Bitter Sweet by Clue Lyrics
[Verse 1 - Clue]
Back when I was young I used to look up at the sky
And i believed that i could reach the stars so if we tried
We could be the ones to make it clear of all these obstacles
City full of dreams, so we take them by the pocketful
Hoping that we blow up, drinking down that rocket fuel
Drunken off the confidence, thinking we’re unstoppable
We got our eyes so focused on our vision, so its optical
To shine just like the sun, but don’t want it to be prodigal
Theres a bitter sweetness, what a time to be alive
The universe is sheltered by the clouds thats in your mind
So if you open up and take a look at whats inside
Well its amazing what you may just find
I write rhymes in the hope that I can shift the tide
You’re feeling lost within in this ocean? I can be your guide
Step away for the moment just to live your life
I’ll take you all on my journey to the other-side
[Chorus - Louise Smith]
This is all I have
This is all I am
I’m gonna show you all I deserve this
I’m gonna show you all that its worth it
Kick off the ground, and pass the clouds
And not a thing can stop me now
I’m gonna show you all I deserve this
I’m gonna show you all that its worth it
[Verse 2 - Clue]
Back when I was young I used to look up at the sky
And I believed that I could reach the stars, And so I tried
But find it hard to shine in this city full of lighting
Where everybody's trying to make a name like who's the brightest
We look up at our idols, who cast the biggest shadows
Though never sitting idle, we're tryna read the future like a tarot
And everyone is stuck between that Superman and Clark Kent
Tryna start a buzz but wondering where all the sparks end
Lately I've discovered that my alter ego
Is really just a shadow of my faulted ego
And i’m consumed by the idea of making it
And at the time, I find that I ain’t really making shit
But if I never took a chance on a dream
Then that would be a waste of everything I could achieve
I may be taking aim to never find what I am searching
If I burn among the flames and still I tried than it was worth it
[Chorus - Louise Smith]
This is all I have
This is all I am
I’m gonna show you all I deserve this
I’m gonna show you all that its worth it
Kick off the ground, and pass the clouds
And not a thing can stop me now
I’m gonna show you all I deserve this
I’m gonna show you all that its worth it
[Outro - Louise Smith]
This is all I have
This is all I am
I’m gonna show you all I deserve this
I’m gonna show you all that its worth it
Kick off the ground, and pass the clouds
And not a thing can stop me now
I promise you all I'll get through this
I'm gonna show you all I can do this
Back when I was young I used to look up at the sky
And i believed that i could reach the stars so if we tried
We could be the ones to make it clear of all these obstacles
City full of dreams, so we take them by the pocketful
Hoping that we blow up, drinking down that rocket fuel
Drunken off the confidence, thinking we’re unstoppable
