What if the trouble is with me?
I can’t seem to shake this old mentality
Not even sure what I believe
What if the trouble is with me?

It can’t be
I refuse to lose the vision I have of this champion me
I’m planting my feet, and I’m pointing my finger at my problems
But not the index or pinky
I have believed for too long my conclusions are strong
My maths says one right must afford me one wrong
I’m tripping along and moving through life
Wondering why even when I win, shit doesn’t feel quite right
I make the choices, fuck around
Disappointing people but my conscience doesn’t make a sound
Excuses coming to me, they are all around
It’s everything around that’s fucked up
I don’t have nothing to worry about

What if the trouble is with me?
I can’t seem to shake this old mentality
Not even sure what I believe
What if the trouble is with me?

Well if it is, well if it is
I’ve got a list of potential places to start
Sickness in the body or the mind begins in the heart
Let’s pick it apart
Start back when I first noticed this grossness
That’s starting to show it’s ugly head
I’m about a quarter way to dead if I’m lucky
If God exists, it’s clear that he stuck me on a path paved with good intentions
Sprinkled with self obsession
And a predisposition for girl chasing, and money spending
And weed smoking, and rule bending
I’m sick of lying and pretending
But to be totally truthful
I find myself in a society where being an asshole is proven fruitful

What if the trouble is with me?
I can’t seem to shake this old mentality
Not even sure what I believe
What if the trouble is with me?

I admit it, I haven’t figured shit out yet
But this song is me trying
I’d be lying if I said I weren’t totally terrified
You won’t be there if I don’t start to clarify
What I believe in and why am I here if I don’t even care about people so dear to me?
I hope you’re hearing me
Finally clear to me that I am merely alone
I’m feeling a stone in my throat
I know that I have to let it go ‘cause what if the trouble is with me?

What if the trouble is with me?
I can’t seem to shake this old mentality
Not even sure what I believe
What if the trouble is with me?
