Lizzy Hilliard - Ego check lyrics

Had the same twisted ankle for a year or so Tend to forget it's there, a couple weeks go by, then a pinch like a hairline A friendly reminder I'm broken somehow, even though I forgot every now and then Made a stupid mistake a couple years ago Tend to forget the awkward talk that ensued And then, way late at night, it creeps back in like a dude in a bar A simple refresher on the pretty mеssed up way things are Sometimеs you need a simple ego check Sometimes you need a slap in the face I'm not the queen of now or then Thank God I can begin again I'm no better than you, you're no better than me We're all moving at the exact same pace Saddest part is the rolling the stone up the hill We wonder at the point of it all as we try and we try Like a pre-blindness Paul trying to think The answer's right there, but we miss it until we blink Sometimes it seems like we'd rather convenience than truth We wonder at the point of the busy-ness When the dizziness of the life wouldn't be fizzy necessarily Sometimes we don't care, and then others, we look at it warily

Sometimes you need a simple ego check Sometimes you need a slap in the face I'm not the queen of now or then Thank God I can begin again I'm no better than you, you're no better than me We're all moving at the exact same pace How will you learn if you don't fall How will you learn if you don't try out being tall How will you learn if you don't see How will you learn if you don't be I suppose that, in a way, it must be overdue I get one too many compliments and then my head balloons My self-obsession monsoons and I fear I might be too proud to appreciate how I got here But I won't lie, it's been nice to accept the praise alone I get one too many flatteries and my batteries seem to forget the pitter-pattery scene How I wasn't alone, how I can't take all the credit where I lean Sometimes you need a simple ego check Sometimes you need a slap in the face I'm not the queen of now or then Thank God I can begin again I'm no better than you, you're no better than me We're all moving at the exact same pace
