My Own Limitations

I remember when I didn't have control

No human power could stop me

I'm on a roll

The emptiness inside my chest I ignored

For sure

But I know, I've been there before

I live my life like I'm the center of the Earth

Took what I wanted, it was all undeserved

I was left, depressed and a mess

Arrested, and it's what I deserved

But I know, I've been wrong before

I've been wrong before

I'm done picking myself off the floor

I'm not doing this anymore

I'm not doing this anymore

I am walking myself out the door

We're not doing this anymore

We're not doing this anymore

No!

Remember then

All the time that we spent together

Whatever

You saw how poorly it went whenever

I let you get inside my head

I should have listened to what everybody said

Because I know, I've heard that before

And since we first crossed paths

You had me kept in and trapped

Your frequent itch needed scratchin'

No matter what happens

Catch me in your grasp

But I blinked and it passed

So now we can welcome me back from the brink of disaster

But I know, I've said that before

I've said that before

We've been holding back for way too long

It's time to stand up and be strong

Time to stand up and be strong

Yeah, yeah

We've been holding back for way too long

It's time now to right what is wrong

It's time now to right what is wrong

Yeah, yeah

And I will stand atop my own rock bottom

No man can stop my climb

Said I will stand atop my own rock bottom

As both hands conduct my rise and I will

Ride out

My own limitations

And pick up after every fall

And I will ride out

Your old instigation

I never needed you at all
