Lyrics
Missteps on drug tests
And each call to action
Hooked on that next look
Just textbook distraction
Too much I can’t stop
Like no sleep til Brooklyn
False starts in three parts
That broken heart cookin’
Four years in hotels
On blank sheets with no shell
Did harm but meant well
Gave and forgave hell
Went too far and came back
With fresh scars on both tracks
Each step means one less
And nothing will change that
Nothing will change that
I’m still the same
I’m still nothing
I’m still nobody
This isn’t easy
But that’s how it’s supposed to be
And looking up
I see I’m closer than I’ve ever been
So go easy on me
Go easy on me
Have you ever thought so much
It made you lose your head
Or been so overcome with dreams
That you just stayed in bed
I know I’m not the only one
That’s wished that I was dead
Or that I could be someone else
Just for a day instead
Feels like everything moves so damn slowly
And every day it’s harder to let people know me
But there is so much that this world has yet to show me
So I keep my head up
Don’t let up
Keep going
I’m still the same
I’m still nothing
I’m still nobody
This isn’t easy
But that’s how it’s supposed to be
And looking up
I see I’m closer than I’ve ever been
So go easy on me
Go easy on me
Have you ever thought so much
It made you lose your head
(go easy on me, go easy on me)
I know I'm not the only one
That's wished that I was dead
(go easy on me, go easy on me)
I’m still the same
I’m still nothing
I’m still nobody
This isn’t easy
But that’s how it’s supposed to be
And looking up
I see I’m closer than I’ve ever been
So go easy on me
Go easy on me
