Lyrics Holidaze - Lecrae

It's a paradise, and it calls my name
But I can't keep taking holidays

It's a paradox seekin' paradise
Thought I'd try my luck and roll it up like a pair of dice
Took a break from being present in the presence of a lesson
I ain't tryna hear the message, I escape the pain with pleasure, uh
Takin' holidays, eating bolognese
Wearing Prada shades, sippin' Chardonnay, check the Cartier watch
Watch everything in gold chains
Melt down everything and go in flames

Idols livin' in my heart, what's wrong with me?
All I need is time, but time's controlling me
Played the game so long, I know it's no winning
Left the holiday to get some soul healing
Feel like I deserve to have Miami vices
But every fleeting pleasure come with sacrifices
This is not a liberty, it's license
Every holiday got hidden prices, yikes

Hold my heart, hold my face
I spent too long on this vacation
I flew too high, I love this game
But I think it's time to land this plane
No more fireworks, no more cheers
I can't keep that type of pace
It's a paradise, and it calls my name
But I can't keep taking holidays

I can't keep taking holidays, oh
It's a paradise
And it calls my name
But I can't keep taking holidays

Life and time are precious so I live it slowly
Let go of the purp' like it's a new parole
Engine going out, I was losing my drive
The truth is all around, but I'm choosing to lie
Who would've thought I'd be trusted to be a caretaker?
On the beach getting twisted without a hair braider
Laugh now, prepare later, rare flavor, fair savor
Seeking vanity, it's empty, I'm an air chaser

If I had to say it honestly
I was too afraid to face my demons
'Cause I wanted what they promised me
A handful of lies about resting
Don't look at the wreckage, just drink away your depression
You could probably kill your anxiety with possessions
Wrestle for a second before I ignore the message
I don't want the lesson they tryna teach
They offer you the world, best believe, it don't come with peace, capeesh?

Hold my heart, hold my face
I spent too long on this vacation
I flew too high, I love this game
But I think it's time to land this plane
No more fireworks, no more cheers
I can't keep that type of pace
It's a paradise, and it calls my name
But I can't keep taking, I can't keep taking
I can't keep taking holidays

Oh, I can't keep taking holidays, oh
It's a paradise, and it calls my name
But I can't keep taking holidays
