Excuses
Why no one will help meI am too dumb I am too smartThey'll not understand meI am lonelyThey'll hate meAnd there is not enough timeIt's too hard to help meAnd god wants me to workNo resting no lazy
These excuses how they served me so wellThey've kept me safeThey've kept me stuckThey've kept me locked in my own cell
I'm too far from homeIt takes far too much energyAnd I cannot afford toNo one will ever see me
These excuses how they served me so wellThey've kept me safeThey've kept me stuckThey've kept me locked in my own cell
These excuses how they're so familiarThey've kept me blockedThey've kept me smallThey've kept me safe in my own shell
Bringing this into the lightShakes their foundationAnd it clears my sideNow my imaginationIs the only thing that limitsThe bar that is raised to the heights
No one can have it all seeI have to they want me toAnd I can't let them downI'll never be happy
These excuses how they served me so wellThey've kept me safeThey've kept me stuckThey've kept me locked in my own cell
These excuses how they're so familiarThey've kept me blockedThey've kept me smallThey've kept me locked in my own cell
