[00:28.132] I was once told I could have the world
[00:32.084] It was mine to hold like a bag of pearls
[00:35.547] Who's gonna stop me on this endeavor?
[00:39.509] Live your life and seize the day; man, it's now or never!
[00:43.212] I guess the motto's "study hard to be a scholar."
[00:46.511] Better know I put in work cause I've earned every dollar
[00:50.017] I don't wanna be a coward who cripples under another man
[00:53.447] I merely wanna live unafraid, ever with the upper hand
[00:57.136] I imagine being a man of prominence -- relying only on myself
[01:00.728] My appetite for the comfy life requires me to acquire more wealth
[01:04.374] Sometimes, I admit that I spend more time trying to keep up with the Joneses
[01:07.756] I try to not compare my cots of tulips to their beds of roses
[01:11.588] But that's okay cause everything is great
[01:14.768] I remain the man on top; shall we pop some chardonnay?
[01:18.311] I still got all my money. I still got all my stuff
[01:21.984] But why's it still feel like it's not enough
[01:26.447] I was full speed on this road of gold
[01:30.024] All about me -- always on the go
[01:33.923] Lusting for the top of that totem pole
[01:37.362] But in light of eternity, I saw that
[01:40.317] (I was chasing nothing at all.) x8
[01:54.615] I was once told I could have the world
[01:58.840] It was mine to hold like a bag of pearls
[02:02.493] Who's gonna stop me on this endeavor?
[02:06.124] Live your life and seize the day; man, it's now or never!
[02:10.043] I'm young and wild; party 'til my last breath
[02:13.105] We only got one chance to live, why not live on the ledge?
[02:16.506] Forget what people say; do what you think is right
[02:20.232] If truth is relative then you don't gotta fret it twice
[02:23.644] You make your own rules, commandments are just old rules
[02:27.367] Yo, Why'd I gotta listen to that old dude? Be moral -- that's old news
[02:30.691] I'm on that new new; gotta check up on my youtube
[02:34.342] I don't got a bit of time to waste on you tryna make attractive an old tune
[02:37.904] But that's okay cause everything is great
[02:41.432] I remain the man on top; shall we pop some chardonnay?
[02:44.882] I still got all my money. I'm still having my fun
[02:48.883] But why's it still feel like it's not enough
[02:53.557] I was full speed on this road of gold
[02:56.988] All about me -- always on the go
[03:00.564] Lusting for the top of that totem pole
[03:03.802] But in light of eternity, I saw that
[03:06.881] (I was chasing nothing at all.) x8
[03:21.096] My greatest lie that the world taught to me
[03:25.829] Is that my freedom is who I can be
[03:29.242] Who then am I but a spark in eternity?
[03:35.849] I'll run in light of the sovereign throne
[03:40.236] I'll run for Glory who calls me His own
[03:43.786] I will abandon these broken dreams
[03:48.211] For You are everything
[03:51.169] I was full speed on this road of gold
[03:54.608] All about me -- always on the go
[03:58.114] Lusting for the top of that totem pole
[04:01.779] But in light of eternity, I saw that
[04:04.569] (I was chasing nothing at all.) x8
