I've been wasting time all my life waiting for someone to set me free But I think this time I found my reason to be me I'm talkin orange skies Riding with you Late at night I'm talking red eyes Yeah we be Flying so high I'm talking new kicks And a fix for '76 I'm talking lo fi Yeah we be Flying so high Yeah it's been a few months since I've had my last few reasons to cry And it hasn't been fun finding myself in this life But as the days are getting short And my heart is freed from yours I start to see the light Though I don't want to be back in the dark I see why it's gotten me this far I've been wasting time all my life waiting for someone to set me free But I think this time I found my reason to be me I'm talkin "oo aah" Shiny like a New guitar I'm talkin movies That we've never seen I'm talkin De La And a little Bit of Nas I'm talking midnight And we go to the sunrise If this a game baby I don't mind playin' baby I hope you understand I'd be a pawn in your plan Just to be in your hands I'm aware of the fact Good things come to an end I'm aware of the fact That it all just depends But between me and you I find it hard to pretend Even more nowadays Than I did back then I'm talking how many ways Could we stay like friends I've dealt too many times With my feelings entrenched I wrote too many lines Saying it is what it is I know labels ain't you But I need this verified Only once (one) Okay maybe twice (two) Cause I'm on cloud 9 And I ain't telling no lies You hear the truth in my lines Nothing I say would deny But how true can I feel Until you say that you mine I mean how true can I feel Until you say that you mine I've been wasting time all my life waiting for someone to set me free But I think this time I found my reason to be me
