The limelight
Oh
Ooo
I took a drug out on the East Coast
They call it glory and it’s straight to the brain
Got my head up in the clout
Now I'm chasing a bitter taste, yeah
I've been trying to find a cheat code
A way to sell out and go straight to the bank
But then I get to questioning the second I see Your face
Is this Your wish, or just the Adam in me?
Is this Your gift or just the apple I see?
Hold it to my lips, wanna sink my teeth
But I know, I know, I know
I've been pushing and shoving to get the limelight
I've been rushing and running it off Your timeline
I don't know where I'm going now
But I know I should slow it down
Going dimmer and darker to get the limelight
Feel it getting harder to turn a blind eyе
Trading treasures for broken crowns
But I know, I know, I know
I know You got usе for me, truthfully
I just lose myself inside of my mind
I spin a fairytale of what could be mine
Plagiarizing Your writing, mmm
And I know You got plenty of enemies in Your image
Oh, and I'm terrified
That I'm becoming one 'cause I keep fighting Your timing
Trying to run with the darkness as I beg you to light it
So is this Your wish, or just the Adam in me?
Is this Your gift or just the apple I see?
Hold it to my lips, wanna sink my teeth
But I know, I know, I know
I've been pushing and shoving to get the limelight
I've been rushing and running it off Your timeline
I don't know where I'm going now
But I know I should slow it down
Going dimmer and darker to get the limelight
Feel it getting harder to turn a blind eye
Trading treasure for broken crowns
But I know, I know, I know
I know You got use for me, truthfully, I just lose myself and
I know You've got plenty of enemies, I don't wanna be one
Oh, I don't wanna be one
Oh, I don't wanna be one, oh yeah
I know You got use for me, truthfully, I just lose myself and
I know You've got plenty of enemies, I don't wanna be one
Oh, I don't wanna be one (I don't wanna be one)
I don't wanna be one, oh yeah
