I Think I'm Okay
Resilience in Chaos
Lyrics
I scratch and claw every day
I face challenges and struggle daily
And I am far from okay
I am not in a good state of mind or well-being
I plow ahead and take it on the chin
I persevere and accept difficulties
But, I ignore what they say
I don't pay attention to what others say
Make moves in silence my way
I make progress quietly in my own way
I'd kill myself before I let them win
I would rather harm myself than let others succeed against me
Come on in
Inviting someone into my life
I'm not sure why you'd want to walk in these shoes
I question why anyone would want to experience my struggles
A monster driving everything that I do
I feel like a monstrous force influences everything I do
I look around and all I see is smoke
My surroundings are unclear or chaotic
I'm not the one you want to try and provoke
Don't provoke me because I'm not the one to mess with
I'd lay this whole world to waste
I would destroy everything for a chance to make you suffer
So I could give you a taste
I would go to extremes to make you experience pain
Swallow it down until you choke on it
Force you to confront and struggle with the consequences
Distorted image of self
I have a distorted view of myself
In my own personal hell
I am trapped in my own personal hell
It's obvious I never dealt with it
I haven't dealt with my issues, and it's evident
But the truth always comes out
The truth will eventually surface
Despite my thrashing about
Despite my struggles, the reality becomes clear
It's plain to see I'm finally leaning in
I am finally acknowledging and confronting my problems
Not again
Expressing reluctance or frustration
I'm not sure why you'd want to walk in these shoes
Questioning why someone would want to understand my difficulties
A monster driving everything that I do
A monstrous force influences everything I do
I look around and all I see is smoke
My surroundings are unclear or chaotic
I'm not the one you want to try and provoke
Don't provoke me because I'm not the one to mess with
I'd lay this whole world to waste
I would destroy everything for a chance to make you suffer
So I could give you a taste
I would go to extremes to make you experience pain
Swallow it down until you choke on it
Force you to confront and struggle with the consequences
People will throw you away
People may reject or discard you
This whole thing feels like a game
Life feels like a challenging and unpredictable game
I swear to God you won't believe this shit
An unexpected and unbelievable situation
God damn
An expression of surprise or frustration
But, I will never back down
I will never give up or surrender
I always turn it around
I always find a way to overcome challenges
My skin is burning and the fuse it lit
I am under intense pressure, and things are about to explode
I'm not sure why you'd want to walk in these shoes
Questioning why someone would want to understand my difficulties
A monster driving everything that I do
A monstrous force influences everything I do
I look around and all I see is smoke
My surroundings are unclear or chaotic
I'm not the one you want to try and provoke
Don't provoke me because I'm not the one to mess with
I'm not the one you want to try and provoke
Don't test or challenge me
I'm not the one you want to try and provoke
