The Journey

[Intro] World renowned But I don’t know me Whole town loud I’m low-key [Verse 1] Paparazzi in the driveway Flashbulbs on my bad days Gold frame on a cracked face Name big, but my hands shake Two phones and they both ring New deal, doesn’t mean things I’m the hero in the headlines But I’m hiding in my own mind [Chorus] This is the journey (the journey) Riding through the noise just to touch that quiet World on my back, but my heart stays private I’ve been chasing every shadow that the spotlights throw Till I turn around and finally meet my soul This is the journey (the journey) Yeah, the journey home [Verse 2] Steroidal expectations Every move is medication Pump my flaws full of fragrance Spray it on, call it greatness Stereophonic in my brain waves Left side fear, right side brave Two voices in a cage match Same blood, different name tag [Chorus] This is the journey (the journey) Riding through the noise just to touch that quiet World on my back, but my heart stays private I’ve been chasing every shadow that the spotlights throw Till I turn around and finally meet my soul This is the journey (the journey) Yeah, the journey home [Bridge] Indigo sky on the rearview Every scar got a clear view I been running from a kid Who just wanted to be near you Talking to myself in the dark now (yeah) Saying “you don’t have to play that part now” Take the crown, put it down on the car seat Breathe deep, hear the real me heartbeat (hey!) [Chorus] This is the journey (the journey) Riding through the noise just to touch that quiet World on my back, but my heart stays private I’ve been chasing every shadow that the spotlights throw Till I turn around and finally meet my soul This is the journey (the journey) Yeah, the journey home
