"Confetti" lyrics
"Confetti"
I gotta keep myself in check sometimes
'Cause' I tend to dream real big sometimes
The fancy outfits and the sparkly awards
My name in lights, the people lined up at the doors
But I gotta remember to take it one step at a time
[Chorus:]
'Cause people seem to think
That you'll be happier, once you reach the top
You'll have it all
But I'm living for right now
'Cause what if tomorrow never comes
I'm not waiting, I'm not waiting
For the confetti to fall
I can't just sit around and wait for my life to start
I can make a difference, put a little happiness in someone's heart
The fancy cars, the glitter and the fame
It's all nice, but it won't be worth a thing
Love is bigger, so I'mma stand up for love, yeah
[Chorus:]
People seem to think
That you'll be happier, once you reach the top
You'll have it all
But I'm living for right now
'Cause what if tomorrow never comes
I'm not waiting, I'm not waiting
For the confetti to fall
[Bridge:]
If there was a rope stretching up to the sky
With all of my dreams at the very top, so high
I get so caught up in everything around me, moving quickly
I forget to cherish every single moment I receive Oh
I forget about the climb, I just wanna get there
Don't wanna wait in line, even though it's so clear
That I'm called to use patience on this journey that I'm on
I know that I'll come out alive and it'll only make me stronger
Oh oh, while everybody's focused on the hype
Oh oh, oh oh... I'll be wondering why we seem to think
You'll be happier, once you reach the top
You'll have it all
But I'm living for right now
'Cause what if tomorrow never comes
I'm not waiting, I'm not waiting, no
[Chorus:]
People seem to think
That you'll be happier, once you reach the top
You'll have it all
But I'm living for right now, hey
'Cause what if tomorrow never comes
I'm not waiting, no I'm not waiting
For the confetti to fall
I'm not waiting to be happy
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Ooh, yeah

When I laid eyes on you
