Description: Pre-Order here: distrokid.com/hyperfollow/shirobeatsandcamicat/honesty Hey hey guys! This song ended up becoming a very personal take on me as a creator on this platform, and how I view my progress in the last few years. Not only that, but looking back at the idea of what I thought I was going to make versus where I am now is so vastly different than what I wanted it to be. But I'm working towards my goal every day. Major thanks to Shiro for making such an awesome beat to jive with for this! Check out these amazing people that helped make this video possible: ▼ Shirobeats: open.spotify.com/artist/6ikl2mKOYsek2fUhMj2CTW twitter.com/shirobeats_?s=20 youtube.com/channel/UCTODYF5-i-ndt9QdUWwzsjQ Lyrics: Can I be honest? Listen, I promised myself ten years ago I’d be in a different position than this And I’m pissed, it seems there’s a memo I missed about # makingit Isn’t this perfect? Making the money, losing the time To make the pride of what I make in my mind leave a paycheck less important there remains a sort of pain in my chest I become obsessed, wishing years of my life were mine I’m a smiling face and an open mind An empty vessel you can vent to until you unwind Because that is just the way that I’ve been designed By the life I was chosen to lead I’m a jack of all trades and a master of none I look back now wonder what it is that I’ve done To make me proud of who it is that I’ve become When the mirror isn’t mirroring me I’m at the tipping point and it’s terrifying me Lighting in me a fire I don’t have time to deal with I’ve been anointed; taking the emotional hit By being a safety net, not searching for myths Like the one about being who you want to be And always trying to follow your dreams? Jeez-- It rings in such a hollow way than how it used to And seeing that piece of me die is such a goddamn tragedy I’m a smiling face and an open mind An empty vessel you can vent to until you unwind Because that is just the way that I’ve been designed By the life I was chosen to lead I’m a jack of all trades and a master of none I look back now wonder what it is that I’ve done To make me proud of who it is that I’ve become When the mirror isn’t mirroring me I’m a passing glance soon to forget An whisper that you never can catch what was said With a life I could have lead if I’d made the bet And tried to finally believe in me I’m a piece of art in a gallery The painter couldn’t find a reason to ever complete So what the whole world thinks is what I’ll seem What purpose, for you, will I be?
