lyrics

maybe someday the rain is replaced by the sun
maybe someday this could turn into something real

alright so it's tough, it's weird to always talk about
what I want, what my life should be like when it's not
I'm working, I'm struggling, but still do I put on that smile
maybe it's a fake, who knows, maybe it's a lake in a mile
that pours out of my eyes as I cry and pass by
that same routine that you just have to hate after a while
looking, thinking, acting and being like you, what you say is true
I'm actually in the middle of the whole pile
try to convince myself to get back up on my feet
you gotta do better than that to bring me down, no retreat
though now, mumbling to myself, maybe I should quit
I don't fit, the road I should hit, but what if (what if)

maybe someday the rain is replaced by the sun
maybe someday this could turn into something real

maybe I was wrong in the first place to be so selfish
and think Imma get what I want by making just a wish
but that's not on the menu today, just a cold dish
but ain't today the keyword, in this sentence I made
but wait, maybe I'm too optimistic again this time, though let's face it
I'm not the one who's living off the public's dime, I will chase it
I'm finally taking back what was already mine, I won't taste it
I'll own it, respected and disputed, all over the place
there's just the one face to see when you get out of the haze
have to turn it down now, otherwise I'm getting my hopes up
which I'm not, or I shouldn't at least I'm not fucked up
I'm totally aware of my surroundings and all
let's stop it all, I gotta go, to work, to pretend, to fall

oh maybe I will let go to become what life intended
oh maybe I will let go to become what life intended
oh maybe I will let go to become what life intended for me
