It was good to be there in the bright lights, mmm
But I lost good friends under the spotlight, woah
Imagine if everybody knew your name
And they had nothing to say, nothing nice to say
It was good to be living up the high life, woah
But the comedowns harder in the headlights, woah
Everybody tells you, you should play the game
But there's only you to play, there's only you to play
And I tried
I set fire to the glory
I set fire to the dream
I set fire to the only thing
That lead me from the streets
Don't tell me it's over, cause I don't want to believe
Cause now I've opened my eyes and I have found a way to breathe
The truth sets me free
I broke my back to make a breakthrough, mmm
I lost my mind, look what it came to, oh
I had to lose it all so I could understand, woah
I was just a boy in the shadow of a man
I set fire to the glory
I set fire to the dream
I set fire to the only thing
That lead me from the streets
Don't tell me it's over, cause I don't want to believe
Cause now I've opened my eyes and I have found a way to breathe
Oh, the truth sets me free
Oh, the truth sets me free
I set fire to the glory
I set fire to the dream
I set fire to the only thing
That lead me from the streets
Don't tell me it's over, cause I don't want to believe
Cause now I've opened my eyes and I have found a way to breathe
Oh, the truth sets me free
Oh, the truth sets me free
It sets me free
