outro

Can't stop thinking 'bout the way that you stare
I bet you feel proud when you look in the mirror
I know that my body will never compare
But fuck it, I'm okay if I'm keeping you near
And I got best friends that don't know my soul
And I got family, they don't know me at all (know me at all)
And you got little secrets that will keep me in awe
Whenever you remind me that you think of them all

Having thoughts about myself (myself)
No one's worried about my health (my health)
Had to climb up onto my shelf (my shelf)
Blow the dust and ask for help (for help)

Maybe I've been looking at life through a lens
And maybe there's a reason that I should try again
And I just wanna say I'm sorry to my only gem
Girl, you know we tried this again and again
I'm glad that we realized that we're better off as friends
And no matter, what you're the one I will protect
I'll always make you smile with any chance I get
And you have that smile that I will never forget

And to the flower that I neglected
I only wanted to feel protected
I'm sorry for not thinking 'bout your trauma
Big sis, you know that I love ya

Promise me that you will treat your baby with the love
That I always wanted but you were afraid of
You'll be the best mama to your brand-new cub
I'll be the best uncle and I'll never run

No one stays on earth just to please themselves
They only do it for someone else
But what if that person just goes away?
Is there really a reason that I should stay?

And I don't wanna be so down, down
But I gotta leave this town, town
Wanna move to Texas and shut out
'Cause if I stay here, I'll shut down

How you doin' mama? I know I made you proud
Wasn't the best kid but look at me now
Retired you at 19, completed my vow
Sometimes I stay up and ask myself how

Did I get this life and do I need more?
The answer is yes, I always want more
I wish I had a way to distress, mom
The girls in my life, they bring stress, mom
And no one's been a light like you, mom
No one can fight like you, mom

I'm sorry 'bout the pills I was swallowing
I know you hate the path I was following
But weed makes you feel like I'm hollowed in
And when they all smoke, I'm left out again

But fuck it, I only need you, mom
I only live my life 'cause of you, mom
I only live my life 'cause of you, mom
I only live my life 'cause of you, mom
I only live my life 'cause of you, mom
I only live my life 'cause of you, mom
