Way Out Lyrics by Retep

White Lies

2017

Last night I was on the phone with my girl
But to me I was on the phone with the world
She always uplifting and tryna motivate
Not like other women shes tired of not having the record straight
She said peter I love you but you need to help yourself
Get on your feet or feelings may develop for someone else
I care about you forever and always
But you can't hang onto moments we had in the hallways
Outside of your music you really are nothing
You do make me smile but you can't live off my assumptions
You have no job and no car what do you offer?
You still go up to the park thinking youre a baller
Are you going to college are you ever moving out?
If you wanna keep me aorund you better do it now
It would really break my heart to say im leaving you
But the same reasons I would are the same reasons I belive in you

Hook
Im just a kid looking for a way out
I have to stand up no time to lay down
I can't ever let down the ones that I love
Knowing everything ive done wasn't enough


Verse 2
I hung up the phone knowing I needed to hear it
I had to go look in the mirror and promise not the fear it
I was sitting under a mountain compared to rock bottom
Then came an avalanche im looking up to a rock collum
Where im at right now it seems like everything falling down
Im over what you call the ground pick up the pieces to calm my doubt
Knowing my future a mansion while the past is a haunted house
Knowing im a good spirit but nothing to be flaunted now
With that said I ackowlegde this is my only chance
I have to try to live my life or die lonely man
Do it for me not for her love isnt always holding hands
This is do or die now or never or I won't advance


I have to risk it all just to live my dream
I gotta provide and survive even on different means
Time and effort go together both of them were missing me
But baby im coming back please dont look at me differently
I gotta start doing things moving things choosing things
Improving things only side effect im losing things
If im nothing outside of music then my chips on the table
You could never call my bluff when my life is in shambles
If no love is lost then everying is worth a gamble
If I need to play my cards right I promise to earn a handful
If this is the hand I was dealt I promise to lean a handle
From watching iverson and curry I promise to burn a ankle
I was caught up with people didn't know how to take it all
People sleeping on me was ironicallly my wake up call
Its funny how one phone call may change your life
I called her back said thank you I knew you were right
