[Intro] Yeah… It’s late again Same streetlights, different thoughts Still here though [Verse 1] I clock out tired, hands still shaking from the shift Bus ride home, headphones playing something I can lift Bills on the table like they waiting for a fight Fridge kinda empty but I’m planning bigger life Mama saying “sleep,” but my mind don’t listen Every “no” I got turned into a mission Studio’s my room, mic hanging off a coat rack If I don’t make it out, I swear I’m going back Same block, same faces, same talk of “one day” But I can’t wait forever, I gotta run mine my way Pen to the phone, writing verses in the dark Trying to turn these little sparks into a heart that’s art [Pre-Chorus] I’ve been low, I’ve been broke, I’ve been stuck in between But I still see something they don’t see in me Every night I tell myself don’t fold Keep going even when it feels cold [Chorus] I’m still clocking dreams when the night gets heavy Still pushing forward when the road ain’t steady If I fall down, I get back up again I’m not done yet, I’m just wearing thin Still clocking dreams, I don’t sleep like I should Trying to turn my bad days into something good Yeah, I know it’s far, but I’m close enough to feel it One more run, I swear I’m gonna seal it [Verse 2] Now I’m balancing calls with beats on my laptop Boss asking questions like “when you gonna stop?” I smile and nod, but I’m mentally gone Thinking about stages when I’m writing this song Friends switching lanes, some don’t call no more But I can’t blame ‘em, I’m just not the same no more Got this hunger in me that don’t fade with time It grows every setback, every borderline climb I seen people shine, then lose it all quick So I move slow, but I never quit Every track I drop is another piece of proof That I’m closer to the life I always told the truth [Pre-Chorus] I’ve been low, I’ve been broke, I’ve been stuck in between But I still see something they don’t see in me Every night I tell myself don’t fold Keep going even when it feels cold [Chorus] I’m still clocking dreams when the night gets heavy Still pushing forward when the road ain’t steady If I fall down, I get back up again I’m not done yet, I’m just wearing thin Still clocking dreams, I don’t sleep like I should Trying to turn my bad days into something good Yeah, I know it’s far, but I’m close enough to feel it One more run, I swear I’m gonna seal it [Bridge] If I make it out, I won’t forget this room Cheap light flicker, writing songs at noon Every doubt I had, I turned into fuel Now I move different, but I still stay true Maybe success don’t change who you are inside It just shows you what you kept alive And if I fall again, I’ll still believe That I was always meant for more than I could see [Final Chorus] I’m still clocking dreams when the night gets heavy Still pushing forward when the road ain’t steady If I fall down, I get back up again I’m not done yet, I’m just wearing thin Still clocking dreams, I don’t sleep like I should Trying to turn my bad days into something good Yeah, I know it’s far, but I’m close enough to feel it One more run, I swear I’m gonna seal it [Outro] Yeah… still clocking dreams Same streetlights Different me… someday
