I could be a rich man
Living on the west coast
But that ain't me
Seventeen to twenty-three
I was stealing everything
Taking anything I need
And then the truth it brings me
Down
Down on my knees
I'm begging you please, this life ain't for me
In time the truth, it brings me down
It brings me down
Living on the east coast
[?] stars
Not forgetting who I was
This is why I hate them
Dumber than I thought I was
Time keep bringing me down
Wishing I could turn it around
And then the truth it brings me
Down
Down on my knees
I'm begging you please, this life ain't for me
In time the truth, it brings me down
It brings me down
I'll tell you I never thought I could be a goddamn thing
But now I feel so real
Down
Down on my knees
I'm begging you begging I'm begging please
This life ain't for me
And it brings me down
'Cause I learned to steal
When you learned to breathe
'Cause life it ain't free
And it brings me down
Down
The future is real
So choose who to be
'Cause life it ain't free
In time, the truth will bring you down
Down on your knees
You're begging them please
This life ain't for me
In time, the truth it brings you down
It brings you down
Oh it can [?]
I'll tell you
You never knew you could be everything
So now, please feel more real
