I'm so used to running from my feelings if it's negative
Yeah, it's repetitive, but I should probably stay with it
Everybody 'round me saying that they're happy and complacent
Like, am I really the only one that's chasing it? Chasing it, embracing it
Instead of bottles on the table to replace it with
I need some time from my mind, need some space from it, uh
I've always been told when you're feeling low, don't let it show
But as I'm getting older, I'm letting go what I used to know
I've been climbing, nine-to-five'in', and tryna rest in peace
Tell me, where's the silver lining? I can't find it if I can't sleep
Strapped into this roller coaster, when it's over, I'm still feeling lonely
There's no easy way to say this, guess I need to be okay with being me
Ooh-wa, ooh-wa, ooh-wa, oh-oh
Ooh-wa, ooh-wa, ooh-wa, oh-oh (being me)
Ever since I started looking in the mirror
It killed the fear of never knowing if I'll ever get a hold of it
I'm not saying that it's easy, but believe me
Once you're pointed in the right direction, you can finally roll with it
Rolled with it, I noticed it, when I finally hit the floor and didn't croak from it
Now I'm closer to the life that I'm supposed to live, uh, uh-uh
I've been climbing, nine-to-five'in', and tryna rest in peace
Tell me where's the silver lining? I can't find it if I can't sleep
Strapped into this roller coaster, when it's over, I'm still feeling lonely
There's no easy way to say this, guess I need to be okay with being me
Ooh-wa, ooh-wa, ooh-wa, oh-oh
Ooh-wa, ooh-wa, ooh-wa, oh-oh (being me)
Ooh-wa, ooh-wa, ooh-wa, oh-oh (guess I need to be okay with)
Ooh-wa, ooh-wa, oh (being me)
I've always been told, when you're feeling low, don't let it show
But as I'm getting older, I'm letting go what I used to know
