The Story Of Fear

I can't sing, but I'm gonna work hard for you to like me
Didn't dream 'cause if I fail then I might be
What they said I was, could I ever say I did it
Tell yay now that I'm second to admit it
Insecure, I can't understand the application
If I applied myself, I guess there'd be no situation
But who teaches who when every day's a substitute
I tried to plant love, but it never took root

My soul's got weeds and the roots are too deep
The roots don't sail 'cause the roots are too deep
Wait
ADDC, my roots too deep
A kid too afraid to close his eyes and sleep
Can't you hear me stutter every time I speak?
Fear said hello when she left me weak
Love me and left me with abandonment issues
Pain's a secret, but it illuminates in you then it creates a menu

But sin on your plate, you don't know until later how much ever you ate
Now I'm watching my weight
Will this album be my best one?
But if it's not, y'all on to the next one
So hello fear, it's about time we speak
It may take a while 'cause our roots run deep

Hey man, we gotta get that one more time
We got a technical difficulty in here
