Songtext zu 'Skylines' von Ivan B

Man, this world, it'll change ya
Am I getting bitter from the life that I'm living?
Inside a mirror as a stranger
Looking at me funny like you want to vent
No money but I gotta spend
My time at a part-time job that I don't like
Spend money like its alright
Another bill coming over-night, car had a breakdown last night
World keeps spinning, right?
Who sleeps when your girl ain't sleeping right?
3:30Am in the dead of night
Got to work in three hours, what a sight
But you gotta get up, yeah, that's all you know
Counting every minute 'til you 'bouta blow
How you keep grinding? Keep it on the low
They ask how you feeling only on the phone
No one's gonna help you outta bed
No one's gonna tell ya how to be a better friend
One in the mirror got you to the end
But I'm full of doubts and regrets, all again
I tell you that I'm fine, but you say I'm not the same
Didn't like who I was, you don't like what I became
Talking to the mirror, who else are you gonna blame?
You wanted recognition, now you want it all to change?
Hoodies up, get the world out my face
The more that I see, the more I know I'm out of place
Yeah you're getting older, but you never seen a change
Only thing you chased is a drink, then a toilet to the face, oh, man
Tell me who can really understand, when they tell you be yourself
But deliver certain plan, when they say you gotta grow up
Anytime you fail again
You won't win the lottery if you don't take the chance

I can touch the skyline, I can touch the skyline
I can touch the skyline, I can touch the skyline
The skyline
I can touch the skyline, I can touch the skyline
I can touch the skyline, I can touch the skyline

Feeling like we can make it out
Yeah, nobody says a thing when they see you 'bouta drown
Who cares if you ball 'til they see you with a crowd?
No one sees the work until they see you with a smile
Been on the scene, headphones on loud
If you got a dream, don't you ever look down?
Was lost for a minute, let me tell you what I found
If you want a handshake, don't expect a handout (handout)
Was lost for a minute, let me tell you what I found
If you want a handshake, don't expect a handout (handout)
(Do you feel it now? Do you feel it now?)
(Was lost for a minute, now tell me that you feel it now)
Feelings they don't understand
It's a feeling that you know you got
When you want something more from the life that you're living, you got to put a twist in the plot
Losing every season when you're waiting for the right year
Never hit the top if you don't put it in the top gear
Lately, I don't even want to look into mirror
Looking at myself is the only thing I fear

I can touch the skyline, I can touch the skyline
I can touch the skyline, I can touch the skyline
The skyline
I can touch the skyline, I can touch the skyline
I can touch the skyline, I can touch the skyline
