[00:19.63]Yeah, listen, before music was a piece of my life
[00:23.84]I used to play basketball, that was me every night
[00:26.78]I wanted to play college to, yo I\'d reach for the sky
[00:29.26]Until, at eighteen, I caught some disease in my eye, yeah
[00:32.46]I had to stop playing, what should I do?
[00:34.95]When ball was the only thing I wanted to do
[00:37.26]Listen, that forced me to focus on music
[00:40.19]Pez sat me down like \\\"bro we can do this\\\"
[00:43.12]After hearing that I didn\'t need more really
[00:45.76]Going half blind made me see more clearly
[00:48.49]Yo, I\'ve learnt to take the good with the bad
[00:50.71]I\'m half blind yeah but now have a look where I\'m at
[00:53.94]When something seems to turn negative in life
[00:56.41]You can always go and turn it into anything you like
[00:59.24]So if it happens just remember every time
[01:01.40]Yo, a tragedy can always be a blessing in disguise
[01:05.16]When you\'re on your own
[01:10.57]No one\'s there for you
[01:15.93]When you\'re all the way home
[01:19.73]There\'ll be a miracle in a costume
[01:24.96]Yeah, uh
[01:26.52]When I was young I was attracted to the dark side
[01:29.31]I wanted everyone to see me as the hard guy
[01:31.97]Walking around with my mates trying to start fights
[01:34.58]Hoping they wouldn\'t want to cause I can\'t fight
[01:37.32]Thinking back now that **** could of ended crazy
[01:40.17]I\'m just glad that situation never faced me
[01:42.89]Back then I was thinking you could never change me
[01:45.60]What a ****head, that\'s not how my parents raised me
[01:48.43]See I wasn\'t facing the facts
[01:50.45]Acting crazy, wishing I could take it all back but
[01:53.45]It took one of my mates to get stabbed just to realize
[01:56.42]This **** wasn\'t a game, it was wack
[01:58.91]That\'s how I wrote \\\"So Fake\\\" so easily
[02:01.44]\'Cause, apart of those dudes, I could see in me
[02:04.33]So, if somebody is wanting to fight
[02:06.15]Just swallow your pride and leave it be and that\'s real
[02:10.14]When you\'re on your own
[02:15.53]No one\'s there for you
[02:20.88]When you\'re all the way home
[02:24.65]There\'ll be a miracle in a costume
[02:31.04]Yeah, yeah, uh, I nearly died in an accident
[02:34.39]Yeah, and so I wrote this story
[02:36.67]It\'s funny though how the worst thing to happen
[02:40.05]Probably was the best thing for me
[02:41.99]Falling and Flying shouldn\'t take this long
[02:44.06]But thanks to the crash, yo I made this song
[02:46.69]So now I ain\'t afraid to see the day that I die
[02:49.32]Because, with this, I\'ll be staying alive (I\'ll be staying alive)
[02:52.35]Yeah, I believe in believing the sky\'s the limit
[02:55.58]Have a look and you\'ll see me up there, flying in it
[02:58.20]It\'s a nice view, sometimes you might lose
[03:00.93]But understand when you fall you can fly too
[03:03.52]Don\'t let anybody tell you what you can\'t do
[03:06.11]Don\'t let them enter in your head because they aren\'t you
[03:08.74]And understand you could have anything you want
[03:10.93]If you put the effort in to remember what you\'ve got
[03:14.48]When you\'re on your own
[03:20.18]No one\'s there for you
[03:25.44]When you\'re all the way home
[03:29.31]There\'ll be a miracle in a costume
