Overrated
Overrated: Unveiling the Struggle of Self-Reflection and Success
Lyrics
This full frontal suckerpunching
Feeling the impact strongly and unexpectedly
Flavour on my tongue
Sensory experience, something enjoyable
Gets darker and darker
Things becoming more ominous or negative
Every time that I leave home
Each departure worsens the situation
They say if I don't bank it now
Advising to save or secure something important
That I'm throwing it all away
Suggesting risk in not taking action
Yeah, if I keep spinning webs
Engaging in deceptive actions, possibly in career pursuits
I'll never make it in real estate
Doubtful success in a conventional career path
Now the time has come
A crucial moment has arrived
And there's nothing left to love
No remaining affection or attachment
Keep your eyes wide shut
Remaining ignorant or unaware deliberately
You either rot here or you grow
Choice between stagnation and progress
It's not complicated
Not complex, straightforward
I set the pace here
Controlling the situation or circumstances
Just so you know
Assuring others of dominance or control
They say I'm overrated
Public opinion labels as not worthy of the acclaim received
Well keep it coming
Encouraging criticisms or judgments to continue
I'm awake, but I still can't look
Awake but unable to confront self-reflection
my own reflection in the eye
Avoiding self-examination
Still throwing stones to pass the time
Passing time by causing harm or disruption
Got every syllable carefully calculated
Being meticulously intentional
Don't mistake it for blind luck
Rejecting the notion of luck, asserting control
I stacked the deck and cashed up
Gaining advantage through planning and execution
Yet I still can't look my own reflection in the eye
A persistent inability to confront one's true self
So keep my name on your tongue
Desiring gossip and discussion about oneself
And pass it round until I'm numb
Numbing oneself to external opinions
All hopes will fall down, make yourself at home
Encouraging others to settle in
You either rot here or you grow
Choice between stagnation and progress (reiteration)
It's not complicated
Emphasizing the simplicity of the situation
I set the pace here
Exerting control or influence
Just so you know
Reiterating dominance or control
They say I'm overrated
Public perception labels as not deserving the attention
Well keep it coming
Encouraging continued negative feedback
You either rot here or you grow
Choice between stagnation and progress (reiteration)
It's not complicated
Reiterating the simplicity of the situation
I set the pace here
Asserting control or dominance
Just so you know
Reiterating dominance or control
They say I'm overrated
Public opinion perceives as not worthy of acclaim
Well keep it coming
Encouraging continued negative feedback
