Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Turn my vocals up, alright

[Verse 2]

I wrote this song as a message for help

On behalf of anybody finding they self

I wrote this letter to numb your pain

'Cause everyday I wake up, I'm feeling the same

I got issues just like you got issues

I've been hurt, I've seen the scarred tissue

If I showed you, would you run away?

Do I gotta hide 'em for you to wanna stay?

[Verse 3]

Do I even need you?

Should I leave you?

Do I gotta be you

Just to please you?

Do I say I'm all good

When I bleed you?

Through my

Heart, quit tearing mine apart

[Verse 4]

I shout, I swear

I get angry, I get scared

I fall, I break

I mess up, I make mistakes

But if you can't take me at my worst

You don't deserve me

At my best

[Verse 5]

I gotta keep it going

Gotta keep my head up, uh

I gotta keep it going

Gotta keep my head up, uh

I gotta keep it going

Gotta keep my head up, 'cause life is about

Aight check this out, look

[Verse 6]

Life is about making mistakes

It's also about tryna be great (Right)

Do not let failure scare you away

I know you fed up, you fall, get up

It's all in us

I can speak about it 'cause I did it, true

Ladies and gentlemen, here's the exhibit

It's my life

Look a little closer, you could see the highlights

Gold ain't always golden but I told 'em

Look at all the years

I've been waiting for a moment

Shed a lot of tears

Just to smile in the morning

Tell me could you love me?

Tell me could you love me?

Tell me could you love me if I told you why

[Verse 7]

I shout, I swear

I get angry, I get scared

I fall, I break

I mess up, I make mistakes

But if you can't take me at my worst

You don't deserve me

At my best

[Verse 8]

This song's for anybody

Yeah

Who feels like I did

Never the cool kid

This song's for anybody

Who fought they way through

Always remain true

This song's for anybody

The one's who tryna get it

The one's who dreamin' and live it

This song's for anybody

This song, this song, this song, this song, this song, this song

[Verse 9]

I shout, I swear

I get angry, I get scared (I swear I do)

I fall, I break (Yeah, yeah)

I mess up, I make mistakes (And I ain't sorry 'bout it)

But if you can't take me at my worst

You don't deserve me

At my best

[Verse 10]

I gotta keep it going

Gotta keep my head up, uh

Gotta keep it going

Gotta keep my head up, uh

I gotta keep it going

Gotta keep my head up, 'cause life is about
