Verse 1
In a small town, on a quiet street,
Jake dreams of fast cars and living elite.
He's got a cozy home and a loving wife,
But he's scrolling through pages, wanting that life.
Verse 2
Across the town, under city lights,
Lily's got fame and endless nights.
Yet she peers over fences, into quiet yards,
Longing for mornings without the cards.
Chorus
But the grass ain't greener, just a different shade,
Every rose has its thorn, every debt’s gotta be paid.
Dance in your meadow, find joy in your own parade,
The grass ain't greener, just embrace your own glade.
Verse 3
Tom’s at the top, he's made his mark,
Yet he gazes at stars from his rooftop dark.
Dreams of simple pleasures, a laugh, a song,
Misses the peace he had all along.
Verse 4
Sue sells seashells down by the shore,
Rich in the breeze, in cash, she's poor.
Yet millionaires envy her salty air breath,
While she admires their wealth unto death.
Chorus
But the grass ain't greener, just a different shade,
Every rose has its thorn, every debt’s gotta be paid.
Dance in your meadow, find joy in your own parade,
The grass ain't greener, just embrace your own glade.
Bridge
Look left, look right, it’s all the same,
Different struggles, just another name.
Count your blessings, start today,
Find your sunshine, love your own way.
Chorus
But the grass ain't greener, just a different shade,
Every rose has its thorn, every debt’s gotta be paid.
Dance in your meadow, find joy in your own parade,
The grass ain't greener, just embrace your own glade.
