Genesis, Genesis Genesis, Genesis I never fit in I never stood out Kept going left till there was no one left around I could've stayed down low And although I still get high I've got purpose, I've got a reason left for life What is this feeling That's got a hold of me I can not possibly be Happy for myself cuz I put in the time Releasing negativity that isn't mine I feel like I am on the precipice Of reaching the potential everybody said I could fight for forever and never get Tell me are you out there listenin' This is my Genesis I've always been an optimist But too scared to give into the happiness I've always had a bone to pick With the hand I was dealt like I was stuck with it So imma throw the game away Cuz if the game don't change It's more of the same More of a cis caucasian nation Tryna put us all in our place I'm saying What is this feeling That's got a hold of me I can not possibly be Happy for myself cuz I put in the time Releasing negativity that isn't mine I feel like I am on the precipice Of reaching the potential everybody said I could fight for forever and never get Tell me are you out there listenin' This is my Genesis This is my Genesis Well maybe it's maturity Maybe it's a lack of empathy I don't know what's got into me But I feel like a brand new entity Maybe it's maturity Maybe it's a lack of empathy I don't know what's got into me But I feel like a brand new entity Happy for myself cuz I put in the time Releasing negativity that isn't mine I feel like I am on the precipice Happy for myself cuz I put in the time Releasing negativity that isn't mine I feel like I am on the precipice Of reaching the potential everybody said I could fight for forever and never get Tell me are you out there listenin This is my Genesis This is my Genesis
