[Intro]
They call me a fool, but they don’t see the cost,
Chasing illusions, that’s what’s really lost.
Money on a mirage, it’s all just a game,
The high’s not worth the pain, it’s all just the same.
[Verse 1]
I see the glimmers in the lights,
But they fade in the dark, can’t escape the fights.
You think you’re flying high, but you’re really just low,
Swallowed by the lies and the shadows that grow.
[Pre-Chorus]
Do your homework, it’s no secret,
Open your eyes, don't let them keep it.
Every hit you take, you're losing your grip,
What’s the point of paying when you’re destined to slip?
[Chorus]
Stop spending your life on a fleeting high,
When the price you pay is a tear in the sky.
Don’t sell your soul for that moment of bliss,
There’s a better way, it’s all wrapped in this.
[Verse 2]
I see the wreckage, I feel the pain,
Building empires just to watch them wane.
Chasing smoke, breathing ash,
What’s left of love when the good times crash?
[Pre-Chorus]
Rewind your mind, put the fear on mute,
Freedom is waiting, it’s time to compute.
Every choice you make, lay it out on the line,
Is this really living, or just killing this time?
[Chorus]
Stop spending your life on a fleeting high,
When the price you pay is a tear in the sky.
Don’t sell your soul for that moment of bliss,
There’s a better way, it’s all wrapped in this.
[Bridge]
Wake up, wake up, there’s a world out there,
Beauty in the chaos, learn to breathe the air.
Leave the demons behind, let the light break through,
It’s a brand new start, the rest is up to you.
[Outro]
Call me what ya want, I won’t play the fool,
This life is precious, let’s rewrite the rule.
Invest in the moments that make your heart sing,
Embrace the real world, let it take you under its wing.
