Preaching To The Choir

After all the life I've lived
I finally don't feel like shit
But it feels like it's moving faster
And all of it just feels so backwards
Said I was gifted as a kid
I didn't think they meant like this
'Cause I'm gifted at overthinkin'
Over talking and over drinking

I've been a lonely piece of shit
For the majority of it
I get trapped in these fucking cycles
I'm either hopeless or in denial
Not sure where I'm meant to fit
I've just been going with it
I think I set my soul on fire
You'd say I'm preaching to the choir

But I think you're just a liar
The situations getting dire
I'm feeling fucking inspired
To give up just 'cause I'm tired

After all the life I lived
I guess I still just feel like shit
'Cause it's always moving fast
Sometimes I wish I could go back
To when I was a little kid
I'd tell him don't stress all of this
'Cause it only gets worse
Everyone kicks you to the curb

But there's still good days up ahead
Try not to get consumed by dread
You know it's all in your head
And your worst fear's being dead
You still got time to figure out what all this life shit's all about
Sometimes it's healthy to doubt what so-called wise people speak about

Just thought that I should get that out
You don't have to follow the crowd
I'm reluctant and proud
Fuck what they say is allowed
