I know somebody whose life is tough.
I help a little, but it isn't enough
Cuz i go an' spend money on stupid stuff
When i know he's strugglin' to stay above.
An' i have so many chances to be
The hero i believe's inside of me
But i get busy and i get distracted
And i do nothin' when i could've acted
I laid low when i could've stood high.
I said nothin' when i should've asked why.
I saw somethin' that i might've done and i didn't,
A chance to speak my truth and i hid it.
Inside, i'd like to believe i'm cool,
Easy to love and hard to fool,
But i know there's more i could've enjoyed.
Sometimes i find myself thinkin'
Maybe i missed the point.
So many times i turned down love,
Stayed in the dark when i could've lit it up,
But every time i did take a chance
Makes me happy when i'm lookin' back
I'm not sayin' my whole life feels like a joke
But i've been a master of mirrors and smoke
And i don't wanna live
No mo' without you.
I laid low when i could've stood high.
I said nothin' when i should've asked why.
I saw somethin' that i might've done and i didn't,
A chance to speak my truth and i hid it.
Inside, i'd like to believe i'm cool,
Easy to love and hard to fool,
But i know there's more i could've enjoyed.
Sometimes i find myself thinkin'
Maybe i missed the point.
