"Holidaze" lyrics

Lecrae & Jon Bellion Lyrics

"Holidaze"

It's a paradise
And it calls my name
But I can't keep taking holidays

It's a paradox seeking paradise
Thought I'd try my luck
And roll it up like a pair of dice
Took a break from being present
In the presence of a lesson
I ain't trying to hear the message
I escape the pain with pleasure

Taking holidays
Eating bolognese
Wearing Prada shades
Sipping Chardonnay
Check the Cartier
Watch, watch

Everything in gold chains
Meltdown, everything can go in flames
Idols living in my heart
What's wrong with me?
All I need is time
But time's controlling me
Played the game so long
I know it's no winning
Left the holiday
To get some soul healing
Feel like I deserve to have Miami vices
But every fleeting pleasure come with sacrifices
This is not a liberty, it's license
Every holiday got hidden prices, yikes

Hold my heart, hold my face
I spent too long on this vacation
I flew too high, I love the escape
But I think it's time to land this plane
No more fireworks, no more chase
I can't keep that type of pace
It's a paradise, and it calls my name
But I can't keep taking holidays
I can't keep taking holidays
It's a paradise, and it calls my name
But I can't keep taking holidays

Life and time are precious
So I live it slowly
Let go of the purp like it's a new parolee
Engine going out, I was losing my drive
The truth is all around
But I'm choosing the lie
Who would've thought I'd be trusted
To be a caretaker
On the beach getting twisted
Without a hair braider
Laugh now, prepare later
Rare flavor, fare saver
Seeking vanity
Guess I'm an air chaser
If I had to say it honestly
I was too afraid to face my demons
Cause I wanted what they promised me
A handful of lies about resting
Don't look at the wreckage
Just drink away your depression
You could probably kill your anxiety with possessions
Wrestle for a second before I ignore the message
I don't want the lesson they trying to teach
They offer you the world
Best believe it don't come with peace, capisce?

Hold my heart, hold my faith
I spent too long on this vacation
I flew too high, I love to escape
But I think it's time to end this play
No more fireworks, no more chase
I can't get back to the place
It's a paradise, and it calls my name
But I can't keep taking, I can't keep taking
I can't keep taking holidays

Oh, I can't keep taking holidays
It's a paradise, and it calls my name
But I can't keep taking holidays
