[Chorus: quinn]
Uh, I know what you want but I know just how to find it
It seems to me you've tried your best just to hide it
Don't worry 'bout me, either way, I'm shining
The purpose to be is who I am, let's take it back
I was just a kid, but I wanted a Maybach
They sent me to school, but I wanted to stay back
Ignored all the tolls that I needed to pay back
It just isn't real, I think and I just fade to black
[Post-Chorus: quinn]
I know what it means to be someone you not
I know what it means to give up and try it
I know what it seems, but you just don't know at all
The purpose to be is who I am, let's take it back
[Verse: saturn]
Buzz him in the door, that's your direction
Paid to stand up tall and be the lesson for the reckless
Void yoursеlf of any thoughts, excess can spell thе ending
And push them out in front of iron arms with no resentment
Every face that comes in, they all rotate a message
Picking up on signals 'til they're all you're making friends with
Force out any questionable facade
The act is wearing off, you're first to go when it gets hectic
When facing life's spite, act as the fall guy
Who takes his pride behind the bars, that's where your help lies
When facing life's spite, act as the fall guy
Who takes his pride behind the bars, that's where your help lies
[Chorus: quinn]
Uh-uh-uh-uh— Uh, I know what you want but I know just how to find it
It seems to me you've tried your best just to hide it
Don't worry 'bout me, either way, I'm shining
The purpose to be is who I am, let's take it back
I was just a kid, but I wanted a Maybach
They sent me to school, but I wanted to stay back
Ignored all the tolls that I needed to pay back
It just isn't real, I think and I just fade to black
[Post-Chorus: quinn]
I know what it means to be someone you not
I know what it means to give up and try it
I know what it seems, but you just don't know at all
The purpose to be is who I am, let's take it back
[Bridge: quinn]
Back-a-back-back
But I wanted a Maybach
Back-a-back-back
But I wanted to stay back
Back-a-back-back
Tolls I needed to pay back
Back-a-back-back
Think and I just fade to black
[Outro: quinn]
I was just a kid, but I wanted a Maybach
They sent me to school, but I wanted to stay back
Ignored all the tolls that I needed to pay back
It just isn't real, I think and I just—
