[Intro – soft, atmospheric, rain sounds + sparse piano] Have you ever felt like giving up And every day or rainy day you felt stuck, out of luck? Well don’t give up… Tomorrow might be your luck [Chorus] Paper airplanes in the rain They’re not gonna go far They might just end up in your own backyard I get it, life is hard, maine Don’t give up because of the rain Tomorrow could shine And that paper airplane will be gone, maine [Verse 1] Look to whoever – don’t give up on today Tomorrow could be yo day Everyday is different If not, get at me I’ve been there – Groundhog Day every day Stuck in quicksand, it’s hard to get out, man I understand That’s why I’m lending a helping hand Life ain’t easy so please get at me I don’t mind listening until the sunshine I swear I’m here if you need me I ain’t going anywhere So please believe me [Chorus] Paper airplanes in the rain They’re not gonna go far They might just end up in your own backyard I get it, life is hard, maine Don’t give up because of the rain Tomorrow could shine And that paper airplane will be gone, maine [Bridge] Da-da, don’t give up on today Tomorrow, rain or shine Tomorrow could be yo day, maine Da-da, don’t give up on today Tomorrow, rain or shine Tomorrow could be yo day, maine [Verse 2] Life is hard, it’s not easy Who said it was? Not me But look and listen, please I’ve lost everything, even my doggy Those days were very foggy I didn’t know what to do I felt like giving up I was tired, fed up, and beat up I was at the bottom looking up It happened so fast, it was like a flash I had everything to nothing This girl took it all Everything was gone – my dog, my cat, my stash Where I put my cash Like I said… it happened so fast [Chorus] Paper airplanes in the rain They’re not gonna go far They might just end up in your own backyard I get it, life is hard, maine Don’t give up because of the rain Tomorrow could shine And that paper airplane will be gone, maine [Bridge] Da-da, don’t give up on today Tomorrow, rain or shine Tomorrow could be yo day, maine Da-da, don’t give up on today Tomorrow, rain or shine Tomorrow could be yo day, maine [Verse 3 – spoken-sung, more vulnerable] I’m singing this song to you But it’s more like a true story to me Everything in this song is true I get it… I understand you When you want to give up because you can’t get up At the bottom, stuck It seems like no one cares I’ve been there – it sucks But please don’t give up I don’t have everything that I had I miss my dog the most All I can do is pray for a better day Yes, I still do have gray and rainy days But I won’t let it get to me Because tomorrow could be a better day and the sun can shine shine on me you’ll see don’t give up on me. [Final Chorus layered vocals] Paper airplanes in the rain They’re not gonna go far They might just end up in your own backyard I get it, life is hard, maine Don’t give up because of the rain Tomorrow could shine And that paper airplane will be gone, maine [Outro – fading with ad-libs] Da-da… don’t give up on today Tomorrow, rain or shine Tomorrow could be yo day, maine (Yeah… don’t give up) (Tomorrow could shine) (Paper airplanes… gone) Ba-ba… beats by Meats Spaz
