I'm just a guy with a notebook and a pen
Running through the nights, chasing dreams again
City lights flash, the world spins fast
But I won't let my future be a shadow of my past
Late nights in the basement, beats on repeat
Living on ramen, barely making ends meet
My father said, Boy, don't you lose yourself
But I'm diving in deep, putting fear on the shelf
Runaway dreams, they keep me alive
Fire in my soul, it's how I survive
Every scar, every fight, it's all part of the ride
Chasing those stars, I'm never gonna hide
Friends turned ghosts, but I keep moving on
Lost in the music, it's where I belong
Fell down hard, but I rise like the sun
With every broken piece, I know I've just begun
Sleepless nights, drowning in my thoughts
Battling the demons, fighting the onslaughts
They say I'm crazy, but I know it's true
If you want to live big, gotta break a few rules
Runaway dreams, they keep me alive
Fire in my soul, it's how I survive
Every scar, every fight, it's all part of the ride
Chasing those stars, I'm never gonna hide
Friends turned ghosts, but I keep moving on
Lost in the music, it's where I belong
Fell down hard, but I rise like the sun
With every broken piece, I know I've just begun
Sleepless nights, drowning in my thoughts
Battling the demons, fighting the onslaughts
They say I'm crazy, but I know it's true
If you want to live big, gotta break a few rules
Runaway dreams, they keep me alive
Fire in my soul, it's how I survive
Every scar, every fight, it's all part of the ride
Chasing those stars, I'm never gonna hide
Tattooed memories, inked on my skin
Every line a story, where I've been
I see the doubters, hear their lies
But I'll burn brighter, light up the skies
Tattooed memories, inked on my skin
Every line a story, where I've been
I see the doubters, hear their lies
But I'll burn brighter, light up the skies
So here's to the dreamers, the lost and found
We're writing our fate, making our sound
No matter the struggle, no matter the pain
We'll keep running wild, through their lies
But I'll burn brighter, light up the skies
Hey-hey
Hey-ja, hey
Runaway dreams, they keep me alive
Fire in my soul, it's how I survive
Every scar, every fight, it's all part of the ride
Chasing those stars, I'm never gonna hide
So here's to the dreamers, the lost and found
We're writing our fate, making our sound
No matter the struggle, no matter the pain
We'll keep running wild, through the wind and the rain
