Origin

I feel lost
Lived right in this city for a decade
But sometimes still lose my way
When a memory gets caught for too long
Fingers crossed
It's all better than it is portrayed
I should've kept my eyes up
Should've obeyed
So I know where I belong
But I never looked out the backseat window
Motion sick
Wishing I were somewhere else
I'm aching for the old days
Where did they go
Being in the moment doesn't help

I know where I came from
I don't know where I'm meant to be
And though I'm fearful of what's to come
I'm one of three

My tongue
Is pressed to the roof of my mouth
All my dreams are going south
And crashing down

Somebody's son
Lost in the lights of this town
Trying to stand out from the crowd
Will he be found

But when I see a little girl in pictures
Crying in her mother's shirt
I wonder how he could have done that to her
Shit she sure did not deserve

I know where I came from
I don't know where I'm meant to be
And though I'm fearful of what's to come
I'm one of three

On my way to an audition
That's far from what I can see
And though I'm young and I am dumb
I still have me

Little girl runs on the beach
Just booked a guest spot on TV
And now she's shaking the sand off her feet

Mmm...

Her heart's racing
Pink in her cheeks
A book in her bag that she still needs to read
Maybe she needs something to eat

I know who I got my name from
And making it's now up to me
Whether it's Potts or Abrams
I'll tell the world our story

They wished for a kingdom
That's far from what I can see
And though I'm young and I am dumb
I'm one of three
