[Verse 1]
You're too young, boy
Your tainted reputations far gone, boy
That's what they're all sayin', now I'm annoyed
I can't stay for conversation
So stay strong, boy
This won't last forever, it's bound to get better
And this stormy weather's got me annoyed
I can't change the situation
[Chorus]
I spent a lot of time tryna get it right
Thinkin' it over and over in my mind
I've dotted all my I's, checked 'em all twice
Throw 'em in the trash and I don't know why
It happens every time, I put my heart out on the line
I've wasted all these tears of mine
Wishin' on the stars at night
From the shadows, one day I'll shine
[Verse 2]
So wake up, boy, look into the mirror
I know it's unfamiliar, but your eyes are seein' clearer
And that little voice, it's just noise
That causes your frustrations
[Chorus]
I spent a lot of time tryna get it right
Thinkin' it over and over in my mind
I've dotted all my I's, checked 'em all twice
Throw 'em in the trash and I don't know why
It happens every time, I put my heart out on the line
I've wasted all these tears of mine
Wishin' on the stars at night
From the shadows, one day I'll shine, yeah
One day I'll shine
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
I've wasted all these tears of mine
Wishin' on the stars at night
From the shadows, one day I'll shine
Hm, one day I'll shine
