once in a lifetime

i've been around long enough to know

i've heard the story told

i've seen this life unfold

i heard a sound

a voice i don't recall

a stranger i don't know

my back against the wall

i'm done running away

i'm coming

i will escape

take me away

this place is never the same

never the same

this is once in a lifetime

i've been running in circles

i've been chasing the sun

i guess i'm looking for something

but i just don't know what

everything has a purpose

everyone has their doubts

why's it feel so uncertain?

why you running around?

it ain't easy

leave it up to me

a perfect place to be

a perfect place to be

i'm done running away

i'm coming

i will escape

take me away

this place is never the same

never the same

this is once in a lifetime

something's happening

this feeling's setting in

i refuse to give in

hold on

hold on

there's a vibe in the air

when the truth comes clear

you can find it here

hold on

hold on

i'm done running away

i'm coming

i will escape

take me away

this place is never the same

never the same

this is once in a lifetime

yeah

but i'm done running away

it's something i can't explain

ready for change

you know that i can't stay

it's never the same

this is once in a lifetime

(lifetime

i'm done running away

it's something i can't explain

take me away

this place is never the same

never the same

this is once in a lifetime)
