for you, for you? Tryna stream my way to a better life But I daydream crash like Vanilla Sky, do you? Do you? And I'm not gonna lie, say I've been alright 'Cause it feels like I've been living upside down What can I say? I'm survivin' Crawling out these sheets to see another day What can I say? I'm survivin' And I'm gonna be fine, I'm gonna be fine, I think I'll be fine Ooh, yeah Ba-da-da-da-da-da Ba-da-da-da-da-da Ooh, yeah Ba-da-da-da-da-da Ba-da-da-da-da-da So what can I say? I'm survivin' Just crawling out these sheets to see another day Oh what can I say? I'm survivin' And I'm gonna be fine, I'm gonna be fine, I think I'll be fine
