Lyrics[]
Nini:
How can somethin' shake up every dream I hoped for?
Wakin' up to everything around me turned cold, mm-hmm-mm
Don't wanna go back to second-guessin' my world
But all I left behind has got me feelin' so torn, mm-hmm-mm
Am I takin' it for granted?
Everything that I've been granted
I keep lyin' awake with these dreams in the dead of the night
'Cause somethin' don't feel right
Will I take it all for granted?
And be leavin' empty-handed?
Oh, I feel shaken, everything's changin' within me
It feels so dramatic how erratic I think
Chasin' everything but leave the one that chased me, ah-ah-ah
So much movin' forward just to take a step back
When all I ever wanted I already had, mm-hmm-mm
Am I takin' it for granted?
Everything that I've been granted
I keep lyin' awake with these dreams in the dead of the night
'Cause somethin' don't feel right
I won't take it all for granted
And be leavin' empty-handed
Oh, I feel shaken, everything's changin' within me
Let my heart lead me home
'Cause I can't do this anymore
Tryna be somebody else
If I never left, I'd never know
Just how far I didn't have to go
To finally feel like myself
Am I takin' it for granted?
Everything that I've been granted
I keep lyin' awake with these dreams in the dead of the night
'Cause somethin' don't feel right
I won't take it all for granted
And be leavin' empty-handed
Oh, I feel shaken, everything's changin' within me
Am I takin' it for granted?
