[Verse 1: Jarod Glawe] I was born in shoes I didn't wanna wear Didn't try to change em cause I didn't know what else was there Moms told me that sometimes life just isn't fair So I lied and told myself I didn't care But I did, and I grew Spread my wings, and I flew As time went on I decided to wear them different shoes Now I look outsiiide n it still looks kinda bleak Seven days in a week Just to waste em trynna be on fleek [Chorus x2] This is my life But I don't wanna live it You say you're real but uh dunno what is or isn't If this is all there is then why don't we try to truly live it: Life? Why don't we truly live life? [Verse 2: Jarod Glawe] Whatcha know about high expectations? Livin' up to them like I gotta beat the whole nation And that's a pretty easy way to lose all motivation Which I did but that's a different conversation And if all you think you hear is a lotta complainin' Maybe you're right, but I swear I'm not insane I know what I'm sayin' And I don't care about anyone who's hatin' They ain't gonna stop the dream I'm livin' From me, that will never get taken [Refrain] Silent My life My life My life [Verse 3: Jarod Glawe] I just really wanna do me without restriction But right now a life like that, would just be truly fiction Yet I still live like I'm on some sorta man-made mission This is the start of somethin' great - I got that inhibition And at the end of a path that I refused to take And if this is a dream, then I don't really wanna ever wake And I'm doin' things others - they could never make 'Cause I'm dreamin' things that most - they wouldn't ever think [Chorus x2] This is my life But I don't wanna live it You say you're real but uh dunno what is or isn't If this is all there is then why don't we try to truly live it: Life? Why don't we truly live life? [Bridge: Jarod Glawe] Last verse before I dip out I hope I don't flip out Sometimes I wonder if you can hear me, should I shout? I made this song to let my emotions out, not to pout And I dunno how many people will hear it Especially by word of mouth I live my life is constant confusion I dunno what's real or an illusion Wish I could find some sort of fusion I can't sleep but when I do I just dream lucid Lately battles with anxiety I'vw been losin' And now I'm overthinking and the songs done done done
