JUST LIKE YOU Lyrics

Living in somebody else's shoes

I just wanna escape

Live another life that isn't mine

Excitement all the time

Why can't I be

Just like you

And do everything that I see you do

Everything that I wanna do

Scrolling through my feed yet again, I'm an addict

Insecure deep into the PM, it's a habit

No spark left inside, still caught up in the static

Everything in life feels stagnant

Looking through my stories, can't help but imagine

If I had a Rolls Royce alongside a mansion

If I had a face that I thought was more handsome

If I had a Dad present who did not abandon

Trapped in this abyss of reminiscing

Wishing that I still had friends who could listen

Missing the side of me that didn't care for acceptance

Now I'm just a ball of stress asking for permission, where's my intuition

Connected to the world, disconnected to my spirit

Scream into the void, can anybody hear it

Every pic on my screen a hit to my self-esteem

Maybe put this phone down, and don't come near it, now hear me sing

Living in somebody else's shoes

I just wanna escape

Live another life that isn't mine

Excitement all the time

Why can't I be

Just like you

And do everything that I see you do

Everything that I wanna do

Too many thoughts that are not my own filling up my brain

No wonder why I'm going insane

A moment of silence is hard to come by nowadays

Everybody always got something to say

Sick of echo chambers, folks chasing clout

Sick of people always putting words in my mouth

Sick of feeling like my body never good enough

Dysmorphia makes it hard for any self-love

Remembering when I used to play outside

Cause that's all that we could do

Now everybody got their eyes on a screen

That we glued to

I just wanna be by myself for a second

It ain't natural to always be so connected

This ADHD getting in the way of all that I dream of

The world in my hands if I just turn this screen off, I said

Living in somebody else's shoes

I just wanna escape

Live another life that isn't mine

Excitement all the time

Why can't I be

Just like you

And do everything that I see you do

Everything that I wanna do
