about

JFUN (Jordan David) and Rise Ashen in Ottawa Canada teaming up for this emotional philosophical number about the passage of time and learning from the mistakes we made in the past.

lyrics

In my mind, I've been workin'
Overtime, Waiting for my
My chance to come, Waiting for my
My light to shine, yeah.
It's all a game, When I get used and played
Reflecting on my life and all my past mistakes
Cause you know that I've made a few,
Learning from my own thing
I had to keep it in my own lane.

If tomorrow never came, what'd you have today?
Chasin your dreams but the dreams don't stay,
Always busy searchin, always on the next thing,
Soon as you blink, the moment's gone away
Moments gone away. Gotta live for today. You've got to live for today.

It's all a game that I refuse to play.
With open arms I welcome my mistakes, (I let em go).
And all the nights that I have spent awake, (up all night)
I gotta find my way, I gotta find my way

You never know when, life's gonna flip,
Everytime you blink, everything can change,
You can never take sides, cause you never really know,
You can never take for granted how it's gonna go,
So close to the picture that you can't see the shapes,
So full of your dreams, now they feel strange,
So eager to live you forget to take a breath,
You're working overtime but you're living under mind X3
You're working overtime and it's working on your mind X2

Screaming at the world thinking that I'll bring change,
You say the word, and I'm a be there,
Enough a big talkin
I'm ready for the walkin
Ain't nothing gonna stop me...
I'm gonna find my way

If tomorrow never came, what'd you have today,
Chasing your dreams but the dreams don't stay...
Gotta find my way...
