Feeling like I keep stepping on land mines
While they keep blowing smoke.
Like everything I do can bring no bigger hope,
I'll fight through the storm
And feel so alone
Just to keep standing up , just waiting for someone.
I've waded through the masses
And I've accepted what my past is
I'm just never enough
I'm not worth my time
I'm done thinking like this.

Don't ever forget you're better than who you are.
Your smile lifts me up like the night time stars.
If I can bring you up without feeling down,
Then maybe one day I can leave this crown.

King of the broken with a scepter to match
It looks like my mind it's so warped and scratched
But what makes it different than intentions at glance
Is I'm willing to grow and I'm ready to chance.
You're never enough
You'll never have good luck
If that's what they say then that's what they say,
But just know this, they don't understand "different" anyway.
Something perfect doesn't need affection,
Because it'd then hate talking to imperfection.

Don't ever forget you're better than who you are.
Your smile lifts me up like the night time stars.
If I can bring you up without feeling down,
Then maybe one day I can leave this crown.
