Paradise Songtext

von Snoh Aalegra

Fell asleep on the night train
Was dreaming of something a little more
Lauryn preaching in my ears
The type of shit that I can't ignore
Before my heroes were using
When MTV was playing music
I fell in love with a sound
Had to play it loud
And I put my faith in a pile of crumpled papers
I promised myself I'd find the way

And that I won't look back
This road i'm gonna follow
No map on the dash
Cause I already know, I already
Foot down on the gas
Cause we ain't promised tomorrow
Imma light the way with fire in my eyes

I'm Just a mile from Paradise
(Paradise, Paradise, Paradise)
I'm Just a mile from Paradise
(Paradise, Paradise, Paradise)

Waking up on a airplane
Moving around, where is my home?
I ain't traveling with no names
Cause some journeys are made alone
People around me waisting their time
Tryina tell me how to spend mine
No regrets
I knew what I wanted all along
And I've put, my faith in a pile of crumpled papers
I've promised myself i'd find the way

And that I won't look back
This road i'm gonna follow
No map on the dash
Cause I already know, I already
Foot down on the gas
Cause we ain't promised tomorrow
Imma light the way with fire in my eyes

I'm Just a mile from Paradise
(Paradise, Paradise, Paradise)
I'm Just a mile from Paradise
(Paradise, Paradise, Paradise)

At times I feel
Like i've been swimming in the deep end
But I promised mom a new house
On me she depends
Learnt the hard way
The definition of fake friends
But theirs only so long people can pretend
Looking left and right as I drive
See familiar faces
Passed out on the side
Who bought the same ticket
To the same ride at the same time
But i'll be all right

And that I won't look back
This road i'm gonna follow
No map on the dash
Cause I already know, I already
Foot down on the gas
Cause we ain't promised tomorrow
Imma light the way with fire in my eyes

I'm Just a mile from Paradise
(Paradise, Paradise, Paradise)
I'm Just a mile from Paradise
(Paradise, Paradise, Paradise)

Just so you know
(Paradise, Paradise, Paradise)
Just so you know
(Paradise, Paradise, Paradise)
