I gotta keep myself in check sometimes
Cause I tend to dream real big sometimes
The fancy outfits and the sparkly awards
My name in lights, the people lined up at the doors
But I gotta remember to take it one step at a time
(Chorus)
Cause people seem to think that youll be happier,
Once you reach the top, youll have it all
But Im livin for right now cause what if tomorrow never comes
Im not waiting, Im not waiting for the confetti to fall.
I cant just sit around and wait for my life to start
I can make a difference, put a little happiness in someones heart
The fancy cars, the glitter and the fame
Its all nice but it wont be worth a thing
Love is bigger, so imma stand up for love, yeah
(Chorus)
If there was a rope stretching up to the sky
With all of my dreams at the very top, so high
I get so caught up in everything around me, movin quickly
I forget to cherish every single moment, I receive
I forget about the climb, I just wanna get there
Dont wanna wait in line, even though its so clear
That Im called to use patience on this journey that Im on
I know that Ill come out alive and itll only make me stronger
Oh oh, while everybodys focused on the hype
Oh oh, Oh oh
Ill be wonderin
Why we seem to think, youll be happier,
Once you reach the top, youll have it all
But Im livin for right now cause what if tomorrow never comes
Im not waiting, Im not waiting noo
(Chorus)
Im not waitin to be happy
No no no no no no
Ooh Yeah
