Anything Outside

(앨범: Wilderness - 2020)

What if I'm just 100% me
Doing exactly what I want and
I'm just living my life
Like I'm only listening to me, myself, and I

Let me take you back
Summer break driving to the lake with my dad
George Strait CD all we had
We played Amarillo by Morning
Until it stopped working
Then one Christmas day
I got an iPod shuffle
Went on iTunes searching with my older brother
That's when we found Justin Timberlake
Knew every lyric the next day

So when I started making music
It was something in between
People didn't get what I was doing
Saying it's too country for pop and too pop for country

But what if I'm just 100% me
Doing exactly what I want and
I'm just living my life
Like I'm only listening to me, myself, and I
Yeah, I'm gonna stay on my own path
Never look back
Only listen to the voice that's in my mind
Yeah, I think it's time to stop giving a shit
About anything outside

I can hear them now
Oh, my god he's rapping
He just built his own country music casket
That shit will never get played on the radio
His dreams of playing a stadium, there they go
But guess what this is the real me
I want to be authentic and tell my stories
And I'm not afraid of a bass drop mixed with a banjo
Even if it does flop

But what if I'm just 100% me
Doing exactly what I want and
I'm just living my life
Like I'm only listening to me, myself, and I
Yeah, I'm gonna stay on my own path
Never look back
Only listen to the voice that's in my mind
Yeah, I think it's time to stop giving a shit
About anything outside...

So if you're listening to this
Feeling like you've got no options left
I hope this gives you the courage to ditch
What anybody else thinks
And just ask yourself

What if I'm just 100% me
Doing exactly what I want and
I'm just living my life
Like I'm only listening to me, myself, and I
Yeah, I'm gonna stay on my own path
Never look back
Only listen to the voice that's in my mind
Yeah, I think it's time to stop giving a shit
About anything outside...
