Lyrics
I’m losing faith
I am experiencing a loss of faith.
I’m losing patience
I am running out of patience.
I can’t think straight
I am having difficulty thinking clearly.
This human nature gives me the creeps
This aspect of human nature unsettles or frightens me.
Who are you at your worst
Who are you when you are at your worst?
Show me everything first
Show me all aspects of yourself before I commit.
I need to make sure
I need assurance before making a decision.
I give too much away
I tend to reveal too much about myself.
I don’t get back what I put into you
I don't receive reciprocal efforts in return.
I could take my love and put it to use
I could redirect my love for a more practical purpose.
I need some other way to keep you around
I seek alternative ways to keep you in my life.
So you hold me down
You anchor me, but there is a potential downside.
But some people take advantage
Some individuals take advantage of my kindness.
I don’t think they could manage
I doubt their ability to handle situations without my help.
Without my good intent or my helping hand
My good intentions and assistance are vital to them.
And they make me re-examine
They force me to reevaluate my identity and purpose.
What kind of man I am and why I’m around, oh
I question the type of person I am and why I exist.
I like happy people who put trust in me
I appreciate happy people who trust me.
See me as their equal but look up to me
They see me as an equal but also look up to me.
It's when passion, ego start confronting me
Conflict arises when passion and ego come into play.
I need a place to hide but I can’t so I’m–
I need a refuge but find it challenging to escape.
I’m losing faith
I am experiencing a loss of faith (repeated).
I’m losing patience
I am running out of patience (repeated).
I can’t think straight
I am having difficulty thinking clearly (repeated).
This human nature gives me the creeps
This aspect of human nature still unsettles or frightens me (repeated).
Who are you at your worst
Who are you when you are at your worst? (repeated).
Show me everything first
Show me all aspects of yourself before I commit (repeated).
I need to make sure
I need assurance before making a decision (repeated).
I kill them with kindness
I handle challenges with kindness, sometimes blindly.
And give it out blindly
I offer guidance to anyone, even at the expense of my well-being.
Give anyone guidance
Supporting others is important, regardless of personal sacrifices.
Even if I get a stitch in my side from a sidekick
Even if it causes physical discomfort, I extend help.
And no, I don’t listen to my friends
I disregard advice from my friends.
I don’t hear it when mama call it
I ignore my mother's calls.
I don’t get it 'til I get what I always had coming
I only comprehend the consequences when they affect me directly.
I thought halfway people would put trust in me
I expected more trust from people halfway.
See me as their equal but look up to me
They no longer see me as an equal but rather as someone to be admired.
Now it’s passion, egos and it fucks with me
Now, dealing with passion and egos disturbs me.
I need a place to hide but I can’t so I’m–
I crave a hiding place, but it remains elusive.
I’m losing faith
I am experiencing a loss of faith (repeated).
I’m losing patience
I am running out of patience (repeated).
I can’t think straight
I am having difficulty thinking clearly (repeated).
This human nature gives me the creeps
This aspect of human nature still unsettles or frightens me (repeated).
Who are you at your worst
Who are you when you are at your worst? (repeated).
Show me everything first
Show me all aspects of yourself before I commit (repeated).
I need to make sure
I need assurance before making a decision (repeated).
