Lyrics:
Welcome to my life or should I say…my curse
It’s not that bad, but my mind makes it worse
I feel alone & lost in my creative purpose
Like a touch of frost in a boiling furnace
A solo force…driven by my soul
Looking for applause to validate my role
As a tortured artist, I make…but flounder
It’s hard enough…being plagued by doubters
I need to seek balance on every dimension
I need to speak and challenge with intention
Cos I can’t sit back, think - “that’s that”
Gotta rise, spit fire; on a phat track
This confused being living in this physical
Needs to find a way to remain spiritual
Used to think I could do it by myself
But now realise…I must seek some help

Am I the only one who feels it?
Never mind the doubters gotta just forgive em…yeah, yeah
They just put me on my mission
Never mind the doubters because I’m soul driven…yeah, yeah

I think about the doubter lodged in my head
I wanna rip it out wish it were dead
Cos past-life crap bubbles to the surface
Creates conflict, tells me I’m worthless
I try to shut it out…but I can’t
As much I want to forget…I shan’t
Cos, in truth…I gotta heal the internal
Create a clear channel to the force eternal
And there are those who made me feel abandoned
Who weren’t there to support, but left me stranded
Some left the musical path, unsure
I understand, but can’t shut that door 
Sometimes I wanna quit it hurts too much
Am I going nowhere? Am I losing touch?
Though I feel kindred spirits come soon
I gotta march on and erase the gloom

Am I the only one who feels it?
Never mind the doubters gotta just forgive em…yeah, yeah
They just put me on my mission
Never mind the doubters because I’m soul driven…yeah, yeah

There’s no rest for the weary eyed soldier
Though it’s a long and lonely road we’ve traveled miles and miles upon
You possess much more than they got on ya
And if you fall then dust yourself off keep on driving on that soul

I’ve tried to fill my life with another path
But when I walk away I wind up at the start
Something compels me, tells me “STAY”
It’s bigger than me, it won’t go away
I can’t stop even if I wanted to
My mission needs me to follow through
Not about end goals, but the process
To make spirit whole, it accepts no less
So battle weary, I walk lockstep
Eyes fixed and alert, seeking what’s next
To climb this mountain to higher self
Activate through music…cos it helps
Bridge gaps between the divine and I
To stay positive in my mind’s eye
I know i’m not alone in the way I feel
And it’s this sole fact that helps me deal

Am I the only one who feels it?
Never mind the doubters gotta just forgive em…yeah, yeah
They just put me on my mission
Never mind the doubters because I’m soul driven…yeah, yeah
Am I the only one who feels it?
Never mind the doubters gotta just forgive em…yeah, yeah
They just put me on my mission
Never mind the doubters because I’m soul driven…yeah, yeah
