See Um Sayin

cold hearted prod. jaybeatz.wav

Trying to grow as a person while my brain throws furniture down the stairs.
Trying to breathe while my thoughts file complaints like they work here.
Trying to be better even when I’m tired of being a whole person with responsibilities, feelings, and whatever this emotional circus is.
Some days I swear my inner peace is hiding under a table waiting for the noise to die down.
But I keep showing up.
I keep trying.
And if nothing else, at least the chaos keeps me warm.


Intro
Welcome back.
It’s just you arguing with you again.
You panic like you’re training for something.
You trip over problems you invented.
You stress so loud the furniture gets nervous.
Let’s begin.

Verse 1
I’m walking fast with nowhere to be
my thoughts keep talking over each other
every tiny thing feels heavier than it should
and I can’t tell what’s happening or just in my head
I swear I’m one sharp word from falling apart
one bad moment from saying screw it all
then something in me goes quiet
and he steps in like he’s been waiting
ready to call me out without even blinking

Pre-Chorus
You’re not overwhelmed.
You’re exhausted from pretending you’re fine.
Peace isn’t far.
You just run every time it gets close.

Chorus
why is my higher self roasting me
while I’m trying not to fall apart again
he says breathe but then he cuts deep
says I make storms out of small things
multiverse me says calm down
multiverse me says calm the fuck down

Post-Chorus
calm down calm down you’ve lived through worse
calm down calm down this moment isn’t the whole story
calm down calm down you don’t have to break today
calm down calm down
(I know but it feels like I might)

Verse 2
I start explaining but he just watches
that kind of stare that sees through everything
says you carry weight that isn’t yours
says you pick the hardest road out of habit
and I’m unraveling while he’s still steady
like he’s lived this moment a thousand times
he tells me I don’t have to burn out
just because I never learned how to rest

Bridge
I am trying.
You’re trying alone. That’s the problem.
I don’t know what else to do.
Then stop doing it the painful way.
I’m scared.
Then breathe. Fear doesn’t mean stop.

Final Chorus
why is my higher self roasting me
while I’m trying not to fall apart again
he says breathe but then he cuts deep
says I make storms out of small things
multiverse me says calm down
multiverse me says calm the fuck down

Final Post-Chorus
calm down calm down you’re not your worst thoughts
calm down calm down you’re allowed to step back
calm down calm down you don’t have to fix everything
calm down calm down
(and maybe maybe I’m okay)

Outro
Thank you for showing up today.
Even messy effort is effort.
Please drink some water.
Please breathe.
Please be kind to the parts of you that shake.
This concludes today’s lesson.
