“Incognito”, the intro track to “What You Were Meant to Be”, sets the tone of the album with me questioning my values and worth as a person. Throughout the time I was writing this song, I was in a very dark place and I really want to make a change to give myself purpose. Although I overcame the obst...
[Verse 1]
Just when I thought it was over
Here I am again
Clueless as to what I am
Slowly sinking into quicksand
Time keeps moving on too quickly
As it progresses I feel more empty
Those easy times were so long ago
To go back is what I wish the most
Cause rightfully I can't take it anymore
No matter how much I just try to ignore
The thoughts that are circling all around me keep on pushing me
Dammit they're feeding me more
I want this to work out
But no matter what I try to do this shit is just leaving me sore
I'm done with being told that I have a chance
When I got none at all
I'm a hopeless casе
Life don't feel the same
I kеpt chasing fame, but can't see the way
I can't keep up in this lane
I just want peace in my brain
Done with playing this game
I gotta fight back so my thoughts will never drive me insane
[Hook]
I'm going off the grid, I need to find a way
So I can get a clearer image of my face
I'm so sick and tired of this empty state
I just wanna get out of this horrible place
Where do I go now?
Do I even have a purpose to this world?
I'm drifting apart from you
Why I feel this way I don't have a clue
[Verse 2]
I can't get a grip of myself
I feel like my health is constantly declining
What are these thoughts that I feel inside me?
The voices in my head don't act too kindly
They just always slip by me
Telling me I'm a bad friend, that I only bring sadness
It hurts cause It don't feel the same anymore
So I keep on growing this pain in my soul
The question of my purpose keeps getting bigger
And my light that guides me is now getting dimmer
I want to give up, but I gotta push it like a winner
It's so damn conflicting, just feel like I lost everything
My motivation going down the drain
Think my connections don't feel the same
I'm in need of change
Goddammit I got to get out of this cage
I'm sorry for the distance
I can explain, but I understand if u don't wanna listen
It's different now, so I think it might be too late
I just need more time, to get myself defined
I want to move forward cause I no longer want to stay behind
[Hook]
I'm going off the grid, I need to find a way
So I can get a clearer image of my face
I'm so sick and tired of this empty state
I just wanna get out of this horrible place
Where do I go now?
Do I even have a purpose to this world?
I'm drifting apart from you
Why I feel this way I don't have a clue
[Outro]
Take me away
Take me away
