  • Tryna set myself up for the win
    Some people got a dream that's so much bigger than the town they're in
    So give me love, give me love, give me peace, give me peace of mind
    I know that there's an ought to a start and I need a little help with mine

    California, don't let me down
    Seems of golden
    But there's struggle all around
    Sunset Jesus, came to me
    He once was a waiter, now he's a savior making money on the street

    My dreams are made of gold
    My heart's been broken and I'm down along the road
    But I know, my dreams keep fading 'til I get old
    Breathe for a minute, breathe for a minute
    I'll be okay

    Staring at a billboard from the bus
    Looking at the faces, thinking that could be anyone of us
    So give me hope, give me hope, give me hope on this lonely ride
    'Cause I know one day, I will be the one in the sky

    California, don't let me down
    Seems of golden
    But there's struggle all around
    Sunset Jesus, came to me
    He once was a waiter, now he's a savior making money on the street

    My dreams are made of gold
    My heart's been broken and I'm down along the road
    But I know, my dreams keep fading 'til I get old
    Breathe for a minute, breathe for a minute

    My dreams are made of gold
    My heart's been broken and I'm down along the road
    But I know, my dreams keep fading 'til I get old
    Breathe for a minute, breathe for a minute
    I'll be okay

    My dreams are made of gold
    My heart's been broken and I'm down along the road
    But I know, my dreams keep fading 'til I get old
    Breathe for a minute, breathe for a minute
    I'll be okay Writer/s: Carl Anthony Falk, Dhani John Lennevald, Gavin DeGraw, Michael Robert Henrion Posner, Rami Yacoub, Sandro Cavazza, Savan Harish Kotecha, Tim Bergling
