Paradox - Asher Monroe

When you’re far away in an empty space

And you’ve given your all and run the race

When your hope is strong but begins to fade

Don’t lose your faith, pieces fall into place (place, place, place)

When you shoot for the moon (moon) but land in the stars (stars)

You’re bruised from all (all) your battle scars (scars)

Yeah, life is like (like) a game of cards (cards)

Do the best with what you’re dealt and do it well

School of hard knocks

Hear it tick-tock

Don’t be afraid

We’re living in a paradox

When you’re scared inside but you don’t know why

When you’re filled with love but don’t live a lie

And can barely breathe, keeping track of time

Just to know your worth, know your worth, know you’ll be fine

When you hold on tight and you can’t find the flow

When you think too deep to let it show

You afraid of your own shadow

Gotta learn, gotta learn to let it go

School of hard knocks

Hear it tick-tock

Breathe, just relax

We’re living in a paradox

(We're living in a motherfucking paradox)

Paradox, yeah, living in a paradox, yeah

In a box, yeah, living in a paradox, yeah

In a box, yeah, living in a paradox, yeah

Paradox, yeah, living in a paradox, yeah

Mmh-hm, yeah

Mmh-hm, yeah

Yeah

Uh-uh
