Memento - With the Tide lyrics
[Memento - With the Tide lyrics]
Look, I'm back, familiar place
Lying in my bed, regretting my choice
Back at the start, I thought I'd be cool
I had my own reason, stuck around like a fool
I couldn't fit the mold from
The day this began
For the first time in life, I want to fit in
You know I hated school so
I didn't back then, but
Let me explain
I been focused on people and not
At all on my dreams
I'm only a human, I got my flaws and my needs
It's eating at my mind what
They thinking of me
It's eating up my time when
I'm hitting the beats
Why the fuck do I crave
For these people's respect?
It's slowing me down
Throwing my brain in a mess
I been alone in a crowd
I think it's fucked with my head
Been so long without friends
Now I just take what I get
And these people that I work with
They don't give a fuck
I want to live my purpose
They want a quick buck
They scared of conversation, bitch
You think I can't tell?
I learned a harsh lesson
Every man for himself
I feel my head falling under the water
Will I sink or will I swim with the tide
Time passes by but I only grow farther
And I hope I find my place in this life
And when you see me on stage
I seem like I'm the man 'til
You see the real me
You think you fucking know me 'cause
You come to my show?
Would I feel the same respect if
You could come to my home?
If you could see the man I am
When I take off my mask
I'm good at first impressions but
That shit doesn't last i start to open up
Why you start to back off?
My fucking self esteem kind
Of starting to drop
I feel my head falling under the water
Will I sink or will I swim with the tide
Time passes by & I only grow farther
But, I know I'll find my place in this life
I'll find my place in this life
I'll find my place in this life
I'll find my place in this life
Lying in my bed, regretting my choice
Back at the start, I thought I'd be cool
I had my own reason, stuck around like a fool
I couldn't fit the mold from
The day this began
For the first time in life, I want to fit in
You know I hated school so
I didn't back then, but
Let me explain
I been focused on people and not
At all on my dreams
I'm only a human, I got my flaws and my needs
It's eating at my mind what
They thinking of me
It's eating up my time when
I'm hitting the beats
Why the fuck do I crave
For these people's respect?
It's slowing me down
Throwing my brain in a mess
I been alone in a crowd
I think it's fucked with my head
Been so long without friends
Now I just take what I get
And these people that I work with

I'll find my place in this life
