[Verse 1]
I know I don't know what I need
I'm well aware I push the blame effortlessly
Can never stomach my own pride
My inspiration left my side

Why can't I win? (Need help, I can't explain)
(Just say it to my face)
[Outro]
Need help, I can't explain
Just say it to my face
Need help, I can't explain
Just say it to my—
