Critical (feat. Masetti & Dubbs)

Critical(feat. Masetti & Dubbs) - The Jokerr

I'm critical of everything that I do

The words are like my weapon I write it

It comes true

I'm mad and I'm insane I worry I couldn't change

From the moment I remember the memories

That I once knew

There's something inside of me that I'll never know

While other's are fine with nine to five's

While flippin' burgers and fries

I'm trying to keep alive the dreams

When I was five to strive to be forever known

And I ain't talkin' money and the fame

I know that it's all the same

Getting caught up in the game

I never thought it would be easy

I don't wanna complain

I know life is more than music

But to me it's the same

And now it's all that I have

No one left to remind me

The future is brighter

Than what I'm leaving behind me

Like I'm living so blindly

But now that I see I got nobody else

To blame but me

Why am I so critical? critical

Wondering how that it got so far

Tearing my down right from the start

When will I learn that it's not my fault?

Why am I so critical? critical

I've never been so afraid of myself

And I'm too proud to ask for help

Guess I gotta work with the cards I'm dealt

Why am I so critical?

Why do I do this to myself?

Can't begin to imagine what it's doing to my health

When I sit in this room

Stressing for hours on this audio

Picking apart to start loosing myself

And what's funny is when you hear it

If you listen it seems all the doubt

And insecurity is missing from me

It's like when I'm behind this mic

It's a different me

Or I guess I'm just projecting

What I wish I could be

I'm like the kid at fourteen

Who doesn't think he can make the team

Even though his friends

Say he's set up for the major leagues

The kid who let somebody tinker with his crazy dream

Who never believed

That being himself is the way to be

But if you took it away I bet

I wouldn't be the same over confident

That put me in the cage

So I should probably acknowledge it

And capture it's wealth

Run with and stop asking myself

Why am I so critical? critical

Wondering how that it got so far

Tearing my down right from the start

When will I learn that it's not my fault?

Why am I so critical? critical

I've never been so afraid of myself

And I'm too proud to ask for help

Guess I gotta work with the cards I'm dealt

Why am I so

I've never been concerned

With the pressure of the limelight

I've only been about only getting my own mind right

I'm broken record player

In from a cracked mirror in the basement

Of the house that I burnt down

I've been the ball and the chain

Dragging from the shackle on the ankle of my brain

While my self-sabotaging ass laughs

In the background

Let me tell you all what I've learned now

Worst than being a fraud is being real

With the ****** up self image of your own skill

When good is never good

God I need pill my obsession

Is the definition of over kill and

When I get my confidence shakin'

I turn it up a notch and get to over compentatin'

Am I honest when I tell you

That I have nothing to hide

Or am I trying to fix something inside?

Why am I so critical critical

Wondering how that it got so far

Tearing my down right from the start

When will I learn that it's not my fault?

Why am I so critical critical

I've never been so afraid of myself

And I'm too proud to ask for help

Guess I gotta work with the cards I'm dealt

Why am I so critical? critical

Wondering how that it got so far

Tearing my down right from the start

When will I learn that it's not my fault?

Why am I so critical? critical

I've never been so afraid of myself

And I'm too proud to ask for help

Guess I gotta work with the cards I'm dealt

Why am I so critical? critical

Wondering how that it got so far

Tearing my down right from the start

When will I learn that it's not my fault?

Why am I so critical? critical

I've never been so afraid of myself

And I'm too proud to ask for help

Guess I gotta work with the cards I'm dealt

Why am I so critical?
