We talk about the world like it owes us everything
And power is the money that we can't seem to gain
It's 4 in the morning, I will close my eyes
And dream about a life that is perfect for myself
An average apartment with a trophy on the shelf
Saying: "This man made it, this man survived"
Call it hopeless
Say what you want to
I don't need to stray from truth
'Cause my mind has changed after all this disaster
Money and fame would leave me in the same place
Once we are struck to the heart
Never after will we be the same again
But we'll try harder
You hit me in the gut, then you tell me to breathe
You ask me what happened to my personality
I'm going through some shit that I'd rather not tell
I can't say in person, so I say it in the songs
I've used up my lifelines that carried me along
I'm yawning in the mic and crying like a teen
Call it selfish
Say what you have to
I don't need to stray from truth
'Cause my mind has changed after all this disaster
Money and fame would leave me in the same place
Once we are struck to the heart
Never after will we be the same again
But we'll try harder
I keep on walking away
Short of breathe
A little more of this temptation rests
I'm trying hard to be a better man
Let's have a talk about life, where we're at
It won't turn out how we wanted
We've taken love for granted
'Cause my mind has changed after all this disaster
Money and fame would leave me in the same place
Once we are struck to the heart
Never after will we be the same again
