Lyrics
I woke this mornin' undecided My demons takin' over my life, yeah Sooner or later it's a family divided These patterns gettin' hard to hide, yeah They say I should be satisfied They tell me I got the world, but that's a lie I wished the way I feel could be pacified, sometimes I wish I was somebody Anybody but myself Oh, I wish I was somebody Anybody but myself If I told you I'm 'bout to break would you look at me different? Character out of place, would I lose your attention? Let me know your intentions, cause lately I been watchin' everybody It's apparent that transparency never seen monotony Got off of tour, lookin' for closure Mixin' emotion of bein' grateful and feelin' like some of y'all gettin' over What's a puppet on stage, singin' and dancin' ablaze? But trading his worth, distorted by the money that's made A slave with a verse, I feel like Prince Rogers I feel liberation is free, I feel I should miss the Oscars Are you celebrating me as the artist or just a profit? A question I have for the ones around me that's turnin' toxic My lungs been heavy from all the smokescreen boobytraps Reminiscin' on what it was, and knowin' that this ain't that I vision a rock in a hard place Hope my daughter isn't born with a piece of my heartbreak You know stress carries on and your kids reap the mistakes that you made And I admit that I can be dismissive if I can't relate And I admit that I only commit to start playin' games And I admit that I'm bad at talkin' myself out of shame But who's to blame when the crowds stop cheerin' and they passin' dirty looks? I now understand that I'll never be understood
