"Idle Potential" lyrics

"Idle Potential"

I shed my skin the weight of what I was
A little less regret a little more because
The cracks reveal a better view
I fall apart and flow into
Another day, another fight
I'm wishing for another life
Got these memories I can't forget
A fragile mind is cancerous

I've been wakin' up to the same old mess
Been tryna find a way outta this distress
Stuck up in my head
Knowin' I got idle, idle potential
Got a lotta trauma I can't address
And a million things that I should forget
Runnin' round my head
Knowin' I got idle, idle potential

They say the climb is worth the fall
But I've been bleedin' just to crawl
I see a stranger in the mirror
Searchin' for myself in all the failures

Oh, I wanna know
Is everything I've done a waste?
I wanna know
Am I a memory just lost in time?
A losing fight?
I pick the scars, ignore the signs
I know
There's no going back
I know
I gotta face the facts
I know
Put trust in the process
Meditate, medicate, manifest

I've been wakin' up to the same old mess
Been tryna find a way outta this distress
Stuck up in my head
Knowin' I got idle, idle potential
Got a lotta trauma I can't address
And a million things that I should forget
Runnin' round my head
Knowin' I got idle, idle potential

I wanna reach a higher frequency
Got no one to blame, no one to blame but me
I wanna reach a higher frequency, oh
No one to blame, no one to blame but me

I've been wakin' up to the same old mess
Been tryna find a way outta this distress
Stuck up in my head
Knowin' I got idle, idle potential
Got a lotta trauma I can't address
And a million things that I should forget
Runnin' round my head
Knowin' I got idle, idle potential
