(Intro) (Synthé planant, voix filtrée et haute) Yeah, yeah... Is this real, or just a dream I sold? Can you tell me where my heart got cold? (Couplet 1) Strobe lights flashin', paintin' ceilings gold I hit the gas, now I'm cruisin' on cruise control Used to pray for this view, now I feel so hollow Tell me, is success just a pill that I swallow? Lookin' in the mirror, see a stranger’s face Am I runnin' forward or stuck in the same place? The pedestal is high, but the fall is low Does the shine matter if the soul won't glow? They throwin' roses, but I'm smellin' dust Is this adoration or a temporary trust? (Refrain - Le rythme s'intensifie, la basse frappe lourdement) Twenty questions, and I got no reply When I touch the ceiling, do I lose the sky? If I never apologize, did I ever care? When I reach the summit, is anybody there? Can I chase the spotlight and still be sincere? Why is simple peace the one thing I fear? Is the fire in my chest burnin' pride or fuel? If the spotlight fades, am I still the jewel? Can I hold the crown and still stay humble? When I talk that talk, do I eventually stumble? (Couplet 2) Used to call my friends, now the phone just rings Guess my status changed, but the joy it never brings I push the real ones out, they can't understand the pressure 'Cause my ego needs a win, need a new treasure Did I mistake my fortune for my character? Is that a friend or just a loyal messenger? I keep the blinds shut 'cause I can't face the light Is it lonely at the top, or is it just night? Stackin' all the paper, but the receipt's too long Am I scared of silence 'cause I know that I'm wrong? Tryna keep my feet down, but my head's on Mars How many more losses till I see the scars? (Refrain - La basse revient en force) Twenty questions, and I got no reply When I touch the ceiling, do I lose the sky? If I never apologize, did I ever care? When I reach the summit, is anybody there? Can I chase the spotlight and still be sincere? Why is simple peace the one thing I fear? Is the fire in my chest burnin' pride or fuel? If the spotlight fades, am I still the jewel? Can I hold the crown and still stay humble? When I talk that talk, do I eventually stumble? (Pont - Le beat s'adoucit, plus émotionnel) They say "Be yourself," but which self do they mean? The one on the covers or the one behind the screen? I'm lookin' for a mirror that won't lie to me Is the price of this glory my sobriety? If I drop the act, will they just walk away? Can I start over from this very day? Am I strong enough to just say, "I need help"? (Outro - Le beat s'estompe, synthé en écho et voix lointaine) Yeah, I need help... Can I start over? Will they walk away? Is it lonely at the top? (Dernière phrase en boucle, disparaissant lentement) Twenty questions, and I got no reply... No reply...
