I've been taking myself too seriously lately Trapping life inside my mind Only writing things down when I'm feeling blue my baby Can't seem to leave my thoughts behind I'm not the man I appear to be from my musicality I'm sometimes happy all the time Try to capture moments down Try to turn my world around Try not to try so hard all the time Take this journey day by day Don't matter what the naysayers say Try not to try so hard all the time Remember when we went to the stream or was that all just a lucid dream Well life was simpler way back then Now you're throwing this and that at me and I take it way too seriously Don't want to find myself stuck again Try to capture moments down Try turn my world around Try not to try so hard all the time Nothing in this house looks the same But that don't mean I gotta change Try not to try so hard all the time
