Lyrics

Not intrigued by nothing knew
No apps or social cues
Are gonna skew how I think or what I view
I'm trying to adapt to these emotions that I feel
Miss sending songs to my sis so she can be the first to hear
I trusted her ears
Now she isn't here
That's a void I did not fear until she wasn't near
I was feeling empty and lost which came at a cost
Business had to run on exhaust, while I mourned the loss
I wanted to cry, I wanted to scream
The place that I wanted to lean, was surviving my worst dream
So I had to toughen up and stiffen my upper lip
To captain a sinking ship, so my parents could mourn their kid
Some days that go by knock me down hard
They say how many times you rise
Defines who you are
Well I'm covered with scars from my head to my toes
Some show on my skin and the rest on my soul
I'm second guessing, working for myself since '010
I'm a slave to my business, I think I want to end
I'd rather punch a clock and have some PTO
Instead of feeling forced to answer emails from my phone
But that ain't the road I chose, so I must change my approach
It's necessary so some weight I can unload
As I reflect, I've always been a wreck
I work my fingers to the bone, to avoid a noose around my neck
I'll do all that I can, to strategize a game plan
Until my lack of faith in man
Is bound to keep me at a stand
But I don't have a side, in the middle is where I ride
Using logic as my guide, with my eyes open wide
Some days that go by knock me down hard
They say how many times you rise
Defines who you are
Well I'm covered with scars from my head to my toes
Some show on my skin and the rest on my soul
