They say it's lonely at the top
But they don't tell you why
It's cause you can finally see
All the truth behind the lies
Every hand that helped you up
Was marking where to strike
Now you're standing at the peak
But at what price?
Time moves different at the top
Clock keeps ticking but the world stops
Everybody wants to be here
Till they see what being here costs
Yeah the air is getting thinner
And these walls keep closing in and
I can't tell if I'm the winner
Or just lost in what I'm winning
Climbing to the top was the dream right? (dream right...)
That's what they all said...
Keep reaching for that street light
How the air gets thin and your mind starts to see lies
In every conversation, hidden agendas in plain sight
Same faces different masks, keeping up the disguise
Until the spotlight hit, then they changed like-
Look, let me break it down for you piece by piece.
How success becomes the prison that don't give you peace.
They tell you "chase your dreams" but they leave out the part.
Where your dreams start chasing you, tearing you apart.
Every accomplishment becomes another wall.
That separates you from the people who watched you fall.
They say "you changed" but they don't understand.
That staying the same was never part of the plan.
But maybe they're right... (maybe I'm not me)
Maybe success is just another mask I can't see.
Through the fog of everything I thought I wanted.
Now I'm haunted by the ghost of who I started.
Back when authentic meant more than statistics,
And friendship wasn't measured in strategic logistics.
Now I'm sitting at the peak but I can't breathe.
Is this success or just sophisticated grief?
Is this success or just sophisticated grief?
They say it's lonely at the top
But they don't tell you why
It's cause you can finally see
All the truth behind the lies
Every hand that helped you up
Was marking where to strike
Now you're standing at the peak
But at what price?
Success is like a mirror that shows you everything.
You never wanted to see about yourself.
And now I'm staring at my reflection.
Wondering if I'm looking at who I am.
Or who I became trying to prove.
I could be more than what they said I was.
"But maybe being more
Meant becoming less of who I was supposed to be"
