Lyrics

It's a paradise and it calls my name
But I can't keep taking holidays

It's a paradox seeking paradise
Thought I'd try my luck and roll it up like a pair of dice
Took a break from being present in the presence of a lesson
I ain't trying to hear the message, I escape the pain with pleasure, uh
Takin' holidays, eatin' bolongese, wearin' Prada shades
Sippin' Chardonnay, check the Cartier watch
Watch, everything in gold chains
Melt down everything in gold flames
Idols living in my heart, what's wrong with me?
All I need is time and time's controlling me
Play the game so long, I know it's no winning
Left the holiday to get some soul healing
Feel like I deserve to have Miami vices
But every fleeting pleasure come with sacrifices
This is not a liberty, it's license
Every holiday got hidden prices, yikes

Hold my heart, hold my face
I spent too long on this vacation
I flew too high, I love the escape
But I think it's time to land this plane
No more fireworks, no more chase
I can't keep that type of pace
It's a paradise and it calls my name
But I can't keep taking holidays
I can't keep taking holidays, oh
It's a paradise and it calls my name
But I can't keep taking holidays

Life and time are precious, so I live it slowly
Let go of the purp like it's a new parolee
Engine going out, I was losing my drive
Truth is all around, but I'm choosing a lie
Who would've thought I'd be trusted to be a caretaker?
On the beach, getting twisted without a hair braider
Laugh now, prepare later, rare flavor, fare saver
Seeking vanity, it's empty, I'm an air chaser
If I had to say it honestly
I was too afraid to face my demons 'cause I wanted what they promised me
A hand full of lies about resting
Don't look at the wreckage, just drink away your depression
You could prolly kill your anxiety with possessions
Wrestle for a second before I ignore the message
I don't want the lesson they're tryna teach
They offer you the world, best believe it don't come with peace, capiche?

Hold my heart, hold my face
I spent too long on this vacation
I flew too high, I love the escape
But I think it's time to land this plane
No more fireworks, no more chase
I can't keep that type of pace
It's a paradise and it calls my name
But I can't keep taking
I can't keep taking
I can't keep taking
Holidays
Oh, I can't keep taking holidays, oh
It's a paradise and it calls my name
But I can't keep taking holidays
