I tell myself lies all the time
Like I'm not scared
Won't go and run and hide
I let myself down
Cause it's easier to pout
Than grow and leap and jump and
Skip and shout
So I say...
It's better than a 9 to 5
Better that it's do or die
Better than a safe regret
Better than a weak ol flex
Better than I stayed the same
Better than I played the game
Better I don't cheat myself
Better that I use some help
I ignore my own needs
Cause I love to people please
Then turn around and say "oh woe is me"
Easily overwhelmed
It's like I'm lost in a crowd
And push away anyone I want around
So I say...
It's better I don't miss my chance
Better I just please myself
Better I refuse to drown
Better I just stand my ground
Better that I choose to cry
Better that I said goodbye
I'm better cause I chose myself
Better cause I asked for help
