FaceTiming Mom

LA wasn't what I signed up for
Thank God for my family
And I don't wanna be such a downer
Life is never what you think

'Cause the city don't got no breathing space
I'm here on a whim spinning in the same place
Outta my mind and the spiritual vibe
Is draining the life out of my face
Lost nine pounds in a week 'cause I got stressed
FaceTime my mom in the doctor's office
Wanna lay low, I just wanna lay low for once
But not that low 'cause I know myself
And that I won't ever get up again
I let go but not that much because
Coming close to my dreams is just not
Good enough for me, no, no way
If I'ma go in, first let me say

I'm going all the way
I'm going all the way
And I'm living again
And I'm living again
And I'm living again
And I'm living a—

And Chicago is calling my name now (ooh-ooh)
Thank God for a place like home
And I'm blocking the memories out now
Till they grow dim and old

'Cause the city don't got no breathing space
I'm here on a whim spinning in the same place
Outta my mind and the spiritual vibe
Is draining the life out of my face
Lost nine pounds in a week 'cause I got stressed
FaceTime my mom in the doctor's office
Wanna lay low, I just wanna lay low for once
But not that low 'cause I know myself
And that I won't ever get up again
I let go but not that much because
Coming close to your dreams is just not
Good enough for me, no, no way
If I'ma go in, first let me say

I'm going all the way
I'm going all the way
And I'm living again
And I'm living again
And I'm living again
And I'm living a—

I'm not gonna make the same mistakes again
I'm not in a hurry to make any new friends 'cause
All the ones that know the roads have taught me that it's gold
To sit and watch a movie with someone you love so...

I'm going all the way
I'm going all the way
And I'm living again
And I'm living again
And I'm living again
I'm going all the way
