[Intro]
F                 F
   Yesterday when we were getting high
           Em                Em
You were invited, you woulda liked it
                         F
I, I, I know you all too well
                     F
I said that we could kiss the past goodbye
                  Em                       Em
But you weren't excited, there's no way to fight it
You can stay but shawty here I go
[Verse 1]
F
   Should I spend a weekend in Vegas?
    F
I'm living inside a moment, not taking pictures to save it
        Em
I mean, how could I forget? My memory's never faded
  Em
I can't relate to these haters, my enemies never made it
  F
I am still here with who I started with
F
   The game needed life, I put my heart in it
Em
   I blew myself up, I'm on some martyr shit
Em
   Carry the weight for my city like a cargo ship
F
   I'm 23 with a money tree
F
   Growing more too, I just planted a hundred seeds
Em
   It's ironic cause my mother was a florist
           Em
And that's how she met my pops and now my garden is enormous
      F
"It's happening, Penny Lane, just like you said!"
  F
I avoided the coke game and went with Sprite instead
   Em
Uh-huh, that's word to the millions that they putting up
Em
   I'm trying to do better than good enough
[Hook]
           F
What am I afraid of?
                                       F
This is supposed to be what dreams are made of
                                    Em
But people I don't have the time to hang with
                              Em
Always look at me and say the same shit
                                    F              F
They say "You promised me you would never change"
                           Em             Em
"You promised me you would never change"
[Verse 2]
     F
Am I wrong for making light of my situation? Clap on?
     F
When 40 got some shit for me to snap on
             Em
Now that I'm on, I don't really want to worry about getting back on
Em
I'm just trying to stay on, get my fucking buffet on
  F
I heard they just moved my grandmother to a nursing home
         F
And I be acting like I don't know how to work a phone
Em
   But hit "redial", you'll see that I just called
     Em
Some chick I met at the mall that I barely know at all and
F
   Plus this woman that I messed with unprotected
F
Texted saying she wished she would have kept it
                 Em
The one that I'm laying next to just looked over and read it
                         Em
Man, I couldn't tell you where the fuck my head is
I'm holding on by a thread
              F
It's like I'm high right now, the guy right now
    F
And you could tell by looking in my eyes right now
     Em
That nothing really comes as a surprise right now
      Em
Cause we just having the time of our lives right now
[Hook]
           F
What am I afraid of?
                                       F
This is supposed to be what dreams are made of
                                    Em
But people I don't have the time to hang with
                              Em
Always look at me and say the same shit
                                    F              F
They say "You promised me you would never change"
                           Em             Em
"You promised me you would never change"
[Verse 3]
F
   I live by some advice this girl Lissa told me
F
   The other day Lissa told me that she missed the old me
Em
   Which made me question when I went missing
Em
   And when I started treating my friends different
F
   Maybe it was the fast paced switch up
       F
Or the two guns in my face during the stick up
              Em
Maybe cause a girl I thought I trusted was who set the whole shit up
       Em                                                         F
But in fact I haven't seen them since they locked Big Rich up - I know
But same time I'm quick to forget
F
   I'm 'bout to roll me up a blunt with my list of regrets
Em
   Burn it all, burn it all, I'm starting it fresh
Em
   Cause half the time I got it right I probably guessed
F
   Did I just trade free time for camera time?
F
   Will I blow all of this money baby, hammer time?
Em
   Yeah, I just need some closure
Em                                C
Ain't no turning back for me, I'm in it 'til it's over
[Outro]
