Makin' Muzak

Beat down in an lamentable state
I think I left my luck in the last decade
I'm tracing back my steps but the landscape has changed
With memories overgrown

My arms are getting tired of my head in my hands
But my head is feeling weak so my arms understand
This could go on forever, man, it already has
I said inertia no more

'Cause I'm that dude
And yeah, you bet I'm pulling through
I may be blinded and confused
But I'm not turning away

Nobody knows you when you're down and out
Feels like grandmas gonna ghost you, hell, I'd ghost myself
I can't believe my eyes even my money's run out
Look at those presidents go

It took me a minute but now I can see
That I ain't princess peach, no one's lookin' for me
And why the hell did I ever think they would be
Aye there's the rub

I'm that dude
And yeah, you bet I'm pulling through
I may be blinded and confused
But I'm not turning away

I spent the last five years
Tryna prove my worth through my career
I thought if I could earn your love I'd lose my fear
But that's not how it works
Now is it

Nothing feels worse than hiding yourself
Except for maybe failing when you are yourself
I'm the kind to just give up and be someone else
But damn I wanna quit it, oh

I'm that dude
Yeah, you bet I'm pulling through
If it's the last damn thing I do
I'm not turning away
