U Played Yourself

CHORUS
So, I always play myself
I just can't seem to ask for help
You know... I mean... I felt...
I don't take these things
Too well, well, well, well
Ain't been a bad, bad, bad year
Nothing like last, last, last year
Still, I can't catch my breath here (For real)

VERSE
No, you ain't seen me in a while
No, I been out the way tryna find my smile
Still, tryna fill these lines with letters
And get myself together
And tryna be a better person
'Cause the end be lurking
When the wind blow, it hit real low
Tryna find my placе to glisten
Stopped searching for attеntion, I get it
I ain't even looking for a mention
I'm just tryna use everything I got 'for it's missing

CHORUS
So, I always play myself
I just can't seem to ask for help
You know...I mean... I felt...
I don't take these things
Too well, well, well, well
Ain't been a bad, bad, bad year
Nothing like last, last, last year
Still, I can't catch my breath here for real

VERSE
I stopped doing devotionals a while ago
It's been really eating me up inside, I know
Mind been moving fast while I keep on riding slow
Recovery from the highs & lows
I hold myself sometimes
I can't even find the words to realize
I can't even write the words or find the nouns
I'm holding up while breaking down
It's aching, can't fake it

BRIDGE
I know you know me well
I don't even think you know yourself
You can't even speak up for yourself
So, how are you gonna act like you've been well (For real)

Know you know me well
I don't really think I know myself
I can't even speak up for myself
So, how I'm gonna get my peace to heal (For real)

CHORUS
So, I always play myself
I just can't seem to ask for help
You know, I mean, I felt
I don't take these things
Too well, well, well, well
Ain't been a bad, bad, bad year
Nothing like last, last, last year
Still, I can't catch my breath here

So, I always play myself
I just can't seem to ask for help
You know, I mean, I felt
I don't take these things too well
