IKE Lyrics

Yeah, who do you wanna be

When you look in the mirror, who do you see

Is it someone that you like, or someone that you hate

Nah actually let's start off with me

Now the person I see he is very flawed

But he tries his hardest to give it his all

But he's still afraid of when he's gonna fall

Cause he doesn't quite know how to deal it all

But he's still trying to learn

He's always the person to try and put in the work

Doesn't give up cause he wants to be worth

Something in his life so he's down to take a burn

But recently it feels like he's only been getting hurt

Cause after all of the effort he would put behind his words

He doesn't get the credit, so he feels he isn't worth

He always sits alone that is when he feels the worst

That is when he wishes that he were just someone else

But there's gotta be a better way to fix his mental health

So he try's to fit with others but he isn't himself

And he still gets pushed away, he just cannot find his realm

You think that's sad Well I think it is too

But you don't know the half of it because he isn't you

You wouldn't even get it if you listened to the lines

This is my story, hello everyone, I'm

IKE

Yeah, I'm fine, I don't wanna talk what's on my mind

I'm way to afraid of what you'll find

I mean it I swear I'm doing alright

IKE

I want to be okay but I don't hear what they have to say

Even then, they wouldn't get it anyway

I don't wanna waste time out of anybody's day

IKE

And I try to be cool

But I always end up looking like a fool

Always being used, as if I was a tool

One day eventually I'll drown in the pool

May I be safe from the place I have made

In my brain, where they all play full of hate

Some say I should stay others say to go away

I don't know what they want so I start to decay

Everybody listens to the music not me

Nobody listens to the pain I see

They're more worried how it sounds like I copied

An artist I look up to but that's what got me

To study how to be the best when I'm writing

And when pain comes in I'll know how to fight it

If it came at small amounts, I would be fine then

But It comes in big waves, depression tsunami

Some say I should change, but that isn't what I want

Nothing is the same, why should I try to be one

In a vision you have Well I think that is lame

I'd rather come in last than race a car I hadn't made

Cause even if I fail I know I can improve

I don't wanna be a product orchestrated under you

This isn't your art, understand that it's mine

And I'm not gonna change so you can be satisfied

IKE

Doesn't want to give up

He's tried that once, let me tell ya it was rough

Now he tries to really block out others love

Cause he's scared more people will try to give him up

IKE

Knows what to do

But he often finds it too hard to make it through

But he keeps on trying, he can't bare to lose

And he hates to help others cause he always feels used

IKE

Yeah, I'm fine, I don't wanna talk what's on my mind

I'm way to afraid of what you'll find

I mean it I swear I'm doing alright

IKE

I want to be okay but I don't hear what they have to say

Even then, they wouldn't get it anyway

I don't wanna waste time out of anybody's day

I hardly know what I want

Sometimes you got to give up

But that doesn't sit with me well

If I did that it would feel like I've failed

You've gotta accept life is hard

You've gotta find a place to start

Once you have found that your gold

Once you get started you know where to go

Yeah, I think I know what I want

I hope it's gonna be fun

I hope I can always do well

I won't make it possible for me to fail

I'm accepting that life is just hard

I already know where to start

It's going to be a long road

But that doesn't matter I know where to go

IKE

Yeah, I'm fine, I don't wanna talk what's on my mind

I'm way to afraid of what you'll find

I mean it I swear I'm doing alright

IKE

I want to be okay but I don't hear what they have to say

Even then, they wouldn't get it anyway

I don't wanna waste time out of anybody's day

IKE

Yeah, I'm fine, I don't wanna talk what's on my mind

I'm way to afraid of what you'll find

I mean it I swear I'm doing alright

IKE

I want to be okay but I don't hear what they have to say

Even then, they wouldn't get it anyway

I don't wanna waste time out of anybody's day
