|
Only time will tell the truth |
|
I'm living proof of what could happen to a man |
|
When he decides to stand strong |
|
Some of them swim, some of them drown in their sorrows |
|
We're living to die and |
|
I'd die to live again tomorrow |
|
But let me tell you about the time |
|
I was just a teen |
|
Yas & Bobby you said it was just a dream |
|
My life's a circus |
|
I serve no purpose |
|
Now when you hear my name you get nervous |
|
You see it wasn't just a fantasy' |
|
Cause music is my life and |
|
I cherish it like family |
|
So now I'm chasing dreams, facing obstacles |
|
Racing against the clock like it was impossible |
|
Somebody's watching over me like a guardian angel |
|
I'm on the outside watching my life untangle |
|
Watching my life climb to new heights |
|
Still waiting for the day |
|
I see my name in lights |
|
ChorusTell 'em once tell 'em twice |
|
Only time will tell |
|
Some go up, some go down and some never fell |
|
Win or lose make a move, if you got the guts |
|
So why's everybody always screaming life sucks |
|
Verse 2Only if |
|
I knew what made you hopeless |
|
When time stands still |
|
I just sit back and focus |
|
I hold a mic on stage, |
|
I hold a pen to the page |
|
And then I write like |
|
I was trapped in a cage |
|
But wait a minute 'cause it's not the end |
|
I call few people enemies and fewer people friends |
|
And a lot of people like to think they were down from the start |
|
You played your games you broke my heart |
|
You broke my heart into pieces |
|
You showed me who the beast is |
|
Yeah I trust you about as far as my hand reaches |
|
Sticking to me like leaches and holding me tight |
|
I went from deep sleep to sleepless nights |
|
I can't take it, |
|
I got to make it my passion |
|
Dedicated to all the ones who were laughing |
|
Take these words home and think it through' |
|
Cause the next song |
|
I write might be about you |
|
Chorus (3X) |
|
Only time will tell why people try and drag you down |
|
They never make a noise and they never make a sound |
|
Only time will tell if these people really want you |
|
Maybe one day it'll come back to haunt you |
|
Only time will tell what's the price for being famous |
|
Some die with a name, some die nameless |
|
Only time will tell when you make a mistake |
|
Hold on to your life before it's too late |
|
Chorus (2X) |
