Paradise

Fell asleep on the night train

Was dreaming of something a little more

Lauryn preaching in my ears

The type of shit that I can't ignore

Before my heroes were using

When MTV was playing music

I fell in love with a sound

Had to play it loud

And I put my faith in a pile of crumpled papers

I've promised myself I'd find the way

That I won't look back

This road I'm gonna follow

No map on the dash

'Cause I already know, I already

Foot down on the gas

'Cause we ain't promised tomorrow

I'ma light the way with fire in my eyes

I'm just a mile from paradise

(Paradise, paradise, paradise)

Just a mile from paradise

(Paradise, paradise, paradise)

Waking up on a airplane

Moving around, where is my home?

I ain't traveling with no names

'Cause some journeys are made alone

People around me wasting their time

Trying to tell me how to spend mine

No regrets, I knew what I wanted all along

And I've put, my faith in a pile of crumpled papers

I've promised myself I'd find the way

And that I won't look back

This road I'm gonna follow

No map on the dash

'Cause I already know, I already

Foot down on the gas

'Cause we ain't promised tomorrow

I'ma light the way with fire in my eyes

I'm just a mile from paradise

(Paradise, paradise, paradise)

Just a mile from paradise

(Paradise, paradise, paradise)

At times, I feel like I've been swimming in the deep end

But I promised mom a new house, on me she depends

Learned the hard way the definition of fake friends

But there's only so long people can pretend

Looking left and right as I drive

See familiar faces, passed out on the side

Who bought the same ticket

To the same ride at the same time

But I'll be all right

And I won't look back

This road I'm gonna follow

No map on the dash

'Cause I already know, I already

Foot down on the gas

'Cause we ain't promised tomorrow

I'ma light the way with fire in my eyes

I'm just a mile from paradise

(Paradise, paradise, paradise)

Just a mile from paradise

(Paradise, paradise, paradise)

Just so you know

(Paradise, paradise, paradise)

Just so you know

(Paradise, paradise, paradise)

(Paradise, paradise, paradise)
