"Being Me" lyrics

I'm so used to running from my feelings if it's negative
Yeah it's repetitive but I should probably stay with it
Everybody 'round me saying that they're happy and complacent
Like am I really the only one that's chasing it
Chasing it embracing it
Instead of bottles on the table to replace it with
I need some time from my mind
Need some space from it

I've always been told when you're feeling low don't let it show
But as I'm getting older I'm letting go what I used to know

I've been climbing
9-to-5
Been tryna rest in peace
Tell me where's the silver lining
I can't find it if I can't sleep
Strapped into this roller-coaster when it's over
I'm still feeling lonely
There's no easy way to say this
Guess I need to be OK with being me

Ever since I started looking in the mirror it killed the fear of never knowing if I'll ever get a hold of it
I'm not saying that it's easy but believe me once you're pointed in the right direction you can finally roll with it
Rolled with it I noticed it
When I finally hit the floor and didn't croak from it
Now I'm closer to the life that I'm supposed to live

I've been climbing
9-to-5
Been tryna rest in peace
Tell me where's the silver lining
I can't find it if I can't sleep
Strapped into this roller-coaster when it's over
I'm still feeling lonely
There's no easy way to say this
Guess I need to be OK with being me

Being me
Guess I need to be OK with being me

I've always been told when you're feeling low don't let it show
But as I'm getting older I'm letting go what I used to know
