V4.5-ALL

[Singer A]
Heartbeat racing, time's on the line,
Neon's calling while I'm trying to grind,
One night, one chance, I'm making my move—
Her eyes or the prize, I’ve got plenty to prove.
[Melodic Interlude]
[Singer B]
Open the book, the clock’s on the wall,
One single slip and you’re bound for the fall,
The future you want is built on this test,
Put all those reckless distractions to rest.
[Singer A]
I feel the fire, fire, fire—
She’s everything that I could desire,
If I don’t go, I’m losing the flame,
Tomorrow she won’t even know my damn name.
Alive, alive, alive—
The ink on the page or the look in her eyes?
I’m caught in the heat of a Saturday night,
Everything’s riding on getting this right.
[Instrumental]
[Singer B]
Your career and your long-term goals
Are the only things that should satisfy souls,
A party, a girl, a temporary high,
Don't let them let your whole destiny die.
[Singer A]
Step in the dorm, I’m dressed for the win,
Tension is rising, so where do I begin?
The bass hits hard like the fear in my gut,
Doors opening wide while the others stay shut.
[Singer B]
Visions of wealth and a seat at the top,
Are not for the students who know when to stop,
Romance and dates—and God forbid—lust,
Will turn all your dreams and your honors to dust.
[Singer A]
I won’t fade away,
I won’t lose this spark,
Even in the dark—
I ignite.
[Singer B]
Your career and your long-term goals
Are the only things that should satisfy souls,
A party, a girl, a temporary high,
Don't let them let your whole destiny die.
[Singer A]
If my future’s silent, she’ll be the sound,
If my GPA crashes, I’m still heaven-bound,
Every heartbeat screaming out loud—
“She’s the one… she’s the one… she’s the one…”
[Transition]
[Singer B]
Only the grades and the credits you earn
Are worthy of all of the bridges you burn,
Only the titles and status you gain
Are evidence that you didn't struggle in vain.
[Fades Out]
