Lyrics

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've ran away from love

It's gettin' hard for me to breathe

'Cause the man that I've been runnin' from

Is inside of me

I tell him: Keep it quiet

So all he does is speak

'Cause he wants to keep his distance

But it's hard for him to leave

He knows I hear him cryin'

Cryin' out for help

I don't know how to save him

I can't even save myself

There's many people dyin'

I've always been afraid

Not that I'm scared of livin'

I'm scared of feeling pain

I don't need another hand, I need a couple suggestions

Always had a little trouble with self-reflections

Now, does my raw emotion make me less of a man? Hmm

Always had a little trouble with self-reflections

I've been so used to winnin'

It was hard for me to lose

No, there's nothing wrong with me

There's just something wrong with you

So I've been making changes

Been workin' on my health

No more competition

Can't compete against myself, no, no, no

I'm not doin' this to be loved, no, no

I've been doin' this to be remembered

Let the people hear if they want to

All the one's around me gettin' onto

If I die tomorrow and I'm gone

Let the blood run high

Let the carpets drown

I'll be forever numb

I don't need another hand, I need a couple suggestions

Always had a little trouble with self-reflections

Now, does my raw emotion make me less of a man? Hmm

Always had a little trouble with self-reflections

I don't need another hand, I need a couple suggestions

Always had a little trouble with self-reflections

Now, does my raw emotion make me less of a man? Hmm

Always had a little trouble with self-reflections

Let this be our problems

That one day's said and done

Be a flower in a garden

Be born with the Sun

Be born with the Sun

Be born with the Sun

Be born with the Sun
