lyrics

I'm struggling with who I am and who I pretend to be
Forcing progression in my identity
Redefining what we are all meant to be
Essentially a wake up call, can't tell you what it meant to be
Twenty-two, many groups I've graced in past vicinities
Ignorant and affected by the toxic masculinity
So for the awareness, I express gratitude
Identified the problem and altered my attitudes
All these complex beliefs that I juggle
Constant state of evolution, new piece of the puzzle
And if we can't dictate the ascent ourselves
Then what hope is there for anyone's mental health?
I'm still tryna figure it out
It's not about who's right, it's how loud do they shout
I don't know what they're shouting about
All I know is I need to learn to rid myself of this doubt 'cause

We all wanna be so perfect
And carve out this beautiful image, is it worth it?
We all participate, but what's the purpose?
Too scared to be human, an incomplete person
We all wanna be so perfect
And carve out this beautiful image, is it worth it?
We all participate, but what's the purpose?
Too scared to be human, an incomplete person

Every day a new one gets cancelled
That song's problematic now, you can't dance to
Escaped justice but now we can't stand you
'Cause we are all enlightened to the evil that man do
I'm tryna move forward, align myself with the progressives
When we ignore what's in front of us, it's us we're disrespecting
No shame in being wrong, as long as you can stand corrected
But if you turn a blind eye, what are you expecting?
You can miss me with that fake outrage
It rears its ugly head but never stays out late
Kill the giants, don't dispose of their carcass
And let the stench linger, refocus your targets
No time for abusers and apologists
Who choose to ignore evidence and block it from their knowledges
Pledge to do better, make good on our promises
Learn from our mistakes, that's where the real honour is
Can't judge, 'cause that'd be hypocritical
Change comes from within, can't let the hate live in you
Wilfully ignorant? That shit is kinda pitiful
These are dark times, how the fuck are you sitting through?

We all wanna be so perfect
And carve out this beautiful image, is it worth it?
We all participate, but what's the purpose?
Too scared to be human, an incomplete personWe all wanna be so perfect
And carve out this beautiful image, is it worth it?
We all participate, but what's the purpose?
Too scared to be human, an incomplete person
