Jonny Craig & Kyle Lucas – The Party And The Dream
Jonny Craig & Kyle Lucas – The Party And The Dream Lyrics:
(Kyle Lucas Verse 1)
Ugh yup, trying to do what I love
Trying to chase my dreams but my feet they giving up
Cause it seems I hit a ceiling it and I’m feeling kinda stuck
Trying to just stay positive but ain’t positive its enough
Because a bunch of things that just factor in, I’m not a factory so don’t rush
Me on these songs all along been no entourage on this bus
Just been me, myself and I, pretty much only people I trust
Survived a couple of pitfalls, couple people got pissed off
And I bit my tongue and just kept quite through the blatant disrespect
I been down and out, I mean counted out and I mean basically left for dead
Ain’t no round about go head count it out I mean bitch go and place your bets
Oh you “bout it bout it” then bowing out cause I’m bound to get what’s next
But then my Happiness has been drained; emotionally I’m in debt
I’m just trying to stay focused, that’s easier said
Every turn has a turncoat business has cache
And ya I know I forgave some people but never did I forget
Yup
(Jonny Craig)
It’s the party and the dream
And the boy who rides in between
I’m only getting bigger, I’m Only
It’s The Party and the dream
And the boy who rides in between
I’m only getting better,
I’m only getting
(Kyle Lucas Verse 2)
And then a couple things ain’t pan out, did my best to branch out
Seems I had some luck before but I think that bitch just ran out
You only want what’s best well, best you better stand out
And then every person I meet now and it seems they got they hand out
And I went so long with out writing; I almost threw the towel in
I’m at a loss for words, somebody throw a vowel in
I’m only human, takes a lot of talent
Between the party and the dream, and I’m searching for that balance
So fuck them to infinity cause this industry almost finished me
All this negative energy you ain’t been through this no empathy
These opinions ain’t offending me, critics ain’t no friends to me
What’s the worst that you can do? I’m already my own worst enemy
They love it when you on top, ride coattails when you pop
And pray to God you don’t flop, ’cause so called friends will walk
My flows on fire, been through hell
Opened fire you can see the shells
Tried to assassinate my character but then they failed
Oh well
(Jonny Craig Hook)
It’s the party and the dream.
And the boy who rides in between.
I’m only getting bigger, I’m only.
It’s The party and the dream.
And the boy who rides in between.
I’m only getting better,
I’m only getting.
