In My Head

She said, "I like listening to your brain
Let me take a look at what's inside"
They say, "Tell me everything you wanna say
But only take three minutes of my time"

But it's gonna take a little more than what you want
To sort through everything I've got
In my head, in my head, oh, oh, oh
Yeah, it's gonna take a little more than what you want
To sort through everything I've got
In my head, in my head, oh, oh, oh

Listen to my voice
Will I be worth your time
I'm just background noise
Inside of my own mind
Gonna give you just a look behind my eyes
Gonna give you just a taste of what's inside
In my head, in my head, oh, oh, oh

I know there's something here for me
Do I know just who I wanna be
Filling in the spaces in between
The day they know my name and anonymity
Step back, just stop and let's rewind
This beat's got me in my own mind
So much to say, so little time

Listen to my voice
Will I be worth your time
I'm just background noise inside of my own mind
Gonna give you just a look behind my eyes
Gonna give you just a taste of what's inside
In my head, in my head, oh, oh, oh

Tell me, tell me, am I worth your time yet
Tell me, tell me, am I worth a dime yet
Gotta stay in line, cookie-cutter chorus and a typical rhyme
Build it up, break it down, don't lose control
Keep it going, make 'em pay attention now
You got a big head, you got a big mouth
Your head is empty and you got nothing to talk about
You've got a gift but it's not enough
