Greener Side

What if the grass ain't greener on the other side
All this time it was just a lie
What if this is the best it gets
They all say this is just a game
Givin' everything up for fame
But we all know the pics we post
Don't show how lonely we really are
So, when you find yourself second-guessing
Take a moment to count your blessings
All the things you change about your life
Might be someone else's greener side

Yeah
All my friends are
So obsessed on being perfect
Makes me so perplexed
Chasing these feelings
Don't wanna end up depressed
Heard that's a side effect
Of perfection

We set our goals so high
We climb the mountain
Try to touch the sky
But when we fall, we start doubting
Is it even worth fighting
Pick yourself up

What if the grass ain't greener on the other side
All this time it was just a lie
What if this is the best it gets
They all say this is just a game
Showing off our houses and fancy cars
But we all know the pics we post
Don't show how lonely we really are
So, when you find yourself second-guessing
Take a moment to count your blessings
All the things you change about your life
Might be someone else's greener side

Stop comparing
What were you expecting
Change doesn't come from complaining
Quit your wailing
I know it can get frustrating
But you can't blame anybody else
But yourself

Looking for the next best thing
But you won't find anything
You'll never be satisfied
Have you realized
You're searchin for something
That's worth nothing
You say I'm negative?
Well, you're too sensitive!

What if the grass ain't greener on the other side
All this time it was just a lie
What if this is the best it gets
They all say this is just a game
Givin' everything up for fame
But we all know the pics we post
Don't show how lonely we really are
So, when you find yourself second-guessing
Take a moment to count your blessings
All the things you change about your life
Might be someone else's greener side

Get your head out of the clouds
Tell them I ain't comin down
You're too loud
Tell them I ain't calmin down

If you wanna cure your pain
You can skip the liquor store
Take a look in the mirror
Do you see a winner
Take some time to reconsider

Money doesn't last forever
Soon you'll be under pressure
I admire your effort
But it doesn't bring you pleasure

Next time you find yourself thinking
That you'll never succeed
Don't be decieved
Don't admit defeat
You're not good enough?
Tell that voice to shut up
Tell em that you're fed up
Wake up
