## Lyrics

[Chorus: Olivia Holt]

Suddenly the world stands still

Everything's right

It's like the universe aligns

Pinch me, is this for real?

I gotta know

It's like we made our own paradise

Travelled like a million miles just to be here

It's like we finally made it

Suddenly the world stands still

And it feel, feels like paradise

[Verse 1: Brandon Beal]

Yeah, ha, let's take it back to 1995

I was just a youngin' tryna get my act right

Back then, who cared what we did in school?

All we ever really tried to do was act the fool, sorry Ma

I told you that I would get it together, you know

And thank you for helping me pay my rent in New York

And back then I promised you I would never be broke

We would never be broke, we would never be

[Pre-Chorus: Brandon Beal]

Suddenly the world stands still

Think it's just a record, this is just to keep it real

Spend my whole life tryna get it on my own

Back then, who woulda ever known? Now you know

[Chorus: Olivia Holt]

Suddenly the world stands still

Everything's right

It's like the universe aligns

Pinch me, is this for real?

I gotta know

It's like we made our own paradise

Travelled like a million miles just to get here

It's like we finally made it

Suddenly the world stands still

And it feels, feels like paradise

Feels like paradise

[Verse 2: Brandon Beal]

I was 20 years old, one way flight

I was concrete dreaming New York City lights

I was all about the green, all up on the scene

Didn't know 2 years later, I would meet my queen, sexy ma

But I was too young to get it together, you know

And just like a game of poker, I played with your heart

And back then, you promised me you'd be there from the start

You was there from the start and still here for me

[Pre-Chorus: Brandon Beal]

Suddenly the world stands still

And right in the centre of it, that's our Beni Beal

I just see 'em smiling at me, big brown eyes

My homies asked me, "How's that daddy life?" Paradise

[Chorus: Olivia Holt]

Suddenly the world stands still

Everything's right

It's like the universe aligns

Pinch me, is this for real?

I gotta know

It's like we made our own paradise

Travelled like a million miles just to be here

It's like we finally made it

Suddenly the world stands still

And it feels, feels like paradise

Feels like paradise, oh, oh

[Bridge: Olivia Holt & Brandon Beal]

So many times I cried me a river

Now every time I look in the mirror

I see somebody that fought for whatever is right

Oh, I been through the pain now, see so much clearer

Nothing can stop me, I will take on whatever

Oh, oh, ready, set go

[Chorus: Olivia Holt]

Suddenly the world stands still

Everything's right

It's like the universe aligns

Pinch me, is this for real?

I gotta know

It's like we made our own paradise

Travelled like a million miles just to be here

It's like we finally made it

Suddenly the world stands still

And it feels, feels like paradise

Feels like paradise, oh, oh
