Heart Attack - Ugly Heroes

They say that you do…

When everything is fallin' apart

Don’t you ever lose your heart

I know most people wouldn’t call me optimistic

At best I’m realistic and at worst, they say, a cynic

And I get it, but honestly, I think it’s too simplistic

My entire life was based upon a pipe dream and I risked it

Cause as a kid they fill your head with so much pressure

I never bought their method of the way success is measured

They promise people treasure in the form of legal tender

If you leave behind the dreams and hope to give you real pleasure

But I remember in kindergarten, writin' what I wanted to be

I wrote three: 1 was a wrestler

2 was a singer and the other was swamp thing

Now we choose our careers because we want things

As we get older

, society on shoulder

Holdin' our dreams hostage and turnin' us ever colder

I do it for the dreamers, it’s not a newsflash

Fuck the nonbelievers, you got a heart, don’t ever lose that

Don’t you ever lose your heart

Man, don’t you ever lose your heart

This world’ll try to rip you apart

Don’t you ever let 'em take your heart

When everything is fallin' apart

Take a second and go back to the start

Don’t you ever lose your heart

Don’t you ever lose your heart

Yeah, it’s never too late to die from somethin' you love

Never too late to make somethin' out of today

It never was, it never will be, I used to walk the neighborhood

I didn’t really fear much

Walked around the neighborhood with headphones as earmuffs

Frozen tears cloggin' up my tear ducts

I’m older, a nickel bag was cheaper than a beer was

Only cause I knew the dealer… it was me

It was easy, everybody smoked… it was weed

We can see the pattern here, life was easygoin' then

I would be fronted and then be owin' them

Who could stop?

Steph Curry with Dell watchin' my confidence level swell

I never even threw a punch, but I could excel boxin'

I’d tell people I couldn’t lose

Parker Lewis with Ferris Bueller reviews

I think I kept a little of that swag, a little of that beta

That young dreamer is Anakin

I never ended up a Darth Vader, let’s go

Don’t you ever lose your heart

Man, don’t you ever lose your heart

This world’ll try to rip you apart

Don’t you ever let 'em take your heart

When everything is fallin' apart

Take a second and go back to the start

Don’t you ever lose your heart

Don’t you ever lose your heart
