One, two, one two three
Look they never thought that we'd do it
I'll admit I had my doubts
They tell you follow your heart
Then turn around and they run their mouth
Look I always tuned them out
Now look at me, now look at me
I probably won't make history
But I'll make a damn good life for me
Shit, I did this without a label or a manager or agent
Now every show is amazing and every week's a vacation
They told me I wouldn't make it
They wasted their time with hating
They say I'm an average Joe but just look at the girl I'm dating
Look I almost died a week ago
And I really needed that wakeup call
Shoulda had my seatbelt on because I almost lost it all
But if you never get a chance to fall
Then how you supposed to get up
To get a breath of fresh air, theres gonna be some hiccups
So live like you mean it and love til you feel it
When life hands you a lemon we'll sit back and peel it
Cuz I heard everything from your music makes my ears deaf
To you a badass like Hugh Jack, you a playboy like Hugh Hef
[Katy Perry Sample]
I wish I knew then, what I know now
Woulda kept my head up back when it was falling down
Cuz I remember days when ain't nobody was there
And I wouldn't be a man if I told you I wasn't scared
Gotta keep it moving ain't no plans of turning back
Cuz life is way to short to keep on dwelling on the past
And I know I'll be a fool if I said this gone last
Because everything gone change you can never change that
And I hope this never turns into a nightmare, never bites me in my ass
Cuz I've done some fucked up shit
And I hope it all stays in my past
I'm just praying it gone last cuz I'm too set now to fail
They'd rather see me all burn up in flames
And never see a kid like me prevail but
I feel like I've been through hell and back
For where I'm at and I'm fine with that
Never thought two years ago anybody would ever know about Huey Mack
But now they do and I feel like its all surreal
Sold out shows across the country and parties in Beverly Hills
Man it ain't the hand that your given it's just how you play your cards
Fuck being famous, I wasn't supposed to be a star
This all happened by accident, this all happened by chance
But in any way that you put it I'm doing what they said I can't
I wish I knew then, what I know now
Woulda kept my head up back when it was falling down
Cuz I remember days when ain't nobody was there
And I wouldn't be a man if I told you I wasn't scared
Gotta keep it moving ain't no plans of turning back
Cuz life is way to short to keep on dwelling on the past
And I know I'll be a fool if I say this gone last
Because everything gone change you can never change that
Living out a fantasy, the one I always dreamed, because I believe
Don't let nobody say what you can't do or what you can't achieve
Have faith in everything that you do
See if you don't believe in yourself
Why you think they bout to believe in you
You put your mind to it and your heart in it
Mix it up with some hard work and your wildest dreams will come true
Take a sip to reality
Get high to defy the gravity
They never saw it in me so amazed that it came out of me
Cuz I'm just a normal kid tryna make it in this world
I don't do it for the fame or the change or the girls
