LYRICS

I’ve been waiting for my time to come 
been going crazy and my mind is numb 
The light is fading cause we’re dying young 
this life’s a maze it feels like i am lost 
Just give it time 
and I’ll be fine 


This life is like a race that i don’t wanna run 
Everyday is like i live without the sun 
Some people telling me they knew what I’d become 
You will never understand where i am from 
when I look back there is so much that I’ve done 
To only end up where the journey had begun 
A celebration but it ain’t about the fun
I’m Breaking cycles while I’m holding on a grudge 
been feeling lost I don’t know who to trust 
Because I can’t help overthink and I feel stuck  
Now you wonder why I’m calling up the plug 
People talking but there’s nothing to discuss 


I’ve been waiting for my time to come 
been going crazy and my mind is numb 
The light is fading cause we’re dying young 
this life’s a maze it feels like i am lost 
Just give it time 
and I’ll be fine 


Hang in there hold on tight just keep fighting
Keep believing, don’t give up, keep on trying
Take a chance, give it time don’t give up
Look inside understand you’re good enough
You need to believe in yourself when no one cares
You need to continue to work with nobody there
The keys to visualize living your best life
24 hours a day, working Working the late nights
Nothing worth having is ever gonna be easy to get
Give it time, keep trying again and again
hold yourself up with love and with pride
You are worthy so give it time

I’ve been waiting for my time to come 
been going crazy and my mind is numb 
The light is fading cause we’re dying young 
this life’s a maze it feels like i am lost 
Just give it time 
and I’ll be fine
