place for cowards, Malik.
Sometimes I wonder
Where I've been
Who I am
Do I fit in?
Make believin'
Is hard alone
Out here on my own
we're always provin'
Who we are
Always reachin'
For that risin' star
To guide me far
And shine me home
Out here on my own
When I'm down
And feelin' blue
I close my eyes
So I can be with you
Oh, baby, be strong for me
Baby, belong to me
Help me through
Help me need you
Until the morning
sun appears
Making light
of all my fears
I dry the tears
I've never shown
Out here on my own
But when I'm down
and feelin' blue
I close my eyes
so I can be with you
Oh, baby, be strong for me
Baby, belong to me
Help me through
Help me need you
Sometimes I wonder
Where I've been
Who I am
Do I fit in?
I may not win
But I can't be thrown
Out here
On my own
Oh, yeah
Out here
On my own

Malik, what are you doing?

I just wanted to put it in and

Are you wasted yet?

It feels like that.
Yo, check it out.
This is for my homies.
No, don't waste it.
Check it out.
Mike check, one-two.
Turn my headphones up.
Ooh!
Cruisin' down
the street in my six-fo
Jockin' the b*tches
Slappin' the hoes
went to the park
to get the scoop
Knuckleheads out there
cold shootin' some hoops
A car pulls up,
who can it be
A fresh El Camino
rollin' Kilo G
He rolls down his window
and he started to say
It's all about makin' that GTA
'Cause the boys in the hood
are always hard
You come talkin' that trash
we gonna pull your card
Knowin' nothin' in
life but to be legit
Don't quote me, boy,
'cause I ain't said...
Sh*t.
Well, first of all,
I loved the presentation.
Why, thank you. I mean, it's, you
know... It's totally not ready yet.
But, I mean, it's...
The drunkenness,
however...
I was trying to expand
my life experience.
I've never been
wasted before.
Trust me. I'm not
gonna do it again.
Hey, hey,
Jenny, hold up.
Just a dinner. At my dad's
restaurant. I promise.
If you don't have a good
time, I'll stop asking.
I don't understand.
You keep asking me out
and I keep telling you no.
Why do you keep trying?
I don't know. I feel
like if I keep asking,
maybe one of these times,
you'll actually say yes.
Text me the address.
Really?
Yeah, I'll come.
Okay. I'll see you
later then.
Okay. See you later.
Okay, bye.
So, how's school?
Do you think you'll
get what you need?
Will it be enough to get you
into a professional company?
How am I
supposed to know?
You know, Alice,
Dr. Malamed thinks
that your aloofness
is a sign of subclinical depression.
So, are you depressed?
No, Dad. I'm bored
like I always am.
Alice!
Excuse me, sir.
Huh? Oh, I'm with them.
May I take your hat?
No, no...
Are you sure I
can't take your hat?
Who is that?
The opposite of boring.
Hey, baby. How are you?
What's up?
These your parents?
I know,
I know, it's just that...
I've never had to work
this hard in my entire life.
And they don't really tell
you what it's gonna be like.
I don't know why I'm
telling you all of this.
Everything seems to come
so easily to you.
No, that's not true.
I've just... I've been
performing my whole life.
I mean, as soon as I could,
I was out there singing.
I will tell you this,
no one makes as much in
tips as a first grader.
So, you play
the piano, too?
A little. Yeah.
Okay, I want to hear.
I mean, you see me sing all the
time at school. There's no need to...
Yeah, I want to hear something
different. Come on, Marco.
No. Just 'cause
the piano's there...
Just me, you,
and the restaurant.
You're playing for me.
Jenny...
I told you,
you've already seen this.
No! Go on.
Well, what do you
want me to play?
Uh, anything you want.
And we'll see if I'm willing
to give you a tip at the end.
Okay.
Seriously?
Okay.
How about this one?
If I walk,
would you run?
If I stop,
would you come?
If I say
you're the one
would you believe me?
If I ask you to stay
would you show me the way?
Tell me what to say
So you don't leave me
The world is
catching up to you
while you're running away
To chase your dreams
It's time for us
to make a move
'Cause we are asking
one another to change
And maybe I'm not ready
But I'll try for your love
