thanks! Lyrics

I just had the kind of day that made me second guess my hold on things

And maybe I can find a way to make my mess work just the way I need

I don't need to fight myself lately to find my way to me

I'm shadow boxing my problems watchin em dance around the room

My head underwater but when can I get up out the pool?

I'm keepin myself too honest, I think my thoughts might drown me soon

I'm lovin myself through too much trauma all of them Oak Park afternoons

Maybe

I don't

Have to be closed off so often

I know

Why I am though

And I know

Why it is that I need distance

Why what that mean ain't the same always

I know too much to betray myself

But I guess, then again, that's what they all say

Whether to me or about me

Seem like people mission often gettin me to doubt me

Ain't the type to bring up where people would be without me

But people always seem to find out and do it devoutly

The people that I love know enough to more than reroute me

But everybody else gotta guess until it come out me

That's why I treat the pace of the work like chasing a bounty

I know what I could amount to, my motive is always counting

So don't get mad at me baby

I know that I react sorta crazy

Shit wasn't goin bad til I made it

It wasn't work til they actually paid me

I'm taking "can't" out my sentences

Everyone watchin like I invented this

I been doin battle wit some sentiments

That come through at times when we intimate

They be in the mix

And you been around when I'm in and out

When I get around, feel you in the crowd

I don't need a lot, I don't feel a lot, but what I feel, I won't leave it out

I don't want a lot but you give a lot

It take a lot just to feel it out

I don't wanna shift, I don't gotta stick, but whatever comes, I been healin now
