"A Proper Introduction" lyrics

I guess my time is up, and I can't say that I'm ready
Spent twenty-five years like a child, and now I'm handed one
And I lost my record deal that I spent my whole life working towards
Is it wrong for me to say that I don't want this anymore?

And I don't know where I stand with God
And my wife's been paying for me too long
She doesn't care
She thinks that I'll make it

And as the numbers on the scale go up
I know it's on me, but it's so tough
I'll brush it off and blame it on my father

I've found myself in the middle
While I'm sinking a little too deep

As I grow older
When I look at my parents
I see they're normal people, they're not perfect anymore

And I can't keep a friend to save my life
Only have my brother on my side, but it's fine
I don't need anybody else to help me

I've found myself in the middle
While I'm sinking a little too deep
I'll over-analyze like a riddle
If this life's really made for me
I need to turn this ship around
I wanna make my daughter proud of me

I wanna buy my mom a house, I wanna change my ways
But I don't do anything I need
After all the years, maybe I'll lose the weight
But I don't do anything I need
Give my wife a break, maybe just once, get paid
But I don't do anything I need
Live a day where I'm a person I don't hate
But I don't do anything I need
