Quarter-life Crisis

(Verse 1)

twenty-something feelin' lost in the maze

Used to have dreams now it's just a hazy daze

Got a degree but it's collecting dust

Another dead-end job fueled by self-distrust

Remember graduation the pomp and the cheer

Now it's just bills piling full of stress and fear

Lost in my twenties spinning 'round and 'round

Searching for direction but no solid ground

Fake it 'til you make it that's what they all say

But the mask is getting heavy day by day

Lost in my twenties a quarter-life crisis

Chasing fleeting moments ignoring the prices

(Verse 2)

Scrolling through the 'Gram everyone's a star

While I'm stuck here wonderin' how I got this far

Bills pilin' up rent is always due

Fake a smile pretendin' that I'm seein' it through

Apartment's a shoebox ramen's on the stove

Living that broke life ain't got time for love

Dating apps and swiping a superficial game

Searching for connection but all the same

Friends are getting married buying houses and cars

While I'm still figuring out who I truly am behind these bars

Of expectation, societal pressure

To have it all figured out a life of leisure

(Bridge)

They say it gets better but when will that be

Stuck in this cycle can't break free

Tryna find my purpose tryna find my worth

Just another soul lost on this lonely Earth
