Burn Myself Out of My Face Lyrics

This life is not a race

Or just about being better

After all you gotta pace

One step first before the other

Never rush things

Or push yourself out of pressure

'Cause your work

Is not your life's measure

Take it slow

Zone out, that is better

This is not just a song

It's an open letter

Have you ever wondered how it feels

Like the back of your mind will burst out

You got loads of ideas

And things you wanna do

But doubts just eliminate ya

Too many questions

Too many things

Too many thoughts

And too many everything

I really don't know what to do first

And I really don't know where to place 'em

But I think I just need

To back off for a second

Or maybe a day or two

Just to get myself back up in position

And maybe in the right direction

Gotta pace myself where there is grace

I'll never work it out again like it's a race

And then burn myself out of my face

And then find me inside of a maze

Take a break and pace yourself

When you work tons

I tell you, you will lose yourself

Gotta breathe some air again

I just wanna run around and be free again

And again

And again

Be free again

Oh, be free again

Be free again

Guess I have the anxiety of productivity

I think it's fear of missing out haunting me

I feel like when I don't work

I'd lose momentum

But new momentum starts when you rest

Just like the rest

They work their best

But they don't ever realize they're losing themselves

We will get there, I promise ya

Just stay calm

Don't let anxiety get ya

I know this situation is teaching me patience

I should probably learn how to wait

For the right time

At the right place

With the right pace

And with grace

I should probably close my eyes

And give myself a really freakin' good night rest

Maybe next time after this

I'll come back with excitement coming out of my chest

I need to rest

Oh, I need to rest

Oh, I need to rest

Yeah
