Future Self

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I write a happy song, but it won't come out

Good thinking going wrong 'cause I'm breathing doubt

My mind is sleeping when I'm busy at work

Stayed up too late on Reddit, I'm introvert

I'm just doing the best that I can do

Oh, I don't even know who I am (hey)

As I'm running through the demons

I'm still looking for my future self (hey)

All these shadows trying to catch me

I'm surviving for my future self (hey)

(Hey)

I think I'll play some smash bros to pass the time (hey)

'Cause spacing out is always good for my mind (hey)

So many problems that I need to forget (hey)

Do some more therapy, so I can reset (hey)

I'm just doing the best that I can do

Oh, I don't even know who I am (hey)

As I'm running through the demons

I'm still looking for my future self (hey)

All these shadows trying to catch me

I'm surviving for my future self (hey)

(Hey)

Oh, whoa, oh

For my future self (hey)

Oh, whoa, oh

For my future self (hey)

I'm just doing the best that I can do

Oh, I don't even know who I am (hey)

Fate ain't showin' me things I need to see

Oh, I don't even know who I am (hey)

As I'm running through the demons

I'm still looking for my future self (hey)

All these shadows trying to catch me

I'm surviving for my future self (hey)

Oh, whoa, oh

For my future self (hey)

Oh, whoa, oh

For my future self (hey)

(Hey)

Keep going

(Hey)
