Overwhelmed is an interesting story. Much like life, our feelings don’t always come from the same place. For this song, that was very much so the case for Matty G. This song is about his experiences with many people. Those who think the song is about them, it’s not about them. Those who think it’s n...
Said I told you
I don’t want this feeling
Overwhelmed by everything you tell me
All these lies are so depressing
Said I told you
I don’t want this feeling
Overwhelmed by everything you tell me
All these lies are so depressing
Said I never get a break
I just wanna love
I feel like I ruin what I touch
They can’t get enough
I’ve been up to much
They been doing nothing
I’ll sleep when I’m dead
But that’s my issue
I just cry so many tears
But I don’t evеr need a tissue
Man I’m blessed
I thank god bеcause he takes away my stress
I just solve my problems
Putting on that bullet-proof vest yuh
I feel like a monster I’m a zombie
Never get sleep but I’m never tardy
I’m in the studio
Writing this poetry
Honestly it's one of my hobbies aye
Bringing the heat like wasabi
I’m getting green on goblin'
I’m pullin’ out in the canyon
Feel like it’s Batman and Robin
How long til I stop talking
Aye
Sister in Tennessee vibin'
I know why I’m still fighting
Imma get my goals
Who knows
Everybody on the road
But I feel it from my head to me toes
Let’s go
I never really understand how I made a difference
Contemplate my worth by making bigger life decisions
They’re just jealous ‘cause they cannot see my
Kinda visions
I said I told you that I cry when I talk about my feelings
Said I told you
I don’t want this feeling
Overwhelmed by everything you tell me
All these lies are so depressing
Said I told you
I don’t want this feeling
Overwhelmed by everything you tell me
All these lies are so depressing
You can act like everything is gonna stay the same
It doesn’t matter what you say because I know you’ve changed
I’m overwhelmed with social pressure ‘cause I used to play my music everywhere I went
But months have passed I had no stage
My anxiety keeps growing every minute
I’ve got 22 assignments up at midnight tryna finish
I need more time in the day but every thought I have is vivid
I don’t wanna lie to you but I just wanna boost my image
I don’t get it
Man I opened up
I told you bout my problem
For a day or so I guess
I thought you’d actually helped me solve it
When I did it
It just didn’t work
I cried another hour
I can’t take it anymore
Wonder when it will be ours
I promise you I’m never gonna tap uh
Tryna get money pre-tax
I just wanna go party
But you don’t want that
I’m sorry but I want my bag aye
Imma go make another track aye
Get a verse then I run it right back aye
One sec gotta have a relapse
Can’t change what I’ve done in the past
Said I told you
I don’t want this feeling
Overwhelmed by everything you tell me
All these lies are so depressing
Said I told you
I don’t want this feeling
Overwhelmed by everything you tell me
All these lies are so depressing
