Life in a Pool of Insecurites
Growing up is hard to do
The people you meet, the love you give, the life you live, is hard to go through
You want to do your best and be as great as anyone can be
But you start to think "Somebody will always be better than me"
Somebody is gonna have better goals and dreams than I
Somebody is gonna see all my flaws through their naked eye
Why am I scared?
Why am I nervous?
Why do I care so much about what others think of my purpose?
I don't know, I'm hoping time will tell
I'm hoping that whatever they think, it'll be well
Yes, I'm beautiful
Yes, I'm intelligent
Yes, I have a blooming personality
But, that doesn't stop my growing insecurties
I'm forever concerned about who thinks I'm great
Hoping that they'll see I'm more than a solid eight
I'm forever concerned about who thinks I'm terrible
Maybe they'll see that I'm irresistible
I know I can't dwindle on everyone's opinions
But the truth is, the world is full of judgemental minions
So I make myself a promise
That however I feel and whatever I go through, I'll remain honest
Honest to myself
Honest to my life
Honest to me
This is my Life in a Pool of Insecurities
