Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well I'm not gonna lie, how can I put this easy
I try and try but what for just to please you
It's true, you're wasting my time
You're just a waste of time
And I don't see why
I should listen to someone who can't listen to themselves
Just listen to yourself
[Verse 2]
Fake it, you'll never get ahead of it
Trace it back to where we started
'Cause back track, baby back tracking never got you nothing
One step forward, two steps back
And if you fake it, they'll never know your real name
Trace it just to find it's such a shame
You wasted your chance
Tasted everything before you ever held it
[Verse 3]
Well I was never gonna complain but why should I
Hold back when I wanted to
Be on your side
You're wasting my time, you're just wasted time
And now I can see
All you wanted was just a chance to be in the spot light
Well baby, it's not right
And sincerely, I'm sick and tired
[Verse 4]
Fake it, you'll never get ahead of it
Trace it back to where we started
'Cause back track, baby back tracking never got you nothing
One step forward, two steps back
And if you fake it, they'll never know your real name
Trace it just to find it's such a shame
You wasted your chance
Tasted everything before you ever held it in your hands
[Verse 5]
They're shaking now, don't break it now
We'll break it down, is this clear enough
[Verse 6]
You're shaking now
Don't break it now, we'll break it down
You're shaking now
Don't break it now, we'll break it down
[Verse 7]
Everybody jump, everybody say whoa
Whoa
Everybody swaying, everybody say whoa
Everybody jump, everybody say whoa
Whoa
Everybody swaying, everybody say whoa
[Verse 8]
Fake it, you'll never get ahead of it
Trace it back to where we started
'Cause back track, baby back tracking never got you nothing
One step forward, two steps back
And if you fake it, they'll never know your real name
Trace it just to find it's such a shame
You wasted your chance
Tasted everything before you ever held it
[Verse 9]
Wasted your chance, tasted everything before you ever held it in your hands
