Am I Wrong
Nicholas Galitzine Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Am I wrong
For thinking out the box from where I stay?
Uh, am I wrong
For saying that I choose another way?

Oh, I ain't tryna do what everybody else doin'
Just 'cause everybody doin' what they all do
If one thing I know, I'll fall, but I grow
I'm walking down this road of mine, this road that I call home

So am I wrong?
For thinking that we could be something for real? (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh)
But no, no, no that's wrong
Now am I wrong
For tryna reach the things that I can't see? (Ow)
Oh, that's just how I feel (ooh, ooh, ooh)
That's just how I feel (ooh, ooh, ooh))
That's just how I feel
Tryna reach the things that I can't see (ooh, ooh, ooh)

Am I trippin'?
Am I? For having a vision?
My prediction
I'ma be on the top of the world

Hope you, hope you don't look back
Always do what you decide
Don't let them control your life, that's just how I feel (oh, oh, oh)
Fight for yours and don't let go
Don't let them compare you, no
Don't worry, you're not alone, that's just how I feel (that's just how we feel)
That's just how I feel

If you tell me I'm wrong, wrong
I don't wanna be right, right
If you tell me I'm wrong, wrong
I don't wanna be right (i don't wanna be right)
I don't wanna be right
(Oh, if you tell me I'm wrong, wrong
(If you tell me I'm wrong, wrong) if you tell me I'm wrong
I don't wanna be right, right (i don't wanna be, wanna be right)
If you tell me I'm wrong, wrong (don't tell me I'm wrong, I'm wrong, I'm wrong)
I don't wanna be right

Am I wrong? (Am I wrong?)
For thinking that we could be something for real? (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh)
For real, for real
Now am I wrong? (Am I wrong? Am I wrong?)
For tryna reach the things that I can't see? (Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh)
That's just how I feel (how I feel, how I feel)
Yeah, that's just how I feel (how I feel, how I feel)
That's just how I feel
Tryna reach the things that I can't see (ooh, ooh, ooh)

Am I wrong?
For thinking that we could be something for real? Oh




Now am I wrong?
For tryna reach the things that I can't see?
