[Verse 1]

I wasn't supposed to make it, life was playing with my head

Survived a mental breakdown, probably should've left me dead

Betrayed by all the people who I called my closest friends

I felt like I might fall over the edge

I went from living on couches and swinging hammers for rent

To sharing houses and ghettos with rats and roaches instead

I was ready to end it, too tired to get up again

Then wrote my first hit record with my last cigarette

Now wе're here, I'm so insecure, everyone is insincere

If money talks, then it makes sense why I hear devils in my ears

Thought my fears would disappear, they amplified by people's cheers

Now I go to therapy 'cause I'm no longer drinking beer

It's hard to see things clear through all the tears, feel like I need to squint

Anxiety when I was broke, depression now that I am rich

How'd I go from lonely kid whose only wish was pay the rent

To working so absurdly, never see my family or my friends?

[Chorus]

Hey, spaceman, how's the moon?

Was it worth everything you lost? Do you like the view?

You aim for the stars, wait in the dark

The space take away all the weight in your heart

Hey, spaceman, if you had to choose

[Verse 2]

I was born to win and bred to lose, struggled with the weed and booze

Couldn't seem to keep a job, my dreams were just a weak excuse

The money from my parents was enough to keep me fed

They went in debts, so I could try to be famous 'fore I was dead

Our relationships were ruined, they got borderline abusive

I was sacrificing everything and focusing on music

I was homeless out on tour, I was so broke and shit was stupid

Guess I'm lucky that I blew before I blew it, yeah

Now I'm famous, shit's so dangerous, lucky dad made me courageous

I thought everything would change, but I'm still going through some changes

Finally figured out the basics, then it all got complicated

I wish someone would've told me that I'd hate this, yeah

I'm getting threatened by strangers, bulletproof vest on me daily

Feel like I'm 'bout to go crazy, tryna exceed expectations

How'd I go from praying tons that things would finally start to go

To getting here at last and only wanting to go home?

[Chorus]

Hey, spaceman, how's the moon?

Was it worth everything you lost? Do you like the view?

You aim for the stars, wait in the dark

The space take away all the weight in your heart

Hey, spaceman, if you had to choose

[Bridge]

I always loved the stars, thought I'd be happy way up there

They didn't look that far; if they were, I didn't care

I built a rocket ship and blasted off, but now I'm scared

I thought I needed space, but I need air

[Chorus]

Hey, spaceman, how's the moon?

Was it worth everything you lost? Do you like the view?

You aim for the stars, wait in the dark

The space take away all the weight in your heart

Hey, spaceman, if you had to choose
