The Ambition

Live the American dream with billboards picturing me
My name on Hollywood Boulevard
(Want it so much)
LA state of mind, I'm never satisfied, 'cause I want number one
Doesn't everyone?
(Want it so much, much)

So, I was up late the other night
Comparing myself to others' lives
Scrolling up and down my phone
What does she have that I don't?
My dreams so big, they're supersized
I chase them like I chase the light
I could live a simple life

But that's the thing with the ambition (want it so much)
Everything's a competition (so out of touch)
Yeah, it got me a lot, but that's not good enough
I wanna be lo-lo-loved
I live and learn the hard way (want it so much)
Yeah, it's a chronic heartbreak (so out of touch)
No, it never stops, I wanna be your star
I wanna be lo-lo-loved

Lo-loved, loved, lo-o-oved

Raise on validation, consumed by aspiration
Numbers meaning more than words
But what's it worth?
(Can't help how I feel, it's human nature)

Millions of people listening
Soul-driven, couldn't live in it
Didn't appreciate it then
Wish I could go back again
My dreams so big, they're supersized
I chase them like I chase the light
I could live a simple life

But that's the thing with the ambition (want it so much)
Everything's a competition (so out of touch)
Yeah, it got me a lot, but that's not good enough
I wanna be lo-lo-loved
I live and learn the hard way (want it so much)
Yeah, it's a chronic heartbreak (so out of touch)
No, it never stops, I wanna be your star
I wanna be lo-lo-loved

See, I've been doing this long enough to be scarred from what I've learned before (ooh)
But that doesn't mean I wanna stop wanting more and more
I try to push it away, but at the end of the day, it's the world to me
I'll keep breaking my heart if I can be your star (ooh)
If I can be lo-lo-loved

That's the thing with the ambition (want it so much)
Everything's a competition (so out of touch)
Yeah, it got me a lot, but that's not good enough
I wanna be lo-lo-loved (I wanna be loved)
I live and learn the hard way (want it so much)
Yeah, it's a chronic heartbreak (so out of touch)
No, it never stops, I wanna be your star
I wanna be lo-lo-loved

Lo-loved, loved, lo-o-o-o-oved
