Lyrics

To all my people with a fear of rejection
I encourage you to look a little deeper and ask the question
"Am I happy with the life that I lead,
Or is complacency confusing who I know I could be?"
But at the end of the day
You're the one that has to lay in the bed that you've made
I'm less afraid of making mistakes
And more afraid of playing it safe and just wasting away
Time and time again I try
Time and time again I fail
The odds against me every time
But at least I tried, at least I care
To all my people with a fear of commitment
Stuck in the system with a dream of resistance
It comes down to persistence
And a willingness to fight for a fulfilling existence
But at the end of the day
You're the one that has to live with the decisions you've made
I'm not afraid of making mistakes
I'm more afraid of playing it safe and just wasting away
Time and time again I try
Time and time again I fail
The odds against me every time
But at least I tried, at least I care
I just feel like people don't take risks anymore, man
Everyone wants to keep their head down, lay low, and coast through life
Why is that?
I mean, think about it
How many amazing things were accomplished by people who
Walked in a single-file line and followed all the rules?
How do you expect to change the world
When you can't even get out of your own head?
Yes, you might fail
But even if you lose everything and fall flat on your face
You failed trying to make the world a better place
Isn't that something to be proud of?
Time and time again I try
Time and time again I fail
The odds against me every time
But at least I tried, at least I care
Time and time again I try
Time and time again I fail
The odds against me every time
But at least I tried, at least I care
At least I care
At least I care
At least I care
At least I care
