Once I was molded by the cruelest intentions
I remember the days, I would justify all the speculationAnd if you're gonna plant a rose expect some weeds to grow
And if you ever get that far everyone's a critic of your every move
I used to find time to be defined by the public eye
Fuck it, I rose above itIn a mental prison
Searching for my big break
I need less attention
On all of my mistakes
What if I gave it up
And they'd stop trippin'
All the doing dirt gone in a minute
Just my luck
It makes no difference
Cause all the while I'm blind
I'm doin' fineI walked the walk and earned something
If you quit the talk, you might fuckin' learn something
I grew up a fuckin' screw up
Got disrespect from the cliques
All the kids I fuckin' knew of
I used to find time to be defined by the public eye
Fuck it, I rose above itAnd if you're gonna plant a rose expect some weeds to grow
And if you ever get that far everyone's a critic of your every moveIn a mental prison
Searching for my big break
I need less attention
On all of my mistakes
What if I gave it up
And they'd stop trippin'
All the doing dirt gone in a minute
Just my luck
It makes no difference
Cause all the while I'm blind
I'm doin' fineSuccess is a two way street
And you never wanna meet halfway
So we can share this victory
When I said success I meant love
Through all of the hate I must've forgot what it was
Trying my best to be impartial to the bullshit
But nowadays love is blind
I'd like to think we doin' fineI fell victim and I caved in to a flawed perspective
Had it stuck in my mind, tried hard to cut the ties
I fell victim to what
I bet the whole world was concerned with
You'll never know what it's likeUnless I give it up
And they stop trippin'
All the doing dirt gone in a minute
Just my luck
It makes no difference
Cause all the while I'm blind
What if I gave it up
And they'd stop bitchin'
All the doing dirt gone in a minute
Just my luck
It makes no difference
Cause all the while I'm blind
I'm doin' fine
