Lyrics

I'm ashamed to be who I am

I feel ashamed of my identity.

I put no effort in and I hide my cam

I don't make an effort and avoid being visible.

Even though I could be who I want to be

Despite the potential to be someone else, I resist change.

Why would I do that I'm a catastrophe

I embrace being a disaster and resist positive transformation.

I only have like three GCSE's

I have a limited academic achievement with only three GCSEs.

McDonalds wouldn't hire me if I got down on my knees

I doubt even McDonald's would hire me, emphasizing my difficulties.

I'm seventeen and I look like I'm twelve

Despite being seventeen, I look much younger, affecting my self-image.

My voice is quite high unlike everybody else

My voice is distinct, standing out from others.

All my mates have massive beards

My friends have matured physically, making me feel left behind.

I think wow I should have that in like twenty years

I envy my friends' beards, realizing it will take me a long time to grow one.

Do you really wanna see who I could be

Questioning if others truly want to see the potential in me.

Nah fuck that man I'm a catastrophe

I reject the idea of self-improvement, embracing my flawed identity.

All my mates are getting cavities

My friends face dental issues, possibly reflecting broader life challenges.

And they pay the bill by stealing from a charity

They resort to unethical means (stealing) to cope with financial difficulties.

Safe frame of mind not like my old guy

Contrasting my mindset with that of my father, suggesting generational differences.

White lightening cider costs under a fiver

Reference to a cheap alcoholic beverage, possibly related to escapism.

Catastrophes hardly ever see

Catastrophes are rare occurrences, emphasizing the uniqueness of the speaker's situation.

So I'll get some goggles that smoke up when I breathe

Planning to use goggles that symbolize obscuring one's vision to cope with reality.

Do you really wanna see who I could be

Reiteration of resistance to change and self-improvement.

Nah fuck that man I'm a catastrophe

Strongly affirming the acceptance of being a catastrophe.

I'm a catastrophe and I can't breathe

Emphasizing the speaker's identity as a catastrophe, struggling to breathe metaphorically.

Well I'm a catastrophe and I can't see

Repeating the theme of being a catastrophe and struggling with vision.

I'm a catastrophe and I can't breathe

Reiterating the challenges of breathing, reinforcing the catastrophe identity.

Well I'm a catastrophe and I can't see

Continuing the theme of being a catastrophe and struggling with vision.

Catastrophe and I can't breathe

Repetition of the catastrophic identity and breathing difficulties.

Well I'm a catastrophe and I can't see

Restating the theme of being a catastrophe and struggling with vision.

Catastrophe and I can't breathe

Repetition of the catastrophic identity and breathing difficulties.

Well I'm a catastrophe and I can't see

Continuing the theme of being a catastrophe and struggling with vision.

I'm a catastrophe and I can't breathe

Reiterating the challenges of breathing, reinforcing the catastrophe identity.

Well I'm a catastrophe and I can't see

Continuing the theme of being a catastrophe and struggling with vision.

Catastrophe and I can't breathe

Repetition of the catastrophic identity and breathing difficulties.

Well I'm a catastrophe and I can't see

Final repetition of being a catastrophe and struggling with vision.
