[Verse 1] Daddy always dreamed he'd be a football coach But when I started singing he put that on hold Mamba made my first guitar Watched my tears when it got hard My brother somehow learned to raise himself
[Verse 2] We celebrated with a cake when I got signed I Flew to California, left my school behind And I ain't even overwhelmed I lost my friends and lost myself My boyfriend broke my heart and I got shelfed
[Chorus] I know I could have a different life More with less sacrifice Instead of singin' in this dive bar with an empty tip jar When I feel like givin' up 'cause my heart has had enough They're the reason I just can't let go I've been at it long enough to know This dream is not my own
[Verse 3] I hate to make the call when I need help with rent They don't ask no questions they just write the check Someday I'll pay 'em back Every dime they ever lent When my song hits Sirius XM
[Chorus] I know I could have a different life More with less sacrifice Instead of singin' in this dive bar with an empty tip jar When I feel like givin' up 'cause my heart has had enough You're the reason I just can't let go I've been at it long enough to know This dream is not my own
[Bridge] Someday I'll be on the road and you'll be out there watchin' Lookin' out into the crowd everybody will be singin' I can almost hear her sayin'
[Chorus 2] I don't have a different life This is worth the sacrifice Singin' in that dive bar It led to right where we are When I feel like givin' up 'cause my heart had had enough I'm so glad I didn't let this go I just took a little time to grow I'll be at this long enough to know This dream is not my ownTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
