A Message For Myself

(album: Mirror Might Steal Your Charm - 2018)

Generally I am a pretty happy person
Not a lot to say in that department
But if I had a lot to say
You probably would've heard it already
I'm driven to drive fast and get it done
And so are my counter parts
It's all about putting yourself
In people's shoes, you know?
I wanna go fast but I can't go too fast
Almost like I'm driving on black ice
I've gotta be careful
Or else I'll slip and fall all the way down

Keep in mind try not to hide
Everyone looks deep inside

Plenty of people living in this world
Yeah you get what you envision living in the west
Won't take freedom like medicine
Yeah I take it as a gift I had nothing to do with

Take me to a place just like this
With loved ones experience bliss, yeah

Fear is like a sickness, yeah you can't jog away
Afraid of what you've never seen but heard it isn't great
Now we're on the best one, can't take this shit away
Don't take a life for pocket change or skies are turning grey

A lot of the time when you fall down
There is someone who can pick you back up
And help you get back on your feet
In my life right now I have that
And that makes me a lucky person

Some people don't have that
And it makes me wonder how the world works
People can't always have ideal situations
Served on a silver platter
And others have to fight harder
I guess it all depends on how hard you fight
Maybe you're being punished for your past life
Whatever the case is, I definitely feel for you
Because in the end, everyone has problems
And life tries to teach you something
No matter how many times you've lived
So keep in mind that everyone is equal
Nothing you do makes you more human than anyone else

End of the day, [?]
This wide world that we share
Yeah

Plenty of people living in this world
Yeah you get what you envision living in the west
Won't take freedom like medicine
Yeah I take it as a gift I had nothing to do with

Fear for [?] for your life
Till the day I justify
Yeah

Fear is like a sickness, yeah you can't jog away
Afraid of what you've never seen but heard it isn't great
Now we're on the best one, can't take this shit away
Don't take a life for pocket change or skies are turning grey
