Man, here we go again with this...
Feels like we've been here before...

Let me break it down for you...

Yo, I've been trying to tell you for like seventeen weeks
Life ain't all that complicated but you're making it too deep
You're analyzing every text like it's ancient Greek
When the answer's right there but you're playing hide and seek
You overthink your breakfast, overthink your shoes
Overthink the weather like you control the news
I'm about to lose my mind watching you get confused
So let me break it down for you in words that you can use

Break it down, I'll break it down (for you)
Life's simple but you make it voodoo
Break it down, I'll break it down (it's true)
Stop thinking 'bout thinking, just do what you do
Break it down, I'll break it down (for you)
Like explaining colors to a kangaroo
Break it down, I'll break it down (we're through)
With all these mental gymnastics you do

You Google "how to breathe" like you need a manual
Spend three hours choosing socks, that ain't natural
You read seventeen reviews for a candy bar
Then wonder why your simple life feels so bizarre

I said "have a nice day" and you wrote a thesis
On what "nice" really means and all its pieces
You turned "see you later" into a debate
About temporal mechanics - yo, I can't relate!

Break it down, I'll break it down (for you)
Life's simple but you make it voodoo
Break it down, I'll break it down (it's true)
Stop thinking 'bout thinking, just do what you do
Break it down, I'll break it down (for you)
Like explaining colors to a kangaroo
Break it down, I'll break it down (we're through)
With all these mental gymnastics you do

Sometimes a door is just a door
Sometimes less thinking gives you more
Sometimes the answer that you seek
Is simpler than you think this week

You asked me what I meant when I said "what's up?"
Spent forty-five minutes filling up your cup
With theories 'bout direction and celestial stuff
When all I meant was "hey there" - ain't that enough?

You're like a GPS that won't stop recalculating
Every single step that you've been contemplating
Life's a sitcom but you're making it dramatic
Turn down the volume on that brain static

Break it down, I'll break it down (for you)
Life's a sandwich, not a stew
Break it down, I'll break it down (it's true)
Just bite and chew, that's all you do
Break it down, I'll break it down (for you)
Red means stop and green means go through
Break it down, I'll break it down (we're through)
Just breathe in, breathe out - that's all we need to do!

So next time life feels like rocket science
Just remember this lyrical guidance
Keep it simple, keep it tight
Everything's gonna be alright...
(If you don't overthink it tonight!)

Break It Down (For You)
