lyrics

I feel so displaced now
I took off
Running down the boulevard of dreams, or so I thought

Curious to see if a detour could save me time
Could elevate me, but my priorities realigned

You were the definition of temptation
I took a bite
Suspended my journey halted like a DONT WALK sign

I got tangled in the traffic jam inside my mind
I dismissed my dream, but now I swear to you I've gotta try

Ooh, I gotta do what I gotta do
You gotta do what you gotta do
Gotta do what I gotta do
You gotta do what you gotta do

So now I stand at the crossroads and I'm so confused
You came and turned me around and I followed just like a fool
Gotta find a way to eliminate distractions
Gotta find a way back to the main attraction
Yeah

I was on my way then lost my memory
Made me forget there's somewhere that I'm supposed to be
Now that I'm so lost and frozen
Kicking myself for choosing the boulevard I've chosen

Ooh, I gotta do what I gotta do
You gotta do what you gotta do
Gotta do what I gotta do
You gotta do what you gotta do

Ooh, I gotta do what I gotta do
You gotta do what you gotta do
Gotta do what I gotta do
You gotta do what you gotta do

I feel so lost I'm all turned around
Feel so low I'm back underground
