Stranger to Change

You're talking like this

But you're living like that

Taking no risks

Gaining nothing right back

You're a stranger to change

Yeah

I used to follow the action

I used to yearn for the change

Back in the day, was addicted to seeing new scenery

Loved going sunny to rain

I wasn't content with the same

Day to day cycle, I wasn't real fond of the patterns

And roads that were paved

I had a vision for life at its peak

And I think it was me and myself in that lane

But I don't

Think I arrived at that destination

Without taking some chances

How you gon' flourish in life

If you never go water the seeds you initially planted

Just kicking your feet up and cruising

Ain't really the diet of trying to become a champion

How you gon' talk about winning

When you take your time for granted

You're talking like this

But you're living like that

Taking no risks

Gaining nothing right back

You're a stranger to change

So life ain't going your way

You're talking like this

But you're living like that

Taking no risks

Gaining nothing right back

Everyday is the same

You fell in love with the pain

And can't escape those chains now

I was a mess

I opened the door but I have to confess

I overthought every moment, the weight of the burdens

Impaired every part of my chest

My negativity led to me to feeling unworthy

I feared to take even a step

I looked at change and the future that waited

And I turned my back to return to my nest

Without growth, without my pride

Without that sparkle I had in my eyes

Without that kid in my heart with no license

That carried the grit to be someone with drive

Without a care in the world if my dreams

Were burned to the ground and never revived
