[Intro]
Yeah
[Verse 1]
Same position in and out of stace
Happiness is such a foreign place
It's so much different than I expected
You might hate the music
But you must respect it
All the hours writing and my time invested
Now the plays' doubled but I must address that
There are many times somebody heard the message
Got me second-guessing if my life direction is sure aligned with the music
I thought about quitting like maybe this story was meant to be finished
"I'm stupid for thinking my talent was different
I should get a degree, just to fit in the system"
I walked into class, sat at a desk
Put on my headphones and drifted away
I should be taking a test, but my only thought was the get in the booth and betray
[Bridge]
The burning feeling in my chest
The reason my drive's different from the rest
The place where I sink deep into the depths
Of a mind so lost, that I had to reset
Forget all the past, forget all the stress
I'm lucky to be here and not depressed
Some people would judge and never accept
That maybe this moment is right in my grasp
[Verse 2]
Give me a second to breathe, gather my thoughts
Genuine people are so far gone
Nice guy, til' you piss me off
There's a certain line you never wanna cross
Gave enough chances, done playing games
Many people leave, but the pressure stays
If you hate the kid, but you press play every time I drop, you're a fan
It's crazy to watch strangers support all the moves that I make
When the ones that I loved wouldn't give me a chance
I got a few that have always been here
I got a vision you never would steer
The waves of the ocean do bring me fear
Drown out my sorrows and punch out the mirror
Til' my hands start to bleed and I never know why
Why I always feel deeply inside
Tell me why pain makes me feel more alive than my happiness does
Success is a pressure that brings me disgust
Like what's the point of getting bigger if there was no one you could trust
Took some time, had to self reflect
Nothing good comes easy
Album's coming soon, go alert the press
In the studio's where you'll see me, yeah
[Hook]
I got this burning feeling in my chest
The reason my drive's different from the rest
The place where I sink deep into the depths
Of a mind so lost, that I had to reset
Forget all the past, forget all the stress
I'm lucky to be here and not depressed
Some people would judge and never accept
That maybe this moment is right in my grasp
[Verse 3]
I like the rain
It must be the noise or the comfort it brings
Maybe it's drowning the static and things in the attic that I just keep trapped in my brain
Hiding the fact that I'm broken in pieces
And constantly searching for some sort of reason
I get me a gold, and I go out immediate
The highs never last
I'm just numb to feelin' of feelin' like I'm not enough all the time
Been ashamed of the person I'm being
Becoming someone I don't know on the regular shouldn't be normal
I win but I still feel defeated
I'm always just running in circles and honestly, I don't know what's going on
Hatred will fill but I learned how to deal with the feeling of not knowing where I belong
Someone go get me a medic, I think I need meds
And I hear it from mothers but just say forget it
I'm glued to my phone tryna cope with the pressure of thinking
My fans without leaving a second, to final response
And I'm scrolling my life away tryna please everybody but myself
And everyone knows, but I chose to ignore it
I think that it's time that I do what is best for my health
[Hook]
I got this burning feeling in my chest
The reason my drive's different from the rest
The place where I sink deep into the depths
Of a mind so lost, that I had to reset
Forget all the past, forget all the stress
I'm lucky to be here and not depressed
Some people would judge and never accept
That maybe this moment is right in my grasp
