Ridin' high on your accomplishments
And always claim, "Self-made, I'm the one because I'm gettin' paid
Now, I'm my own God and this is my world
I'm at the top, uh-uh, I can't be stopped"
Well now, don't you see that you're creating your own misery?
Come back down so you can see, it's not what it seems to be
It's just another empty dream
One that leaves you with nothing
When will you see, it's time to wake up and change
It's just an empty dream, your life is too good to waste
And it never lasts, don't be trapped by yourself
Face your past, face to face!
Let's get deeper and go a little further into the past
You live this way to hide your pain
When no one else is there, your smile and confidence
It fades
When will you see, it's time to wake up and change
It's just an empty dream, your life is too good to waste
And it never lasts, don't be trapped by yourself
Face your past, face to face!
When will you see, it's time to wake up and change
It's just an empty dream, your life is too good to waste
And it never lasts, don't be trapped by yourself
Face your past, face to face!
So wake up, life's too short
