The Jokerr - Critical lyrics

[Verse 1: Masetti] I'm critical of everything that I do, the words are like my weapon I write it, it comes true I'm mad and I'm insane, I worry I couldn't change from the moment I remember the memories that I once knew There's something inside of me that I'll never know While other's are fine with 9 to 5's, while flippin' burgers and fries I'm trying to keep alive the dreams when I was 5 to strive to be forever known And I ain't talkin' money and the fame, I know that it's all the same getting caught up in the game, I never thought it would be easy I don't wanna complain I know life is more than music, but to me it's the same And now it's all that I have, no one left to remind me the future is brighter than what I'm leaving behind me Like I'm living so blindly, but now that I see I got nobody else to blame but me [Hook: Masetti] Why am I so critical? (critical) Wondering how that it got so far, tearing my down right from the start When will I learn that it's not my fault? Why am I so critical? (critical) I've never been so afraid of myself, and I'm too proud to ask for help Guess I gotta work with the cards I'm dealt Why am I so critical? [Verse 2: Dubbs] Why do I do this to myself? Can't begin to imagine what it's doing to my health When I sit in this room stressing for hours on this audio Picking apart to start loosing myself And what's funny is when you hear it if you listen it seems all the doubt and insecurity is missing from me It's like when I'm behind this mic it's a different me Or I guess I'm just projecting what I wish I could be I'm like the kid at 14 who doesn't think he can make the team Even though his friends say he's set up for the major leagues The kid who let somebody tinker with his crazy dream, who never believed that being himself is the way to be But if you took it away I bet I wouldn't be the same over confident, that put me in the cage So I should probably acknowledge it, and capture it's wealth run with and stop asking myself [Hook: Masetti & Dubbs] Why am I so critical? (critical) Wondering how that it got so far, tearing my down right from the start When will I learn that it's not my fault? Why am I so critical? (critical) I've never been so afraid of myself, and I'm too proud to ask for help Guess I gotta work with the cards I'm dealt Why am I so critical? [Verse 3: The Jokerr] I've never been concerned with the pressure of the limelight I've only been about only getting my own mind right I'm broken record player in from a cracked mirror in the basement of the house that I burnt down (down) I've been the ball and the chain dragging from the shackle on the ankle of my brain while my self-sabotaging a** laughs in the background let me tell you all what I've learned now Worst than being a fraud is being real with the f**ed up self image of your own sk** When good is never good, God I need pill my obsession is the definition of over k**, and When I get my confidence shakin', I turn it up a notch and get to over compensatin' Am I honest when I tell you that I have nothing to hide or am I trying to fix something inside? [Outro: Masetti & The Jokerr] Why am I so critical (critical) Wondering how that it got so far, tearing my down right from the start When will I learn that it's not my fault? Why am I so critical (critical) I've never been so afraid of myself, and I'm too proud to ask for help Guess I gotta work with the cards I'm dealt Why am I so critical? (critical) Wondering how that it got so far, tearing my down right from the start When will I learn that it's not my fault? Why am I so critical? (critical) I've never been so afraid of myself, and I'm too proud to ask for help Guess I gotta work with the cards I'm dealt Why am I so critical? (critical) Wondering how that it got so far, tearing my down right from the start When will I learn that it's not my fault? Why am I so critical? (critical) I've never been so afraid of myself, and I'm too proud to ask for help Guess I gotta work with the cards I'm dealt Why am I so critical?
