New Day

From the album If I Wasn't Me by Scottychams

Intro

I'm just trying to find a new day

We live like it's a movie

But I don't know

But I don't know

Still, I tell 'em

Verse 1

Thanks if you've been listening

My mission is

To go and switch this shift

Stop the wishes and

Start the living

People tripping

Like they fell

Don't do it for your wealth

Do it for yourself

Cause self-help is hell

But my health is going well

I'm coughing, but

No coffin

I'm chopping

That's no promise

I'm logging in the time

Paid my payments

To the grind

See your face

You gonna lie

I'll keep pushing my limits

You keep asking why

I've been trying

To find a better way

Looking for light

In the mess I made

Every setback

Got a lesson saved

So I wake up

Trying to find a new day

Pre-Chorus

Cause I know I'll

Find my way

Through the pain

All these pages

I write and engrave

My aim

Was to face this

No more fear

No more chasing

I stay with

The feeling

Inside

My mind

Chorus

I'm just trying to find a new day

We live like it's a movie

But I don't know

But I don't know

Verse 2

Where to go

Where to look

Where to grow

I've been paving the path

On my own

A lonely soul

On this road

All alone

Spitting some bars

On these notes

With high hopes

I go

All out

With no wishes

No excuses

No pretending

No waiting

On perfect endings

I sacrifice a ton

I'm giving up a bunch

I did this all off a hunch

I started for fun

But now I'm on the run

And I don't know

What I'm running from

Maybe fear

Maybe doubt

Maybe all the noise

I never figured out

Maybe time

Maybe change

Maybe trying to grow

But still feeling the same

Still I move

Still I pray

Still I wake

For a new day

Chorus

I'm just trying to find a new day

We live like it's a movie

And I don't know

Where it goes

But I know

I can't stay

In the same place

With the same pain

I'm just trying to find a new day

Yeah

A new day

Pre-Chorus

Cause I know I'll

Find my way

Through the pain

All these pages

I write and engrave

My aim

Was to face this

No more fear

No more chasing

I stay with

The feeling

Inside

My mind

Chorus

I'm just trying to find a new day

We live like it's a movie

But I don't know

But I don't know

Verse 3

Where to go

Where I'm headed

Where to slow

Down

I think you know now

You're someone special

So it don't matter

If we buy

Or it's a rental

If it's meant to

Be it's meant to

I just wanna find time

And spend it all with you

I keep doing

What I do

Cause one love

One life

One night

With someone special

If it's meant to be

Yeah

It's meant to

Maybe we don't

Need the answers

Maybe life just

Needs a chance first

Maybe all these

Broken pieces

Still become

What we believe in

So I'll keep going

Through the grey

Still trying

To find a new day

Pre-Chorus

Cause I know I'll

Find my way

Through the pain

All these pages

I write and engrave

My aim

Was to face this

No more fear

No more chasing

I stay with

The feeling

Inside

My mind

Outro

Cause I know I'll

Find my way

Through the pain

Trying to find

A new day

Trying to find

A new day
