Pressure to be the best I can be
Angry and frustrated that I’m only going to be me
It’s not enough, this is never enough
Not half the man my brothers will be
Never a leader nor a fucking sheep
Dear father, dear brothers
Destined to drift through this life alone
Dear father, dear brothers
I’m sorry
Walking in circles
No destination, no place to call my home
The city lights illuminate the night sky
But I’m hiding in shadows
Not half the man my brothers will be
In this concrete jungle, the heart of it all
I drift thought this world cold and all alone
Every time I pushed you aside
Every time I pushed you away
It’s because I was scared to say
I just want you to know
It’s because I was scared to say
I was scared to say…
