Matters
I tell you that
I got so many matters on my mind
Got so many matters
And I'm trying not to let them weigh me down
Trying not to, but they weigh me down
Yeah, tough skin covering my bones
Veins and muscle holds it all together
And I try to get stronger and better
Push-ups and pull-ups and head up high
Like my father used to tell me
But tough skin shivers in the cold
Veins and muscle lose control
And you think I am made out of marble
But I am barely a mortal
And if you put down your chisel and listen
I'd tell you that
I'm so tired of these expectations
I'm so tired and I'm so afraid I'm not
Any of the things you make me out to be
I tell you that
I got so many matters on my mind
Got so many matters
And I'm trying not to let them weigh me down
Trying not to, but they weigh me down
I got so many matters in my head
Don't say it doesn't matter
'Cause I'm trying not to let them weigh me down
Trying not to but they weigh me down
Yeah, stone face covering my fear
Stone cold but I'm human here
And I am balancing all this angst with ambition
I am my own opposition
If I could get you to listen
I'd tell you that
I'm so tired of these expectations
I'm so tired and I'm so afraid I'm not
Any of the things you make me out to be
I tell you that
I got so many matters on my mind
Got so many matters
And I'm trying not to let them weigh me down
Trying not to but they weigh me down
I got so many matters in my head
Don't say it doesn't matter
'Cause I'm trying not to let them weigh me down
Trying not to but they weigh me down
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
I'm trying not to but they weigh me down
I'm so tired
I'm so tired
I tell you I'm not
Any of the things you make me out to be
I tell you that
I got so many matters on my mind
Got so many matters
And I'm trying not to let them weigh me down
Trying not to but they weigh me down
I got so many matters in my head
Don't say it doesn't matter
'Cause I'm trying not to let them weigh me down
Trying not to but they weigh me down
Whoa
Whoa
Whoa
I'm trying not to but they weigh me down
I got so many matters on my mind
Got so many matters
And I'm trying not to let them weigh me down
Trying not to, but they weigh me down
