​dreams of california

[Chorus]
I said, "How does it feel to be the only one that's lost?"
In this big old world, this world that's full of scars
Told my mama, "I think I'ma make it far"
She said, "Go ahead, I know that you a star"
Dreams of California, might fly out tomorrow
Everywhere I go, I know that they know who we are
And how am I gon' make it if I work a nine-to-five?
I said, "Baby I'm gon' love you, up until the day I die"

[Verse 1]
I said, "Baby, I'm gon' love you up until the day I rest"
And even to this day, I sit here, wishing you the best
I put my faith in God 'cause I know my life is a test
This world is so damn cold, we sit here sniffin' our regrets
I started up a campfire just to light my cigarette
And the best thing I can do right now is drink away my stress
Playing with me feelings, she's with me until the next
But you know that I'm gon' stick around and keep this shit intact

[Verse 2]
But she don't want no part in that, so I get no reply
And even if she don't wanna respond, I say goodnight
Stuck inside the darkness, then you brought me to the light
Glued myself to my old ways, but then you guide me to whats right
I got a feeling that this girl the one for me
I got a feeling that one day she'll come to me
I got a feeling that this girl the one for me
I got a feeling that one day she'll come to me

[Bridge]
You have no idea how much I need you
I'm tryna keep you, I'm tryna free you
From all of this pain
From all of these chains
No, I can't rearrange, I can't go my seperate ways
She fell in love with my eyes
How did I ever disguise my slow downfall from my rise?
I fill my cup with more ice, and hope I feel the demise
I hope I'm runnin besides you for the rest of my life
Otherwise it feel like knives inside my chest
And I'm sorry that I put you through this stress
Yeah, my life is feeling like a game of chess
I'm not afraid to spill my feelings, I confess
I'm not afraid to spill my feelings

[Chorus]
I said, "How does it feel to be the only one that's lost?"
In this big old world, this world that's full of scars
Told my mama, "I think I'ma make it far"
She said, "Go ahead, I know that you a star"
Dreams of California, might fly out tomorrow
Everywhere I go, I know that they know who we are
And how am I gon' make it if I work a nine-to-five?
I said, "Baby I'm gon' love you, up until the day I die"
