I've been seeking validation like ever since graduation
My fate is constantly wasted on instant gratification
I lack a healthy structure
My head is basically lightning and thunder mad at each other
I used to fight with my brother, but now I fight back the tears
From all the pain and the fear I felt from over the years
I'm starting to see it clear, I'm starting to let it go
It's hard, but I've learned the ropes
Since stepping out off my casket, I thought you deserved to know
Can you dig me up from underneath?
I don't need your prayers or sympathy
I'm looking for the answer
I can't cure the cancer
Have I had enough yet, enough yet?
Have I had enough yet, enough yet?
'Cause I've been in enough debt, enough debt
And now I'm on my last breath, my last breath
So can you dig me up yet, up yet?
My shallow breathing is teeming with self-doubt
I do my best, just tryna figure it out
I've spent a lot of life thinking something is wrong
I've spent a lot of life just trying to play along
Courage is key inside this world that we live in
My second guessing's not impressive, it's a physical sickness
It keeps me buried in the dirt, yeah, I can taste my defeat
I used to think it made me special, now it makes me feel weak
Can you dig me up from underneath?
I don't need your prayers or sympathy
I'm looking for the answer
I can't cure the cancer
Have I had enough yet, enough yet?
Have I had enough yet, enough yet?
'Cause I've been in enough debt, enough debt
And now I'm on my last breath, my last breath
So can you dig me up yet, up yet?
Walk with me and you'll see, underneath
I'm not who I used to be, I'm not who I used to be
Dig me up from underneath, and you'll see
I'm not who I used to be, I'm not who I used to be
I'm looking for the answer
I can't cure the cancer
Have I had enough yet, enough yet?
Have I had enough yet, enough yet?
'Cause I've been in enough debt, enough debt
And now I'm on my last breath, my last breath
So can you dig me up yet, up yet?
Have I had enough yet, enough yet?
'Cause I've been in enough debt, enough debt
And now I'm on my last breath, my last breath
So can you dig me up yet, up yet?
