Jacob Sartorius – Selfish lyrics
I heard it takes
Ten thousand hours
To be the master of your craft
One hundred ways
That I could change
My attitude keeps me on track
To defend from forces out of my control
I put in the work 'cause I think you should know the truth
The truth

That I wanna be more than our yesterdays
'Cause there's just too much to lose
I wanna be more than a grain of sand
On the beach, I want the view
I wanna be the one, one, one in a million
Call me selfish for you
I wanna be the one, one, one in a million
Call me selfish for you

I heard they say
My generation
Is all 'bout ADD
But in the past
They didn't have
Facebook Twitter Snap and IG
Distractions are everywhere as far as I can see
The patience I got you is taking all of me, me
Count on me

I wanna be more than our yesterdays
'Cause there's just too much to lose
I wanna be more than a grain of sand
On the beach, I want the view
I wanna be the one, one, one in a million
Call me selfish for you
I wanna be the one, one, one in a million
Call me selfish for you

Life is the shortest, long road
Yeah, ever known
I wanna have something new
That I can show, oh

I wanna be more than our yesterdays
'Cause there's just too much to lose
I wanna be more than a grain of sand
On the beach, I want the view
I wanna be the one, one, one in a million
Call me selfish for you
I wanna be the one, one, one in a million
Call me selfish for you
