Common Denominator
Navigating Life's Common Denominator: A Struggle for Self-Discovery
Lyrics
I'm bragging yet stagnant
I boast about my abilities but remain unchanging
And time stays in fragments
Time is fragmented and does not flow smoothly
They all say I got talent
Others acknowledge my talent
But my doubt clings like a magnet
Despite recognition, self-doubt sticks to me strongly
Seems like everyone's just passing me by
It seems like everyone is surpassing me
Feels like I've been kicked in the throat too many times
Experiencing repeated setbacks and challenges
I know things change and people move on quickly
Aware that change is inevitable, and people move on quickly
But I know that common denominator
Identifying a common factor in these situations
Well it must be me
Acknowledging that the common factor is oneself
I'm absent then I'm magic
Shifting between being absent and exhibiting magical qualities
Confinement becomes thematic
Feeling confined, and this confinement becomes a recurring theme
I host the manhunt then say it's tragic
Leading a pursuit but deeming it tragic
And every time you call it's just static
Experiencing communication issues, represented by static
Seems like everyone's just passing me by
Sensing others moving past without notice
Feels like I've been kicked in the throat too many times
Enduring numerous hardships and obstacles
I know things change and people move on quickly
Recognizing the swiftness of change and people's movements
But I know that common denominator
Reiterating that the common denominator is oneself
Well it must be me
Affirming the belief that one is the cause of the challenges
I tell myself to let it go
Advising oneself to let go of negative thoughts
But I'm a self-destructing pro
Despite the advice, prone to self-destructive tendencies
There's compliments then dominance over what goes in my brain
Experiencing a cycle of receiving compliments and then dominance over thoughts
Dreaming big has emotionally hurt me again and again
Expressing how dreaming big has caused emotional harm repeatedly
Seems like everyone's just passing me by
Observing others moving ahead while feeling left behind
Feels like I've been kicked down too many times
Feeling repeatedly knocked down and defeated
I know things change and people move on quickly
Acknowledging the speed of change and people's transitions
But I know that common denominator
Reaffirming that the common denominator is oneself
Seems like everyone's just passing me by
Noting others progressing without much interaction or recognition
Feels like I've been kicked in the throat too many times
Experiencing repeated blows and challenges to the throat
I know things change and people move on quickly
Recognizing the rapid pace of change and people's movements
But I know that common denominator
Restating that the common denominator is oneself
But I know that common denominator
Emphasizing once again that the challenges stem from oneself
But I know that common denominator
Reiterating the belief that one is the common factor in setbacks
Well it must be me
Affirming the self-perceived responsibility for challenges
