City Lights (feat. Fabolous)

Sky lines and city lights are all I see as I'm wasting away

I need the city to remind me

There is life out there surviving

If you could see me, I would thank you,

'Cause I can't see anything you see through

I can't look straight and I can't believe

That the heaters not a burning just a bad dream

I could _ france, so you think I'm in

I could play it off, as life is playing out my sins

But I come on like a traitor fool

When all I really want is something real from you

Life keeps on moving even when my heart has stopped

This world keeps spinning

Even when your love has left my heart

Time's not affected when you decide to just be still

My thoughts are holding me against my will

Sky lines and city lights are all I see as I'm wasting away

You came into my life only to waste it away

Sky lines and city lights are all I see as I'm wasting away

I need the city to remind me

There is life out there surviving

Can you check me Can I rank you

Can we stir up an emotion I can break through

On a twelfth floor, in a dark room

There's no living when you look from my window view

Do it just as is, cause when no one plays

I win from millions so we live inside this crazy space

Do we want more or hate change

Am I wasting all my time wasting all my pain

Life keeps ya moving even when you wanna stop

This world keeps spinning even when you have left my heart

I hear the people move when nothing is moving

I see the city sleep but nothing is soothing me

Sky lines and city lights are all I see as I'm wasting away

You came into my life only to waste it away

Sky lines and city lights are all I see as I'm wasting away

I need the city to remind me

There is life out there surviving

Sometime I look at the sky line

And I don't know if it's the light that makes you… dark

I'm just happy to be real

In a world that's mad fake

That can't stop me, my life got bad breaks

Dreams come true, I finally convinced myself

And still wake up every morning and pinch myself

I'm a role model, she's centerfold models

And we both goes but in the rolce model

There's ups and downs to my understanding

To be flies, gonna be take-offs and landings

While you doing at least get to see the sky line

The good life contract, where do I sign

So when I shine, baby you shine

'Cause life's a bitch, that you can't two time

I'm so original somebody make copy

My son points at the tv and say papi

This reminds me there's people behind me

& God to guide me with you beside me

Chorus x2

Sky lines and city lights are all I see it's wasting away

You came into my life only to waste it away

Sky lines and city lights are all I see as I'm wasting away

I need the city to remind me

There is life out there surviving
