Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I could spend a lifetime lookin' for something
Waiting for the one, but it's never coming
Miles and miles, but I can't stop running
Can't stop running
[Verse 2]
'Cause when I'm at my best, I just see imperfections
Counting up my debts, never counting my blessings
Always out of reach, but it's right there in front of me
Right there in front of me, am I always gonna be?
[Verse 3]
Chasing my shadow
Chasing my shadow
[Verse 4]
Drinkin' on my back porch, dreamin' we'll get out
Scuffin' up my white Vans, sneak out of your house
Just a couple kids tryna figure it all out
Actin' reckless and stupid like life is a movie
[Verse 5]
Ok, now let's fast forward, stick to the program
Stickers on my passport, New York to London
Seen the Eiffel Tower through a telescope
Watch a car crash and a homeless man
He said, "What do you know?" Well, what do I know?
[Verse 6]
Chasing my shadow
Chasing my shadow
Wherever I run, wherever I go
Will I ever stop wanting more?
Chasing my shadow
[Verse 7]
Power lines through the city
The Bowery looks so pretty
How far I've come, how far I've gotta go
And oh, the irony is killing me, it's killing me
As soon as I get what I wanted before
It's not what I want anymore
[Verse 8]
I'm chasing my shadow
Chasing my shadow (Chasing my)
Wherever I run, wherever I go
Will I ever stop wanting more?
Chasing my shadow
Chasing my shadow
Chasing my shadow
