[Intro]
(Sparse arrangement)
Talking to myself again
Wondering where it all went wrong
[Verse 1]
Mirror shows me who I am
Not the person in my head
All the things I thought I'd be
Lie crumpled on my unmade bed
Disappointment tastes like copper
Bitter truths I can't swallow
But I'm learning how to sit
With the parts I used to follow
[Pre-Chorus]
Growing up means growing honest
Facing what I've tried to hide
[Chorus]
I'm not perfect, never was
Still deserving of some love
Mistakes don't make me broken
Just human, just awoken
To the fact that I'm enough
Even when the road gets rough
[Inst]
(Building intensity)
[Verse 2]
Sorry to the younger me
Who thought life would be so clean(calin o z)
Messy hearts and messy rooms
Aren't as scary as they seem
Learning how to disappoint
People who expect too much
Setting boundaries feels selfish
But it's really self-love's touch
[Pre-Chorus]
Growing up means growing honest
Facing what I've tried to hide
[Chorus]
I'm not perfect, never was
Still deserving of some love
Mistakes don't make me broken(Cali o z)
Just human, just awoken
To the fact that I'm enough
Even when the road gets rough
[Bridge: Call-and-Response]
(Female) What if I'm not strong enough?
(Male) You've survived this far
(Female) What if I keep messing up?
(Male) That's just who we are
(Female) What if I'm too much for them?
(Male) Then they're not your people
(Both) We're all just figuring out
(Both) How to be human
[Chorus]
I'm not perfect, never was
Still deserving of some love
Mistakes don't make me broken
Just human, just awoken(Calin O Z)
To the fact that I'm enough
Even when the road gets rough
[Outro]
(Gentle resolution)
Talking to myself with kindness(CalinOZ World Off Music)
Knowing I belong here too
