You and me, why are we living in retrograde
Loving me, losing me, driving without a break
Going full speed ahead never without a fight
Running red lights
Running red lights
Oh, Oh, no turning …
[Chorus]
Trust issues got me being cautious
Not friendly – niggas rolling swishers
Do I wanna hit it – not really
Blood in the streets for any one of my niggas
I’m ridin solo – …
[Hook:]
I’m kissing styrofoam
You know what I be on
Thats what I be on
She know what I be on
Who know what I be on
Thats what I be on
Baby move along
I keep moving …
He’s still driving that 1970 hand-me-down truck
And he’s still wearing that red and black jersey
Waiting for the band to start up
He’s still showing up twenty late, finding hearts and rules …
You know I’m gonna hit it on the radio
You know I’m gonna put it on my video
I know you gon’ be turning up the volume
I know you wanna split me …
Hoping you take that jump
But don’t fear the fall1
Hope when the water rises
You built a wall
Hoping the crowd screams out
Screaming your name2
Hope if everybody runs
You choose to stay
Hope that you fall in love
And it hurts so bad3
The only way you can know
Is give it all you have4
And I hope that you don’t suffer
But take the pain5
Hope when the moment comes you say
I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second
That this world could give6
I saw so many places7
The things that I did
With every broken bone
I swear I lived8
Hope that you spend your days
But they all add up
And when that sun goes down
Hope you raise your cup9
I wish that I could witness
All your joy and all your pain10
But until my moment comes
I’ll say
I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second
That this world could give
I saw so many places
And things that I did
With every broken bone
I swear I lived
With every broken bone
I swear I lived
With every broken bone
I swear I lived
I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second
That this world could give
I saw so many places
And things that I did girl
With every broken bone
I swear I lived
“Hoping you take that jump but don’t fear the fall” is an appropriate opening line for this OneRepublic song about taking advantage of all of life’s opportunities fully.
While this may seem like a lyric encouraging others to seek fame, it really is simply encouraging others to live a life in the way of “carpe diem.”
OneRepublic is encouraging listeners to pursue things that have true meaning, not shallow things that are never fulfilling, even if there are risks.
OneRepublic is teaching the idea that giving 50% is never good for anybody. Don’t settle for less than 100%.
Although suffering isn’t always desirable, it cannot be eliminated entirely, so people should not allow fear to influence their decision-making.
“I owned every second that this world could give” is the perfect inspirational lyric for this inspiring song, encouraging listeners to be able to say they seized the day every day of their life.
Traveling is often associated with a fulfilling life.
The pain and failures cannot prevent someone from moving forward.
“Hope you raise your cup” means OneRepublic wants people to be able to salute the day they have lived with a smile.
Whether joy or pain, all life should be lived to the fullest with no regrets.
