Songtext zu 'Confetti' von Tori Kelly

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 line up at the doors
But I gotta remember to take it one step at a time

'Cause people seem to think
That you'll be happier
Once you reach the top
You'll have it all
But I'm livin' for right now
'Cause what if tomorrow never comes
I'm not waitin' I'm not waitin'
For the confetti to fall

I can't just sit around and wait for my life to start
I can make a difference put a little happiness in someone's heart
The fancy cars the glitter and the fame
It's all nice but it won't be worth a thing
Love is bigger so I'm a stand up for love

People seem to think
That you'll be happier
Once you reach the top
You'll have it all
But I'm livin' for right now
'Cause what if tomorrow never comes
I'm not waitin' I'm not waitin'
For the confetti to fall

Fall
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 moving quickly
I forget to cherish every single moment I receive
I forget about the climb I just wanna get there
Don't wanna wait in line even though it's so clear
That I'm called to use patience on this journey that I'm on
I know that I'll come out alive and it'll only make me stronger
While everybody's focused on the hype
I'll be wonderin' why

We seem to think
You'll be happier
Once you reach the top
You'll have it all
I'm livin' for right now
'Cause what if tomorrow never comes
I'm not waitin' I'm not waitin'

People seem to think
You'll be happier
Once you reach the top
You'll have it all
But I'm livin' for right now
'Cause what if tomorrow never comes
I'm not waitin' no I'm not waitin'
For the confetti to fall
I'm not waitin' to be happy
