Always felt a need to impress
Whether in front of girls or a benchpress
Never could quite fit in
Feel like I stand out even when Im sitting
Insecurities pressed ******* my conscious
What that takes me through is just viscous
Ive tried to overcome it all and open a third eye
Then I realized perfection itself is a lie
Now its just a matter of convincing myself
Letting go of the past and starting a new life
When everyone and Everything tries to shut you down
You just have to dust the dirt off
And pick yourself up off the ground

In a different zone
Lost touch with people I’ve known
Moving in a different direction
Not in the search of perfection
I gave up that dream as soon as I realized
Everyone’s faulty and that’s what makes us prized
To learn from mistakes and become wiser
Maybe lend a hand and be nicer
Keep moving regardless
No matter what pain, sorrow, stress
Hard times remind me of my mistakes
Glad I’m far away from these fakes
I know Imma make it no matter what it takes
They can keep looking down on me
They might even knock me down on one knee
But I’m not going out without a fight
Life’s a *****, she never played me right
