Lyrics:

Put on a smile, pretend everything’s okay
But at night when the lights off, 
can’t stop thinking about today 

Oh is this worth it? Will I make it? 
Am I made for it? 
Am I on the right track? 
Can I get the feeling back, 
when I wasn’t so anxious?

All these questions, 
questioning myself 
When I know, 
I got what it takes 
So stop with the 
nonsense in my head, 
I Can make it happen 
I can make it happen 

Gotta fake it, 
until the day that I make it, 
yeah that’s what they say 
And even when i’m feeling down 
I know I’ll be okay. 

This is worth it, I deserve it, 
I’m doing what I can
and even if I, 
stumble I know I can make it
happen

All these questions, 
questioning myself 
When I know, 
I got what it takes 
So stop with the nonsense in my head, 
I Can make it happen 
I can make it happen 
I'm gonna make it happen
I'm gonna make it happen

Push Play

..And I can't even look at myself
And I'll sit down cause I can't even stand the thought of myself
I'm preachin to the choir but I hate the man in the mirror
Cause I know he's a selfish liar, cheater and a killer
But I'm living this life and I don't wanna be taken for granted
Although everything I'm granted gets taken away from me goddammit
I think I'm big, you think i be little, you belittle me
it's plain to see, the mystery of you and me is bravery
You need me but you need me not, you save me then you let me rot
And I'm still in my garden dropping pedals like she loves me not
How the hell you love me? I can't even get a compliment
You tell me I look like shit and to you that's an accomplishment
You tell me that we bleed the same, that's fucked up
Cause were either all depressed or your fucked up
Where the hell are you when I clinch my fist?
Can't tell if I'm emotional or emotionless
But it says it on my wrist, and the price for life it aint right
My necklaces are tangled up, that's a metaphor for my life
I must admit, I be rapping, I feel like shit so I'ma spit it,
Say I wanna kill myself then after this song say i didn't
I'm drinking to die, I'm dying to live
But all these empty bottles aint doing shit, am I making sense?
But this blemish won't diminish so i'll just finish these shots
To be honest I just want a bullet in my head and not these thoughts

Scraping the paint of the wall
Are you even, are you even there?
I don't want my heart to beat, unless you're thinking of me
Are you even, are you even there?

And they say, today love don't mean shit
And were trapped in the moments, the moments we'll never get
So I'll just yell a bit, at who? the person that I'm close too
Aint it funny how I love you just simply turns into fuck you
But baby, don't leave, let me have a minute, and I swear that I'll get it
You want out of it? well out of what? Cause baby I'm not with it
You'll never have a minute, that's all it took to turn on me!
Go message all your girls on Facebook, you had your turn with me
And tell em that you love them like you did to me, 
Watch me stick by you through everything and then just turn on me
Now the tables turn, and it's your turn to cry to me
Fuck that, If i hear you're voicemail again you're gonna need surgery
Your call has been forwarded to a ….aw shut the fuck up!
You think it's just you? But i can't even think straight I'm so fucked up
 I'm at the bottom of the bottle, the bottle is so unbearable, 
Comparable to me having a value is a miracle
