Where are you now Why did you go Give me a reason for leaving A reason your heart turned to stone Now it's so cold You saw me standing with tears in my eyes and then you turned out the lights
Dear Matt I know we've never really met each other But you've helped me out so much I felt I had to write this letter You might not know it when your making your beats But every lyric and syllable's like you're speaking to me Cause where I'm from they don't encourage a kid with a dream And every time I have an idea that I believe in It gets stomped or squashed and then I feel lost Like it wanna go dig a hole feeling so low Don't get me wrong, I believe but get real Matt Sometimes it's difficult to achieve when people don't believe back I'm not complaining but it's hard to go after my goals Cause the people I need most just leave they're cold My teacher told me that I'll never amount to anything But I wrote a chorus for you to sing I know it's probably not good enough Not even close But it's how I feel most so it goes
Where are you now Why did you go Give me a reason for leaving A reason your heart turned to stone Now it's so cold You saw me standing with tears in my eyes and then you turned out the lights
Lights you turned out the lights Lights why'd you turn out the lights
Everyday brings a new struggle In every situation is a moment where a choice can bring new trouble Sometimes I feel like I'm gonna bust like a bubble Here's what I've been through, now let me inspire you I hope you never have to feel what it's like, to feel lost The cost of not a friend in site Despite your best efforts you can't fight back When you love someone but they don't love you back Matt Remember us in your lyrics when you write that The kids that don't have it all within an arms grasp Can we dream too? Or is it fantasy?
I need to place where I fit in, in the family So I'mma choose to believe despite all of these words that sting All of the hurtful things With these few words I sing Just keep it real on the mic B And you've got a fan for life
Where are you now Why did you go Give me a reason for leaving A reason your heart turned to stone Now it's so cold You saw me standing with tears in my eyes and then you turned out the lights
Lights you turned out the lights Lights why'd you turn out the lights
We at the point of no return There ain't no coming back When it comes to love you never know how to react Gotta keep your head up Can't live in the past I know you feel bad but it goes in a flash
